OK. who are you and what have you done with the real jlogajan? YOu know, the one who was able to put up a respectable arguement in our little online mental exercises. Seriously, have you been drinking tonight? You seem rather off your game.
How can you not see in your above statement EXACTLY what Prof. Johnson was talking about. For you all the evidence is viewed through a materialst lens. OF COURSE we see the increasing sophistication in the fossil record. The issue is HOW did it get there? Who or what was the information source which produced that massive increase in sophistication? You are talking like the increase in sophistication itself is proof that evolution did it all.
THat could only be because you assume in advance that evolution alone will be responsible for all changes, thus when changes are found, you conclude that evolution occured. HELLO!!!!
And his eyes perceive the metaphysical? Nice work if you can get it.
