Nice post, OP, I'm impressed. You sherr do sound you did some real book learnin'.

However, I must ask what this means: "Secondly, if at all possible, let's see some examples other than Viruses and Bacteria... Can we have some higher animal examples, please? If you have any to offer?"

I would have thought in your church's "how to sound smart to a scientist" class they'd have drummed it into your head not to use phrases such as, "Higher animals." Those tiny little viruses you cite have certainly vexed us "higher animals" quite a bit. And I'm sure you, as the "highest animal," wouldn't fare quite so well if I pushed you overboard in the Pacific somewhere. You get the point.

You also wrote: "Remember, the "Fall in Eden" Model predicts that Diseases are with you always, so (alleged) adaptability on the part of Viral Plagues is not a huge surprise to the Genesis Creationist."

Wow, OP, I'd love to learn more about this loving god of yours. Sounds like a bowl of cherries.

Somewhere, nestled deep inside your Post, you had a Point to make. At least I hope so.

But you failed badly. You managed only Sarcasm -- and I do Sarcasm much better than do you, Neophyte.

C'mon. You had a Pont you were trying to make. I'm certain of it.

Why don't you try again -- this time, with gusto.
