That said, I am, without fail, disappointed by every thread ever posted on FR that claims some aspect of evolution has been "proven". I don't think the way to make your case with the undecided like myself is to out and out lie.

An interesting comment from a poster whose name I can't recall seeing in the evolution threads before. Could you help me out and point to one -- just one will do -- example of a thread which makes the claim of "proof"? To my knowledge, all that these articles do is present evidence in support of the theory, which is all that can ever be done. Oh, if you can also provide me with an example of an "out and out lie" I'd appreciate that too. The examples in your post aren't quite sufficient. The article is anything but a pack of lies.

Oh, thanks for coming through on one of my predicted responses. Yours is #2 on my list.

An interesting comment from a poster whose name I can't recall seeing in the evolution threads before. Thus the commonly used term "lurker". Could you help me out and point to one -- just one will do -- example of a thread which makes the claim of "proof"? You'll notice that I said aspect, as in an aspect of evolution being speciation, as in the first sentence in your response as well as the title both claiming speciation, falsely. To my knowledge, all that these articles do is present evidence in support of the theory, which is all that can ever be done. First of all, I used the term "thread" indicating the responses to the article. In addition, it is not the observed phenomena, but the interpretation of what the observed phenomena means which is contrived, just as it is on this thread. Oh, if you can also provide me with an example of an "out and out lie" I'd appreciate that too. Your first comment. The examples in your post aren't quite sufficient. Then you aren't nearly as intelligent as your reply here indicates you believe yourself to be. The article is anything but a pack of lies No, but your use of it is.

Oh, thanks for coming through on one of my predicted responses. Yours is #2 on my list.

I don't know a person on the planet with an IQ over 90 who can't make false statements and then predict responses. I think I'll go back to lurking thank you very much.
