I don't give a damn about Anne's beliefs about eveolution. It is FR rules that we should care about. The rules rule and so far no one has observed the rules.

That's a good question, but I'm afraid I have to answer it "Not this late!" That would take quite a while. I'll try to get something written up in the next few days.
I was actually six-day Creationist up through college (Christian college, officially six-day as well) when I realized that problems with the data that I thought would be addressed at the college level were in fact not. I went from six-day to a period of wild uncertainty (ID? simultaneous six-day and billions of years in some fashion? age-day?) and then settled on theistic evolution (God got the ball rolling) for a while. About six months ago I left Christianity (not over evolution, you can read the post at the end of my profile page for the basic reason why), but my move away from Creationism far pre-dated this and was for entirely different reasons. Ironically my move away from Christianity was prompted by my research into Islam and refuting it, which required a rational defense of some of the OT that I ultimately found I couldn't provide.
Gad, don't you see how pitiful their endorsement of your idea is. It weakens your argument.
When many creationists attempt to do hard-core science, laughter is frequently the most appropriate response.
To deal with Coulter you have to learn how it is she thinks.
If she meant that as humor that's unfortunate, since I've since had to correct the "bears to whales" notion in creationists here.
It seems likely that more people have died from minor wounds to that spot than ever will be saved by ingenious surgical techniques that exploit it. Who again designed that? Some lawyers would like to know.
The above may be true but it sure does not make sense to people who look for a bit of logic and common sense in understanding fossils, history and evolution.
They actually seek it out. Y'know, "standing for Faith, facing derision" makes 'em feel like martyrs.
Faith, sir, it's a sacrament.
Coyoteman, you've shown me this before, and it is intriguing, but what do the dotted lines mean? Also, what evidence suggests that this is a transitional to our species and not to another such as Neanderthal? Where is the fossil record that provides unquestionalbe evidence that supports this chart? Coyoteman, I feel that my questions are valid, and logical. I do not dispute evolution, but I have also been presented with what is in my opinion an equal amount of evidence to suggest that there is a "design" to life. That this design cannot be a result of spontaneous evolution but must have had intervention for it to exist. I will try to find the article I cited earlier from Discover. And, btw, although I cannot exactly cite these articles, I do remember reading others that supported this claim. One article, for example, was from a physicist that pointed to the fact that our own manipulations with atoms and other minute particles is evidence that previous intelliegences could have used their own understanding of our physical world to have created life on Earth.
You must be referring to something else.
Still, it is quite handy isn't it.
The leaders of most Mainstream Denominations are into religion for the retirement package.
Really? Do you have evidence? If not, I'm afraid I'd have to say your unsupported assertion is absurd and ridiculous.
Oh, darn.
Surely you jest.
This is too funny for words. I've already won one case before SCOTUS.
To deal with Coulter you have to learn how it is she thinks.
She thinks? That is, uses the thought process? Like in mental activity that weighs different ideas and evaluates them on the basis of evidence? Do tell.

Which case? And was it truly stupendous or just one of those homosexual rights type tyings?
