Evolving the Musculoskeletal System

Perhaps the meaning of "risible?"

Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity. It is the mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus. -- Thomas JeffersonFor we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and non-believers. -- Barack ObamaWe see monsters where science shows us windmills. -- PhatIt has always struck me as odd that fundies devote so much time and effort into trying to find a naturalistic explanation for their mythical flood, while looking for magical explanations for things that actually happened. -- Dr. Adequate...creationists have a great way to detect fraud and it doesn't take 8 or 40 years or even a scientific degree to spot the fraud--'if it disagrees with the bible then it is wrong'.... -- archaeologist

The topic, such as it is, was fully and completely addressed in the first dozen or so posts in the thread. There's really nothing of substance left to say, so all that remains, frankly, is to ridicule you.

Remember our old friends the NASA antennae? Those are examples of two "sophisticated systems" that grew without any intelligent input. Go ahead, ignore or misconstrue these away to your heart's content.

No need, you've proven my point.

Two possibilities; either you are deliberately missing the point I was actually making or you don't have the wit to understand it. Either way, there's little point in me, or anyone else for that matter, discussing this with you any further. Not that that's a new development or anything, but it's always good to reaffirm certain truths now and again.

Are you still obtusely missing the point, yes or no?
