Thank you. I was going to say something like that, but not as well.

Or was created as is the more likely. [The AIDS virus]

So either God is malicious or "shit happens." And which position is "ungodly?"

points to you for creativity. Everything you say is like somebody whistling in the dark, not even sure what it is he believes, once it's not light out anymore

That's for sure. I just stuck a pitchfork in you

I didn't mean I was giving up the argument. Just the flames.

And let's not forget all the human and animal, migrations supposedly, out of Africa! Surely the microbes went with the hosts! If not, then the theory of evolution got some problems

Then do not infer that I'm a rapist. You know darn well your theory of evolution holds that the biggest and strongest male in the animal kingdom is the most likely to mate with the females

Did you know that viruses evolve pretty fast? Who keeps yelling, "You need to read more?" If you're going to employ such trifling arguments, you invite people to wonder if you're really ignorant or just being dishonest about what you know.

You neglect to say what problems are being asserted. Microbes are among the only organisms in which evolution can be readily observed on a daily basis. Even high school students could observe evolution in a microbe culture. What problem are you imagining?

I suppose years later we'll hear this was fraud like a lot of other 'missing link fossils'.

A lot of others?
Name a second one after 'Piltdown Man'

One practical Joke by students does not make 'a lot'

True, as you have no idea just what it is you are trying to talk about

Am I supposed to believe you're holding out for the aliens now? Or did the CIA "create" the AIDs virus to commit genocide on Africans?

Your tap-dancing is showing.

How fast do viruses evolve? You are so very ignorant. I suppose you never heard of the study of "slow viruses?" You are the most uninformed non-scientific person on this forum. Better ping the reserves in

It's been a while since we had a real live disruptor in these threads. Caution is advised.

Is it too soon to start speculating about who we have here? The one-liner disease looks familiar.

Only in some species. Certainly not in humans. And not between species.

You have completely sidetracked the discussion from the argument I originally posted, which is that there are species that are physically capable of interbreeding but which don't. Has nothing to do with size or strength.

Righteo. Attack the person, not the argument. You're losing this one, big time

Since Oct 11, 2003

The only question is Jesse or ALS. They had very similar styles.

I see. Rape never occurs in the human species! Thank you for that observation. Thousands of defense attorneys want you on the jury, for you're a bright one!
