Watch evolution happen before your eyes

Post by Zeropoint »

Creationists like to claim that you can't observe evolution happening and therefore it's not scientifically proven. Despite that being completely incorrect, we haven't had a clear and visually dramatic example of evolution in progress . . . until now.

The MEGA-plate is a two-foot by four-foot custom petri dish that makes bacterial evolution not just visible, but striking; and it creates a visual tree of life right in front of your eyes.

Creationist - but that's micro evolution, duh.

Creationist who writes to my local newspaper - that's an example of natural selection, not evolution. :roll:

In all honesty, I posted this mostly because I thought it was REALLY COOL, not because I thought it would change anyone's mind.
