Re: Evolution 101
As for knowing the theory, I have researched it. From all points of few. I have read Scientific Creationism and Origin Of The Species.
That right there suggest some fundamental misunderstandings about evolution. Reading Scientific Creationism and Origin Of The Species, perhaps you meant 'On the Origin of Species..., doesn't sound like research from all points of view.
Simply claiming familiarity with evolutionary theory is less than convincing, people might be more inclined to give you the benefit of the doubt if your questions suggested that you actually had some familiarity with the theories involved, sadly most of them seem to be oft regurgitated creationist strawmen.
As far as the question of recognising offspring and parents goes I think that the cuckoo example and the experiments of Konrad Lorenz, in which he imprinted ducklings and goslings to himself, go to show that your claims for some highly accurate instinctive recognition of the like and unlike are not well supported in this instance.
TTFN,
WK

Re: Evolution 101
There is already a thread on pretty much this question at this page. The only difference is that this is partly framed in terms of cryptozoology. They are discussing exactly the same passages from Job.
TTFN,
