I can’t believe so many otherwise rational Freepers give any credence to either evolution or uniformitarianism. Bothe Lyle and Darwin’s expressed purpose was to “kill” God. For the past 150 years or so the left has fed you hook, line, and sinker the evolution mantra and so many erstwhile theologians and so-called scientists have bought it. 6000 years old created in the image of God.
If you can ignore the evidence and give credence to a story which directly contradicts that evidence and must be accepted on faith then you are not a judge of what is rational.
And don't forget - dinosaurs on Noah's Ark!
