You call that "smooth sailing?" That's not even smooth lying. How many of those quotes have been exposed as dishonest here? At a glance, at least Gould, Stanley, and Simpson and you used Stanley twice.

You don't make the findings of science go away with a moldy collection of out-of-date and out-of-context quotes. G. G. Simpson was before everything, and he still went on to add we have plenty enough examples of evolution in the fossil record. Gould before he died specifically denounced the twisting efforts of pseudoscholars like Camp.

Again, you can't be telling the truth about what you understand. This is just shameless. What bothers me about creationism isn't that it isn't true. What bothers me is that it's a lie.

Then, one could realize that this particular thread is nominally about a creationist quote-mined compilation and whether that kind of thing flies, but after 600 posts nobody remembers anymore.
