You have no clue
About what exactly do you think I have no clue?

If it's whether or not you actually understand natural selection, then prove me wrong:
In your own words explain the underlying concepts of natural selection.

KJ obviously doesn't understand natural selection. It behooves him to understand this fact.

How exactly is trying to help someone to realize that they don't understand something an ad hom?
When faced with his argument you simply claim that he doesn’t understand rather than refute his argument or demonstrate exactly what it is that he doesn’t understand.

I understand that you like to think you do , but when you post things like the following, it's clear that you don't.
[quote]I agree, but which came first the cold or the fur? If fur then is there some designer
pushing out next generations required traits before they become necessary? The
ways these things are discussed you'd think there was a plan and purpose behind ...[text shortened]... an He abide in anyone?".

Do you think that this individual actually understands the resurrection?

I wasn't trying to "refute his argument".

I was trying to make KJ aware of the fact that he still doesn't understand natural selection.

Do you ever think anything through?

KJ has not put forward an argument.

He has been asking lots of questions which I have had the
patience to answer. But many of his questions demonstrate
his total lack of basic knowledge and he is asking me to
defend ridiculous ideas which no evolutionist would ever subscribe to.

Based on your questions it's excruciatingly clear that you still are unable to understand even the basics of natural selection - even though it's been explained and re-explained to you countless times.
Alternatively you don't understand Kelly's question because if you did you would come up with something better than 'you don't understand natural selection'.

I agree.
Please read my previous posts.

Natural selection DOES NOT change DNA.

Consider this:
when food becomes short do you agree or not agree that taller animals will survive better?
when the climate becomes colder do you agree or not agree that having slightly thicker fur an advantage?

It's just small changes.

Which is why Natural Selection cannot prevent
species going extinct in times of radical change.
Did you see me say natural selection does change DNA?

Did you see me say it?

It was implied in one of your questions.
Review what you have written.

I thought I was helping you by answering your questions
but it seems your quest for knowledge was not sincere.
