Its intent is summed up in this phrase from the title "Don't let science get you down, Timothy" - namely, to encourage the reader to look and see.
From the excerpts you have posted, and your general comments over the past year or so, it sounds like Timothy is religious, and anti-science. Certainly your proclamation in the above post that the final answer is religious in nature ("proclaiming Christ") does nothing to accredit this as a work of science. Rather, it does the opposite.
You seem to be doing pure apologetics. Why can't you just admit it, and give up any pretense of doing science?
Coyoteman..it sounds like Timothy is religious, and anti-science
Irish...Webster’s “American Dictionary of the English Language” (1828) defines science as: “In a general sense, knowledge...the comprehension or understanding of truth or facts by the mind...”
Note that science is all about the metaphysical or immaterial realm. The reductionism of evolutionary humanism has reduced man’s immaterial mind and its immaterial capabilities to the material, that is to say, man’s immaterial mind is reduced to a material brain while the minds immaterial capabilities have been reduced to brain secretions, brain waves, and genetic material from bacteria, fish, lizards, apes, etc. As for science, it too has been reduced. It now languishes within the anti-intellectual and anti-truth strait-jacket of the sensory realm. Science, in other words, is now scientism, a religiously held ideology awash in mysticism, hypocrisy, out-right lies, deception, etc., which on principle, cannot account for how it ‘knows’ anything, which is the reason why it is awash in mysticism, etc.
I know that this is a difficult concept for you, Coyoteman, but it is nonetheless true that one can be religious yet NOT "anti-science" at the same time. Take Isaac Newton for example.... Faith and reason just naturally go together.

***I lost a lot of valuable time many years ago when I first ran across that word, “apologetics”. My initial impression was, “why would someone need to apologize for their belief, what a waste of time & effort”. But for the purposes of helping some other souls that might struggle with the same viewpoint and lose that valuable time, I will point out that modern christians tend to use the original Greek meaning of the word, rather than the connotation of being sorry for something. The word “apology” comes from the Greek “Apo”, which means Clear, and “Logos”, which means Word. So it is Apo + Logos, A Clear Word, an explanation with solid rationality.
