"Poppycock"???? Oh lovey, don't be like that. :) "What is YOUR version of evolution?" It's certainly not "day turns to nite..." How about we stick to biological evolution or as Darwin phrased it "descent with modification" which claims to be able to account for the origin and present form of all living things. It was with that in mind that I asked a legitimate question: ((do we see non life suddenly evolving into life? Spontaneous generation?)) And you responded in what is becoming an all too typical manner with emotion and crudeness. "Is that a (sic) rebuttle of what I said, or just being an asshole?" I then asked another perfectly reasonable question: ((If Darwinian evolution is true; then why is it not reflected in the fossil record?)) To which you offer nothing but obfuscation and yes, more crudeness. ((What we do see, are relatively trivial changes within already established species.)) Your response: "is a bacterial cell picking up a plastid changing it into a bacterial cell that is now immune resistant to a given anti-bacterial agent "trivial"... or???" Yes it is rather trivial. It's still a bacterial cell is it not? Why don't you tone down the Ad Hominem and the fowl language so we can have a calm, rational discussion? Surely you are capable of that. I'm out for most of the day tomorrow. I look forward to calmer waters tomorrow.
