If you changed your opinion, I would call it maturity. What, in your own terms, makes the term "mutation" something to be afraid of?? >> "I'm afraid.." Which "type of arguments" did I borrow from Greg: (1) asked if you had examined any "original documents"? (2) TOLD you "you've never examined any original documents." (3) asked for your credentials about "mutations". (4) denied the truth of your own declarations (i.e. I told Greg what one, of hundreds, possible event would turn me into a "true believer" and he called my own declaration false!) (5)asked you for historical figures or texts about "mutations". ??? So please state specifically here which of the "same type of arguments" that Greg McRitchie uses, do I use?

"Quite honestly" is a preamble to many a calculated lie. Your "faith" statement does not sound like a true expression of what you really think, but seems like you'd simply like to "buzz me" in order to get into a pitched ad hominem battle and escape.. escape from your original statement, to wit: "No one has ever witnessed a mutation evolve into something that could pass on genetic material successfully without outside intervention to a future generation."
