I mean, farmers have been selectively breeding desired traits into animals to the point of producing livestock that is completely unlike their wild counterparts. People have stressed simple organisms in labs & used selective reproduction to create things that survive in completely different conditions & consume completely different substances for fuel, so it makes perfect sense to me that changing conditions & sexual selection would produce similar results across millions or billions of years.
I think the idea that some imaginary sky personality exists & designed & made everything with the snap of imaginary fingers is ridiculous, but I am not an athiest. I just think God is far more complex than the cartoon nonsense we were taught as kids. God is in the laws & the structure of the universe that set evolution & the creation of all that is into motion.
