What Webster??? From Borneo?
1. any various cold-blooded, completely aquatic vertebrates, having gills, commonly fins, and typically an elongated body covered with scales.
Websters Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary - Deluxe.
Whales are warm blooded, don't have gills and have hair not gills. Turtles don't have gills, breathe air and don't have scales.
The point here, is that this is just the kind of redefinition of words (WRONGLY!!!) that Creationistists, (read ID advocates) always indulge in. Change the meaning of words to mean whatever they want.
Evolution isn't FAITH, Creationism is. Intelligent Design isn't SCIENCE, evolution is. You can redefine for the masses all you want and it doesn't change the facts. Just because polls show that a majority of the masses don't understand reality, only points up how shoddy the American education system is, not how knowledgable the people are.
This discussion being a case in point.
And I have to say, I only followed this thread because I found the posts of one John 6.66=Mark of the Beast? so absurdly entertaining. This person demonstrates precisely why ID should not be introduced in government schools in any fashion. (But then, I don't think there should be any government schools at all, THAT would solve the problem.)
The irrationality displayed is beyond classic, it is sheer beauty. Like a Fellini movie. Surrealism at its best.
Yup - a whale meets or exceeds all these criteria, sort of.
