There are none so blind, as those who refuse to see. The evidence is in fact overwhelming. That you choose to disregard it does not make it unscientific.

When you show me an empty room, then want to brag about the expensive furniture in it, your complaint is rather empty. I don't choose to disregard anything. I'm looking at the same material - I'm just not going beyond what can factually be stated about the material. You are. And that is your problem. You can't support your conclusions. You present one fact - the existance of a bit of matter (a partial skeleton), and from it you extrapolate a book. There is a limit to what fosilized bone can tell you. And that limit does not give rise to a book. Your suppositions and unfalsifiable conclusions may fill a book; but, that isn't science. I don't disregard what you present. I simply read it, assent to the actual evidence (the bones) and correct the conclusions beyond that by noting there is no support for the conclusion beyond wild supposition and speculation. You want your speculation regarded as fact and assert it as though it is by default. That is the MO of your crowd. And it is improper and unscientific. What's more, it always has been. But you've gotten by with it as a community for so long, that you're insensed that anyone now dares call you on it. Get used to it, it's getting worse every day for you. You'll have to produce results - real results. And IMO, you can't.

Micro-evolution has nothing to do whatsoever with the larger theory? Micro-evolution is the basis for the larger kind.

Just love spinning them wheels in hopes someone will be fooled - don't ya.

The room is fully furnished, dude. You can choose to discount the chairs as evolutionist hyperbole, and ignore the couch because some geek with a Ph.D. says the couch is impossible from evolution, and ignore the table because some other geek says that he has mathematically proven that the table is not there.

The evidence for evolution is overwhelming.

There is NO SUCH EVIDENCE for design. The best they can do is make up a bunch of phony, debunked reasons why they think evolution didn't happen.
