You make a good point. I have not studied physics and I don't challenge those who do. I am also aware of a high level of irritation though when someone questions evolution as the article points out. Indeed your response was passionate.I assume you are well informed and have carefully crosschecked each item in each of the proof sources offered but the original poster is also correct that the mention of a challenge to the conventional wisdom raises a lot of heat!

We welcome learned and thoughtful challenges. We just get testy when a bunch of religious fanatics run around touting the writings of a history professor as science. It doesn't take a lot of thought to say that since science cannot explain it all, God did it therefore all of science is wrong. Do you follow?

If it was questioned from a position of knowledge on the subject, that would be one thing. However, the objections to evolution brought forth, time and again, on these threads have been refuted thoroughly time and again. The creationists, by their continued use of these tired old canards, show they have not learned anything from literally years of debate on the subject. One can only assume they revel in their ignorance.
