the fact that no one knows everything - indeed, that the sum of all human knowledge is miniscule in comparison to human ignorance - is a source of delight to me: there is so much left to learn. that's what science is about, at root.

NOW I can appreciate this statement. Science is fascinating and I can't wait to see what we find out and yet I am uncertain where it will take us. It will indeed be a wild ride.

There are no transitional species,

See below.

if there were, the Darwinsits would be lifting them up high and trumpeting to the world that they've discovered the "Holy Grail of Evolution".

They're reported in the science journals very regularly, and show up in the newspapers pretty damned often too, son. It's not our fault you have your eyes tightly closed.

You know moog, I have not read enough to know 'which side' you are on, But I like what I see!! frisky alert Wolf sparkle in eye, pant pant pant Wolf Thanks...I think:). Actually, I'm a pretty staunch ID'er, but I don't have a problem learning evolution nor with science. I am content that I know what my beliefs are and I have faith in them and I allow others to have their own beliefs about the creation--one thing that people don't point out is that among creationists there are a lot of differences too. We talked about it once in Sunday School and each of the 10 people had 10 different opinions. We've used science in about every convenience we have today and will have.

I think sometimes we can get too much into something and forget some of the things that really matter in life. That's where I want to put my focus.

Oh crap, I've gotten too serious for too long. Thanks for the comment.

Glad you "wear" pants.

I'm well aware of how they maintain their false beliefs about there being "no evidence" for evolution.

You have it backwards. It's the Darwinist religious fanatics who are ignorant, dishonest or both. Darwinism is a religious belief that has nothing to do with science. Darwinists have adopted the beliefs of various groups and covered them with a pseudo scientific veneer. The idea that current species once looked different comes from various North American beliefs. The idea of humans being descended from monkeys/apes comes from ancient Tibetan beliefs. The Darwinist belief that all life has a common origin is pure religion and is scientifically impossible if life developed without the aid of some Intelligence. A "natural" process would have been able to produce many different life forms from scratch independently from each over a long period of time. The life forms observed after mass extinctions could have developed from scratch as new species if life developed "naturally". Most Darwinists seem incapable of understanding what Intelligent Design means. I.D. looks at biological life and recognizes that the only physical systems that are comparable to biological organisms in terms of structure and regularity of operation are the machines constructed by human beings, generally considered to be intelligent beings. The biological cell is a biochemical computer with molecular memory that is organized in a manner that can be expressed as "0's" and "1's".
