The author is naive -- there are no problems for creationists. Because no matter how much evidence accumulates, they will still find a way to ignore it. The scientific question was settled more than a century ago.

I’m confused. Did we crawl out of the ocean or into it or did we play around going back and forth?

Our ancestors aren't ichthyosaurs. However ichthyosaurs did descend from land animals that evolved into sea animals. Just like whales and dolphins later did.

Amphibious=”relating to, living in, or suited for both land and water.”

I hope that helps.

I wouldn’t expect anything different than “the science is settled” out of a rigged intellectual game.

There is NO problem for us Creationists. Who made the animal now fossilized in the first place? I think God did that. See? No problem.

“The scientific question was settled more than a century ago”

Yeah the science is settled, the consensus has been reached...evolution happened...thus there is no God../s

Sounds like the reasoning of Global warmists.....the science is settled, the consensus has been reached...men caused global warming and if you disagree with Hanson’s thermal “hockey stick” we will get the Democrats to pass a law to put you in jail(and there is no God)...../double sarcasm!

Really? Your faith is that fragile? I believe in evolution and God. If observed reality doesn't match your understanding of scripture, did it ever occur to you that your understanding of scripture might be off?

Scientific questions are never settled.

I didn’t think evolutionists admitted there were any missing links. I guess there aren’t until they find one? Now we are back to no missing links?
