It is easy enough to make up stories of how one form gave rise to another, and to find reasons why the stages should be favoured by natural selection. But such stories are not part of science, for there is no way to put them to the test."
I think the continuation of the passage shows clearly that your interpretation (at the end of your letter) is correct, and the creationists' is false.

You seem to think my interpretation is a false creationist's interpretation. WRONG! I am simply interpretation Collin Patterson's words literally, "But such stories are not part of science, for their is no way to put them to the test." The problem is the Darwinists' use of "justso stories," because there is no way to put them to the test.

All quote-miners do the "He said it, I just quoted it" brazen. There's not an ounce of integrity in any of you. You're down to that. A creationist quote mosaic is a lying picture made with little bits of truth.

If you meant the quote the way Colin Patterson meant it in the context in which he said it, it's irrelevant to this thread. We have not been arguing about whether fossil A can ever be said with total confidence to be the direct ancestor of fossil B. (Or even fossil species A of fossil species B.)

If you meant the quote the way you appeared to mean it by waving it around on this thread, it's dishonest.

You still here? Good, because I want to tell you something. First, you have failed to give me your one best quote to examine. I've asked for it at least three times. Second, I've kept a log of your conduct in this thread ... the endless spamming, the several times I asked you to stop ... the times I asked you to give me ONE quote so I could examine its legitimacy ... all that stuff.

Now then, if you pull a stunt like that in any other science thread, I'm not going to wait around. I shall immediately hit the abuse button and request that you be banned as an abusive spammer. This is something I very rarely do, but I'll do it in your case.

So that's where we are. Or rather, that's the position in which you've placed yourself.
