In which case the states of space during those intervals are infinite.

The end result is the same.

Evolution has been well documented as a biological fact, and the theory of natural selection has long since been validated by the scientific community.
Your opening post, and all posts following it, are nothing but pedantery and hot air, a feeble attempt on your part to boast your (un)impressive knowledge of science in general and provide yourself a modicum of prestige amongst hundreds of users who have less fancy degrees from junk science institutes yet far more factually truthful beliefs and far more coherent arguments.

Depends.

It is an upstairs basement or a downstairs basement?

Socialism 56.25

Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a balanced attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a liberal.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a sensible realistic egalitarian with several strong convictions.

It's irrational to think that your 8th grade credentials don't mean jack?
