"By all means, go for it!"

Nah, I'll leave that up to the guys who think a theory should be tossed out because it has 'holes'.

"I like how you toss about "new theories" as if they were a dime a dozen."

Nice strawman. LOL

Theories without holes are hard to come by, of course. Like I said, the theory of evolution has its own holes. (But I would imagine that you, and they, conveniently forget that.)

Holes, holes, holes, holes, holes.

The fun part is that when the ID crowd comes up with holes, scientists research it ('magine that!) and eventually close them. Remember the "Irreducible complexity of the human eye?" don't hear much about that one anymore. Then it was Bombadier beetles... silence. Up next was freaking flagella, which for all intents and purposes is done with.

We'd like to thank the ID'ers for drawing our attention to these matters so we could close these "holes."

(YEC'ers, on the other hand, have not been so valuable to science, as they are still stuck on vacuous nonsense from centuries ago.)
