In fact I think, if I've understood their posts correctly, that there are Freepers who think that life is only maintained from moment to moment by a mystical as-yet-undiscovered supernatural force field.>>>

Almost correct [smile]. Leave out "the as-yet-undiscovered," and you have stepped into the world of science as occupied by Kelvin, Pasteur, and Morse. I would say "and myself" but I am hesitant to classify myself with these luminaries, save to say they trusted (and still trust!) in the same sovereign as I...., the Creator/Sustainer described in the old book.

I am often wrong, but I wasn't aware that Kelvin and Pasteur had anything negative to say about evolution. Perhaps you could provide some of their commentary on the subject to clarify your point.

And Morse? Would that be Robert Morse, the physicist and underwater acoustics specialist? Or maybe Samuel Finley Breese Morse, the former portrait painter who became a principal contributor to the invention of the electric telegraph.

Again, I wasn't aware that either of these gentlemen had any expertise with the theory of evolution or anything negative to say about it. Some of their negative commentary (which you seem to suggest exists) would be helpful and educational.
