Summations Only

Thank you for sharing with us your precise and detailed analysis of the issue. It must have taken you many years to attain such a complete mastery of the facts, and yet you have managed to express all the relevant information concerning the morphology, genetics, embryology and fossil record of whales in a mere nineteen words, so that one must truly say that you are outstanding not only in your erudite grasp of your subject matter, but also in the concision with which you express your vast learning. Sir, I salute you.

So, no follow-up?People, note that this is his first and only post. Apparently he registered with the forum just for that.

... still waiting.Nothing? Nothing at all?

No. You made that up. Were you asleep in class when they explained the theory of evolution? Well, scientists --- who unlike you actually carry out "the noble pursuit of science" --- think that evolution is well-supported by the evidence and that creationism is stupid shit. Some people are willing to believe anything so long as it's proved by the evidence. They're called scientists. Other people believe without evidence that a talking snake outwitted God, and they are called creationists.

Interesting lie. Why did you tell it?I will not say the same of creationism: if you erased that, it would certainly make a difference. Kent Hovind would have to find a new source of income, and a number of drooling morons would have to find new ways to humiliate themselves on the internet.Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

Obviously. The Bible says that Noah took specimens of "every living thing that hath breath". They are non-kosher, so only two of each kind of whale.

So, have creationists been lying to us all this time?The Institute For Creation Research says "New species do arise, a process called "speciation." Answers In Genesis says "Species do change. Since Darwin’s day, many observations have confirmed this. In fact, new species have even been shown to arise within a single human lifetime", adding: "As creationists, we must frequently remind detractors that we do not deny that species vary, change, and even appear over time".The CreationWiki says: "Species have been observed to form, and Biblical creationism requires rapid speciation following the Flood."Not to be outdone, Creation Ministries International says: "New species have been observed to form. In fact, rapid speciation is an important part of the creation model."So, are all the creationists lying to us about speciation, this "important part of the creation model" which "Biblical creationism requires" ... or are you one of those sinister "detractors" that Answers In Genesis warned us about? You don't believe in the evolution of antibiotic resistance? Ooh, I can see we're going to have some fun with you.Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

Scientists disagree with you. And yet we have persuaded you to admit that there were once living dinosaurs, do we have to do this again?

Well, for example, they could deny that observations made in the present can tell us about the prehistoric past, by saying something like this --- "the results you insist I must accept are not testable for the time period of the phenomena they purport to explain. You have to have testable results to have real science. All your tests can only test within the current time frame, they can't say anything about the prehistoric past no matter how plausible the methodology."You intended this as an excuse for ignoring the evidence for evolution, but it's an equally good excuse for ignoring the evidence for dinosaurs.

And oh how we laughed. And this difficulty would serve as a clue to someone so constituted as to get one.

What strange, stupid, muddled lies you tell, to be sure.

How do you reconcile your insane fantasy with (a) the fact that many evolutionists are theists, and (b) your own admission that evolution "wouldn't debunk the existence of a supernatural Creator God"? Interesting. So according to you it is not true science to know that Saturn has rings, or that daffodils are yellow, or that giraffes have long necks, because we have as yet found no practical use for these facts.Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

Please do amuse us all by attempting to argue for that.

Obviously it's genetically possible: a sufficient number of mutations can turn any genome into any other genome.

And yet the thing you're whining about is in fact the exact truth, as you will now admit:
