I have no overwhelming objection to this interpretation, but I assure you that you will find opposition from creationists on this forum.
There are really three core issues that get debated over an over on these threads: One is whether (from the human perspective) the earth is billions of years old; two is whether life on earth is related by common descent; three is whether natural selection is the shaper that produces the variety of living things. The first two are statements of fact, that can be tested and are susceptible to falsifying evidence. The third is a theory, and is subject to enhancement and modification.
Again, not my axe to grind. My initial interaction with Shubi was back in late November on a thread about a lawyer that was accidentally killed in New York.
His response, which was deleted by the mod, struck me as hard of heart ...
I have no beef with either side on this argument. I've studied it some over the past 28 years and decided that it's very interesting, but not important. I do, however, from time to time, like to poke a stick into one side or the other of the hornets nest :-)
