But you didn't answer the question. Where did the info come from to make bacteria resistant to antibiotics?
Serendipper I am not a scientist, are you? Nevertheless, I think you may have an opinion on this 'bacteria resistant' topic and I am interested to read what you have to say, in the meantime I will do some reading up on it.
You're not a mathematician but you know 2+2=4 right?
Antibiotic resistance happens when at least one bacteria is a little different from the rest and that difference, which ordinarily wouldn't confer any advantage in survival and may even be a disadvantage, suddenly becomes a huge advantage when the antibiotics kill all the bacteria except for that one. So the lone survivor reproduces and now all the bacteria are resistant to the antibiotics.
It works the same with weeds and herbicide. We spray farm fields with herbicide and one weed isn't bothered by it, so it survives and reproduces and now none of the weeds are bothered by herbicides.
It can work in your garden too. If you pull weeds then weeds that have a long taproot have an advantage, so all you accomplish is teaching the weeds how to resist you pulling them by growing longer taproots that you can't pull.
That is how evolution works. Random changes result in new advantages when the environment changes. The information doesn't come from anywhere, but is a random happening.
Deer have long legs because predators chase them. Long legs are not an advantage because they break easy, but if predators chase them, then long legs are an advantage. If predators go away, then long-legged deer have a disadvantage. If predators return, then short-legged deer have a disadvantage.
If deer run fast, then predators have to get smarter. If deer are easy to catch, then having smarts is no advantage.
I suppose making people arrogant is the purpose of religion.
Let's us get down to the nitty gritty.
She mis-quotes scripture and she knows no one will actually check to see if what she is quoting really lines up to the truth.
I don't know of any 2 people who interpret the bible the same way. What is the truth? Everyone thinks they have the truth.
There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Proverbs 14:12
Why do false teachers always come up with such clever means of deceiving people? Because she is actually very clever and knows exactly how to stop you from thinking for yourself.
She has no interest in truth, but only in constructing a fantasy world to inhabit and insisting everyone else play along.
