Good post. It is incredulous how closed-minded evo's are about any challenges to their dogma. There is a sort of PC atmosphere around evolution and global warming. Their tactics are to ridicule anyone who even questions how evolution could account for the complexities. They have circled the wagons and are scared critters defending their dogma like some new age religion.

What bothers me most, is I see people who appear to be chemist, physicist etc., or at least are well versed in presenting points, make it sound like this is simply a issue between science and religion. They have swallowed the bait so fully they have not a clue as how the total picture behind evolution has come about, from a philsophical viewpoint as well as the many years of trying by some to make the theory become a reality within the scientfic communities. Meanwhile the minions in large numbers, who have no background nor have the abilities to wade through tons of books and articles on the issues, simply think the whole world of science supports some form of evolution. They watch TV shows such as Nova, Nature, NG, etc., believing evolution is an established fact. Then when you try to reason with those such as we read in this post, that try to make it sound like the public school systems have a perfect right to teach evolution, but not ID for instance, because it is a religious dogma and therefore not allowed to enter the public domain, they show their total ignorance to the real issues at hand, and signal to me they really do not have a scientifically based background in all those diciplines that go into supporting the theory of evolution. They cannot accept the idea there are thousands of scientist and educators, some deans of colleges etc., that believe the many forms of evolution presented as being factual are simply wrong, based on the evidence shown by carefull analysis within those particular branches of science. They seem to not be able to phantom the idea that Intellegient Design is based on current understandings of how life operates. They seldom if at all grasp the warnings by scientist who write articles, papers, etc., pro evolution, that the authors often make the point, that it is only a theory, and has an extremly low probability of correctness.
Hell, one only has to read a 1950's presented paper on Organic Evolution by George Wald from Berkley and see where he goes on and on with theories but then makes it clear that no known mechanisms based on how the chemistries could happen in reality. Put another way. Many of these peoples that push the theory, are in essence writing science fiction. Their minds allow them to write about things that in a lab prove it cannot happen, but they dream on, and they suck the masses into thinking they have proposed a solid piece of scientific evidence supporting the theory. Then the coup de grace, is when the minions start blabing about how so many things in science fiction came to be........it is quite sad at best. The blind leading the very very willing blind.
