Awesome! Was that cut and pasted?
Vade and PH, I was wondering if you ever saw the movie Top Secret? There is a scene in the beginning of the movie where an agent runs into a high-ranking villian's office with a report, stating that "such and such prisoners have escaped!!". The bad guy simlpy reaches into his desk and pulls out a nice sized stamp, which he then presses onto the paper. As he pulls the stamp away, the camera is over his shoulder, and you can see that the stamp says, in red, "Find them and kill them". It was a very funny scene, and it reminds me of some of these threads, when the creos show up with the same, pat responses to everything. What say you?
I like the part how, if you can't prove every step, none of it happened. A whole science of not seeing.
How can I reply to you? You have not left us a fossil record of your existence.

"Was that cut and pasted?"
No, it's an original rehash of ID arguments - straight from the shadows this am.
Indeed; there was an attempt several years ago to compile a master list of Creationist arguments, and assign an unique numerical designation to each one, such that we could all reduce the amount of typing expended on these threads. Basically, when a Creationist showed up and invoked one of the standard arguments, the Evo's would look it up, and reply: "Ah; that's #47, to which the standard rebuttal is Evo argument #14.... thank you for participating in the discussion."
Unfortuneately, it did go over very well.....
