If you really believe you are smarter than those who disagree with you but (1) do nothing to explain to them why or (2) believe it without having done any assessment of their intellectual capabilities, then you really are not as smart as you might think you are. That is only a large measure of arrogance.

You are the arrogant one that has not read any of the very long postings providing details and explanations on evolution. The religious fanatics have been given loads of explanations which they reject completely.

Believe me, I am not the arogant type.

And on the reply above, you make my point exactly. Someone does not accept your point so you resort to ad hominem attack? If they have rejected your explanations completely, it could be because you were not convincing, you did not make a good case or they are so entrenched in their beliefs they are not willing to consider another view.

And why are you getting testy with me? I simply answered your question. I'm trying to offer you a little advise, to be nice, and you are jumping down my throat.

I would venture to guess that it is not your views that are being rejected as much as it is that no one is willing to consider them because or your attitude.
