How can I ‘make it about you’ when all I/we had were your replies to go on?

//that interbreeding between species (humans and neanderthal specifically) was necessary for (human) evolution I pointed out that this was incorrect//

The components and data points of the theory have changed so over time there is apparently not much that needs to be ‘correct’ inorder for the theory to work.

Evolution as a model means that like all other models it may be later discarded as false. Does lead to nowhere sound familiar? So as a scientist I would not be wedded to its veracity.

Well you ended where you began, with a diatribe on ‘creationists’ that was your strawman. Just understand that is not required to see the weakness in evolutionary beliefs.

So saying ludicrous things that are obviously untrue about evolutionary theory should be allowed?

Because scientific models are subject to change in the face of new data?

Really?

Really?

THAT is your position?

THAT?

Evolutionary biology explains why there are bipedal apes of this sort, where they likely came from, how long ago they lived, and where you could find more of them.

Creationism explains nothing, no two creationists explanations are likely to be similar and there is no mechanism for differentiating between.

That is not a strawman, it is the truth.
