Well, you DONT believe in ANY evolutionary theory, you've said so yourself... so THATs the main point... your knitpicking is beside the point.

The point is you said I was a Bible literalist and that was wrong.

I do think evolution can explain many minor changes. The evolution of horses, asses, zebras, etc. for example. I don't think any theory really explains macro-evolution.

------------------------------------------------------

<You certainly haven't been able to say anything conclusive to the contrary.>

It's obvious to me... we just disagree, that's OK you know!


Sure it is. Whether or not you can verbalize why you believe what you do.
--------------------------------------------------

<You combine strongly held beliefs with no reason behind them that you can communicate.>

They're not strongly held actually.... if data changes, then I change my position... they are based solely on reason.


Gee, I think if that last point were true, you'd be able to verbalize why you believe ... or even exactly what you believe.
-----------------------------------------------

The fact that you don't know these reasons isn't my problem... if I were you I'd go find out if you really care.

Heh, you can't even say what it is I allegedly don't know.

I do know what I don't know and that is what exactly is your problem with GMO food. Since you can't verbalize it, how can anyone know? Even yourself.

---------------------------------------------

Same with evolution. We just disagree, you base your opinion on the bible, I base mine on science.

I base mine on what makes sense and doesn't make sense.

You're back to falsely saying I'm a Biblical literalist again.
--------------------------------------------


You know it would be a LOT easier on yourself if you just admitted that, instead of being embarassed by your belief in the biblical account of evolution. Lot's of people do, nothing wrong with it.... not very smart IMHO, but that's just my opinion. Further you wouldn't have to sneak around posting psuedoscience off wacko websites trying to be "scientific".


No, it would be easier for you if I lied and "admitted" I'm a biblical literalist. That would be easier for your empty pretense of intelligent scholarship.
