Re: Micro-evolving tits, milk, live birth & massive brains
Actually, the term "dolphin" is used to describe either a cetacean ("whale-thingy") or a fish which is also known as the mahi-mahi or dorado.
(Coryphaena - Wikipedia)
A submariner's "dolphins" depict the fish.

And, yes, I did post before having worked my way completely through the thread.

Of course, if Dr. Mortimer's surmise should be correct and we are dealing with forces outside the ordinary laws of Nature, there is an end of our investigation. But we are bound to exhaust all other hypotheses before falling back upon this one.
(Sherlock Holmes in The Hound of the Baskervilles)
Gentry's case depends upon his halos remaining a mystery. Once a naturalistic explanation is discovered, his claim of a supernatural origin is washed up. So he will not give aid or support to suggestions that might resolve the mystery. Science works toward an increase in knowledge; creationism depends upon a lack of it. Science promotes the open-ended search; creationism supports giving up and looking no further. It is clear which method Gentry advocates.
