Clearly the most significant thing to understand is whether the beige colored mouse has the genetic information in its DNA to turn on the lava color in order to confuse evolutionists. Another good question that is overlooked by the author is whether the lava mouse is ever found living in the sand and vice versa.

But then that would make people actually think.

If both mice contain the genetic information to be lava or beige it could have happened to a pair of mice's offspring after getting off the Ark in the second generation (a couple of months after leaving the Ark).

The next good question would be what triggers the color variation, environment, temperature, diet (mineral consumption), the dirt they dig in, amount of sunlight (like tanning).

Posing these questions would have given the article a Design perspective, and we will have none of that.

That is why I contend we need more Creationists posing their theses in peer review journals. Scientific minded Creationists need to go back to school and attain a different set of credentials. A PhD. in theology makes it tuff to get ones articles printed in Journals.

There is currently a college and career recruiting conspiracy among Creationists at church meetings across the country to begin applying "truth pressure" on the flailing scientific community.

There is NOTHING flailing about the scientific community.

Flailing in the creationist community, YES, misquotes, questionable science, and I use that word LIGHTLY, because it VERY questionable, outright lies, etc.

Yeah, you can get ALL the doctorates that you need, but expect at least 75% of them to go with evolution, once they understand the truth and quit getting bombarded with propaganda from the creationist camp. The other 25% will be questioning, and then where will you be?

All those doctorates that you tried to get for the creationist camp will have decamped and moved to the other side and the rest will become unreliable.

Religion is religion, science is science, once you finally figure that out, the better off we will all be.

Young Earth, WRONG, the earth is over 4 billion years old, the universe, closer to 15 billion.

A worldwide flood catastrophy, WRONG, there is NO evidence that a worldwide flood of ANY nature occurred, let alone one that was a mile deep.

No transitionals, WRONG, there are thousands, you creationists just keep moving the goalposts.

Go for it, I would love to see more creationists go out and get an education, then we would no longer have to argue with them, because they would no longer be creationists.
