Re: I'll Play
You know, i agree with you when you say that laypeople do not know enough about evolution, however, its been my experience that this usually leads to them rejecting it more than accepting it.
When they do get a handle on it, however, they usually accede the point.
But as mentioned, scientists, on the other hand, usually do know the facts supportive of evolution, so your argument falls away, concerning them.
I think it must be said, that any scientist worth their salt, would love to be the one who found clear and verifiable evidence that turned the ToE on its head. Nobel Prize winning stuff for sure!
Edited by U can call me Cookie, : spelling!

"The good Christian should beware the mathematician and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine man in the bonds of hell." - St. Augustine
