Antibiotics are a form of selection pressure. Ditto for insecticides or herbicides. It drives organisms down certain pathways.

so the unnatural introduction of antibiotics and chemicals by man is also part of evolution?

Uh, excuse us for a minute Miss I. Your problem can wait, we have to solve the evolution question first.

Don't be hung up on the term "unnatural". Antibiotics, insecticides, herbicides all kill organisms, but some are naturally resistant. Who is left to survive and reproduce?
Ditto for killing organisms and reducing their numbers, things like bald eagles, black-footed ferrets, cheetahs, etc. You create a genetic bottleneck which will affect allele frequencies and future generations.

but what about the Irish? The Irish don't get infections. Infectious germs can't propagate in an alcohol environment.

Is this from the same scientists that are telling me to stop eating meat because of cattle flatulence causing global climate change?

If cow farts are the problem then shouldn't we eat more cows so there would be less cows and therefore less cow farts?

Buffalo Bill was a hero and an enemy of global warming.
