Creation Moment 12/28/2021 - "Tall Order"

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
Psalm 2:4
 
" ... another common misuse of evolutionary ideas: namely, the idea
that some trait must have evolved merely because we can imagine a scenario under which possession of that trait would have been advantageous to fitness... Such forays into evolutionary explanation amount ultimately to storytelling... it is not enough to construct a story about how the trait might have evolved in response to a given selection pressure; rather, one must provide some sort of evidence that it really did so evolve. This is a very tall order.... "
