Ok, so I googled the first bogus point, and miraculously, all five materialized on the first hit. Great minds think alike, I guess. The 2nd hit takes them all on , trueorigin.org . Personally, I wouldn't want to get into "facts and logic" with crypto-creationists, it's bad enough in the mundane world of politics. The thing is, the theory of evolution was formulated before Mendelian genetics was widely known, much less the mechanisms of modern molecular biology. It's held up astonishingly well, everything discovered since fits perfectly with Darwinian evolution. It's unfortunate that because it violates the true beliefs of true believers, the teaching of evolution is being suppressed, it's a remarkable story. That's life, though. Of course, true believers are equally adept at suppressing inconvenient portions of Christ's teachings, like the camel and the eye of a needle thing, but that's another story.
