Hi Randman,
I know I'm replying to Mark24's message, but this is actually addressed to you because of the way Mark24 replied, which I quote here:

Well, evidence that evolution has occurred is overwhelming...
Typical, absolute nonsense. You guys can say this until you are blue in the face, but it's still wrong.

If Mark24's point was already clear then just ignore this, but in case not, he's highlighting the pointlessness of replying in this fashion. Both sides can sit in their respective corners and shout
ad hominems at each other, or they can engage in constructive discussion. Which, by the way, is the entire reason this forum exists, to provide a venue where constructive discussion between creationists and evolutionists can take place through effective moderation to eliminate all the crap.
In an ideal world all the members would understand this and there would be no need for moderators. In a slightly better world than this, everyone would only need an occasional reminder. But in this real world in which we live it turns out that there are some people who can not conform themselves to constructive discussion and respectful behavior no matter what.
I know you believe the evolutionist side is just a bunch of lying, thieving hypocrites bent on nothing less than the moral destruction of the western world, but if you're really better than your opponents then you may as well demonstrate it by behaving better.
