To: Bigh4u2; b_sharp
For the moment I'm running with the idea that Bigh4u2 genuinely wants to understand the scientific viewpoint.
Bigh, the reason for b_sharp's "sharpness" is that in these threads we often get new creationists with what they think are "gotcha" questions that somehow haven't occurred to millions of professional biologists over 150 years. Usually these people turn out to have no interest in actually understanding why biologists overwhelmingly believe that the evidence supports evolution, and their unwillingness to learn (despite a common pretence of interest) can get very irritating. I am sure that you aren't like that though.

Thanks.
I truly do wish to know.
I finished high school but was never able to afford to go to college.
Everything that I have learned about, I have either done by reading or asking questions.
I have no 'agenda' regarding ID or Evolution.
Am I religious? Well I do believe in God, but that doesn't mean that God and evolution are exclusive of each other.
I do believe that life must evolve in order to change, because it's environment has changed so drastically over the years.

I understand your skepticism and appreciate your patience.
