So you admit you live in a different world than the rest of us?
That's a silly statement.
And you don't think that could be said for the evolution supporters as well? Posting the same pages over and over. Definitions of theory, etc. We'll all seen them numerous times. Or those who just sit back and call those of us who believe in God liars. Or those who state that evolution is a fact. Yeah, I can see where your side is very well represented on here.

Anything we ever say about you, you try to turn around. But the situation isn't symmetrical. Virtually all of us are totally familiar with creationist materials, the various creationist players and theories, etc. We hear you just fine. We can anticipate you easily and usually do.
Very few of you know jack about what evolution even says, preferring strawmen along the model of, "So, one day a snake gave birth to a bird. But where O where was there another little bird for it to mate with?"
If you know what's wrong with the preceding statement, tell me. If you don't, thank you for making my point.
I'm sorry, I thought this discussion was about Watson and Crick's discoveries about DNA and coding, as stated by the original author.
Are you seriously equating classroom discussion of the implications of Watson and Crick's discoveries in biology (all of the implications), to aliens and pyramids?
Biotechnology is making it hard to defend Darwinism - setting it on its head, in the words of Barry Commoner in this article. Reductionism should lead science closer to Darwin, not farther away...alas.

Children whose science educations are denied exposure to ID implications, even as a controversy, are missing a lot, imho.

Of course, you can always check to see what I've posted. Unlike you, I have other interests besides evo/crevo debates.
My problem is I can't really figure out what the platypus is. Where does it fit with evolution? I'm just fascinated by them. Apparently the first scientists didn't even believe they were real. Shouldn't evolution have predicted a creature such as the platypus?
Is this science? "Where does air come from?"
I was a scientist when I was four if it is.
Are you totally stumped? Is this science?
You can't figure it out either. LOL But I didn't expect you to.
The first (non-living) platypus specimens reaching Europe in the 1790s where thought faked, yes. When should evolution have predicted this? It was already history in Darwin's day.
How does evolutionary theory tell us what the next previously undiscovered life form will be? Why haven't you answered my question on what is wrong with the argument "So, one day a snake gives birth to a bird. But where O where is there another little bird for it to mate with?"
After all, you already must be something of an expert on evolution. You know all that weary stuff we've presented on these threads over and over.
"So, one day a snake gives birth to a bird. But where O where is there another little bird for it to mate with?"
Did you really want an answer to that? You obviously have way too much time on your hands. Maybe you could volunteer to teach science at your local high school.
It is your contention that creationists retain as much from these discussions as do evos. Feel free to demonstrate.
Well, not many mammals lay eggs. I guess you are never curious about anything because you already know everything! I am quite honored you would waste your valuable time trying to explain anything to the likes of me. I am awed by your intellect!
What is evolution's analysis of the platypus? I didn't realize there was one.
Some learn from the definitions I post.
Some do not.
That's very odd for someone in your position. You would seem to be militantly pig-ignorant.
