Have you ever taken any creation courses? And yes, I understand classical evolution and punctuated equilibrium and all the BS excuses from the Humanist religion. Have you ever gone beyond evolution 101? Because if you did, you would know that evolution 101 has been disproved a long time ago, but as a religious foundation it remains. It has been replaced by punctuated equilibrium because of no transitional fossils.

Ever been a fossil hunter? I have, It cured me of evolution quickly.

What is a Creation course and in what department would it be offered in.

I have read Genesis pretty thoroughly and when I comment on it I quote chapter and verse.

You are not doing the same in your commentaries on evolution.

second answer to same post:

There is a math term for the transitional fossil situation but I have no idea what it is.

We have fossils A and B. Wow, there's a gap. Fossil C is discovered and now, more wow, there are two gaps: A-C and C-B.

TA'd it and taught it once. Does that qualify me?

Incorrect. Evolution has not been disproved. In thousands of tests for 150 years it has been supported. And that includes fields of study which did not even exist 150 years ago (genetics, DNA research, radiometric dating, etc.).

There are lots of transitional fossils. Try PatrickHenry's List-O-Links or Ichny's great post http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1410029/posts?page=661#661.

The only contention to the theory of evolution comes from religious people whose beliefs teach them otherwise. Not from science.

Theory: a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world; an organized system of accepted knowledge that applies in a variety of circumstances to explain a specific set of phenomena; "theories can incorporate facts and laws and tested hypotheses"; "true in fact and theory"

Hypothesis: a tentative theory about the natural world; a concept that is not yet verified but that if true would explain certain facts or phenomena; "a scientific hypothesis that survives experimental testing becomes a scientific theory"; "he proposed a fresh theory of alkalis that later was accepted in chemical practices"

Belief: any cognitive content (perception) held as true
