He confirms that even today you can see the evidence in Boas and Pythons that they used to have legs in the ancient past. However, what is observed is a loss of information and not a gain of new information!
While we currently lack a definition of "information" from the creationist/ID camp, I would still like to pose this question:
How exactly is the new ability to move swiftly and efficiently without legs not a "gain of new information?" New, specialized muscles are necessary for these actions.

Well, Origen, congratulations on not answering my question by any stretch of reasoning. I asked how your assertion that gaining the ability to locomote in many different and quite efficient ways sans legs does not equal a gain of "information" and you respond by defending the Bible as history and multiple slights against Marxists and punk rockers (I am having enormous difficulty understanding how punk music has anything at all to do with evolution vs creationism/ID...perhaps you could enlighten me?. Maybe your bout with the flu caused you to misinterpret my question so horribly?
I eagerly await your full attention to this matter.
Yours,
A neo-marxist/punkrocker/liberal/atheist/lesbian
