Wow -- this is dumb even by creationist standards.

Spider fossils are rare, only about a thousand fossil species have been described worldwide, but when they are found they always display eight legs, remarkable eyesight and are—as creationists predict—100% spiders.

Obviously -- if they were one of the pre-spider evolutionary ancestors, they wouldn't be classified as "spider fossils".

How much private sector demand is there for spider researchers?

My company let go a creationist last year. He was always preaching. No one would work with him. It was such a relief!

What really fascinates me is the way natural selection is now described by PBS Nature programs.

They now give the viewer the impression that somehow the animal or insect "willed" a change in their bodies and poof it happens.

That spider there needed to be able to reach its prey by jumping and it is "willed" into the body of the spider by the spider.

Give me a fleeping break.

Another thing - they say that animals can't see color - then why do animals react to the color red as a warning to get the hell out of Dodge?

"During a sophisticated courtship dance, the peacock spider male will raise a single leg, displaying it to the female."

I tried that once and the girl ran screaming from the bar.

The lack of knowledge is hardly the proof of anything.
