Ok, here's the ‘god did it’ proof: an ancient text says god did it. we believe this text to be reliable because it says it is.
I'm a new poster here, been lurking for years. Not trying to mess the shine on your shoes GGG. Obviously you do a lot of research into the subject, but the matrix of knowledge that you're throwing stones at is an intellectually honest attempt to explain a massive inquiry.
To have an intellectually honest discussion, we have to start at-we don't know. Then proceed to build systems of ideas that are subject to the same objective rules of inquiry and proof. The dogma must be the process not the conclusion. Arguing from a conclusion usually winds up painting one in an intellectually dishonest corner.
I think it would help to first distill the difference between what we know and what we believe and to subject all ideas to the same rigor of proof.
One of the greatest aspects of a Constitutional Republic is that the marketplace of ideas is unencumbered.

The data came later, and confirmed Darwin's theoretic construct. Here we see the same pattern of a hierarchy of relatedness and divergence within human populations. For those of you in Rio Linda, the little numbers correspond to the counted number of differences between each group.
