He's obviously quite a bright guy. He's managed to carve a niche out for himself selling anti-darwinism.

Do you have any idea how many bright people with similar degrees disagree with him?

So did you read the post on the retrovirus insertions in Human and simian DNA and how it matches with the expected speciation dates in the past?

Then the similar results on many other DNA foibles?

Your only resort to such evidence is to claim that God placed these DNA markers in place merely to make us think evolution happend and thus question our faith.

Or, perhaps you just interpret Genesis wrong, and God created evolution first.

I'll bet the post I linked is longer, by far, than the whole creation story in Genesis. The Bible just doesn't have any detail on how God performed His creation. And I wouldn't expect it too anyway. Teaching you Biology isn't it's purpose.

Scientists do disagree - that's what is interesting. So it's to be expected people will pick sides. Why is one side given more credence than another? How do you decide which scientists you believe?

As for DNA, I don't know a lot about it, but I do know it is extremely reliable in determining paternity and establishing identity, as in criminal investigations. I doubt anyone would argue with that aspect of it. As for other purposes, I gladly yield to you.
