    Mutations arise randomly all the time, all enviroment does is result in selective pressure(s) upon randomly arising mutations in the population which may be beneficial/advantageous, detrimental/disadvantageous, both or indifferent. Semantics for you perhaps, but clearly we need to make this as simple as possible for the Grug.

    It's progression. You don't start out with warm blooded animals because they appear after cold blooded ones, which appear after bloodless ones, and so on down the line.

    Because it's random and through reproduction eventually spreads. Life reproduces because it can survive long enough to do so, therefore ththe assumption is that these continual mutations which survive are therefore beneficial. All the ones that aren't beneficial do not live ti be passed on.

    Is that so? With all the Vietnamese in Houston, has Bud evolved and stopped calling them "gooks?"

    Oh, for crissake...tell him his god made humans exactly like they are...no evolution involved. That's what he wants to hear.

    Then the question can be changed to: Why did the god give men foreskins if foreskins offend it so much they are required to chop it off to please the god?

    That is a much better, more interesting question than that bullshit about circulation and evolution.

    And you could include: Why would a god that created the Earth, Sun, solar system...and the hundreds of billions of other stars in our galaxy...and the hundreds of billions of other galaxies...

    ...be offended by a fucking foreskin?

    OR

    life started as something with cell layers, then developed into cold blooded creature, and over time developed what mammals use now.

    It allowed creatures to be more active, during cold periods.

    There have been millions of changes and those that turned out to be beneficial, survived.

    Those that weren't beneficial died off.

    Without foreskins, you'd enjoy much less dick cheese.

    Then liberals should be dying off...they do abort their babies and form childless homosexual unions, so there's that.

    Insects and humans are the same thing?

    As far as the "for decades" statement, it's a foolish one and easily proven to be such.
