Because you know I know a lot more than you (an understatement) on the topic and that I am making very valid points that you understand.

Actually, you're totally irrelevant. Cover for the Luddites. Only you don't succeed at this.

How quickly you walked away from differences between eukaryotes and prokaryotes and the molecules that define them.

That does have a relevance for this thread, but you haven't made a dent in it. Even the mitochondria which you mentioned also have a relevance of which I assume you're aware. The likely history of such bodies in eukaryotes is another thing that guy whose posts you claim to have not read would toss out with his big ID-er shrug.

You see, you jumped into a conversation. That guy whose posts you have not read thinks you take the fossil evidence for life on earth and say, "Well, He did it that way. Who can say why?"

Can you defend this? Want to stay with mitosis and meiosis for a while? Why does sex matter?

What is the story of mitochondria in eukaryotes?

You see, my point is not that I can baffle with BS. That's your point, that you hope you can.

My point is that there is a story, not that I'm perfect at telling it. The irrelevant Luddites whose posts you don't read are throwing away the story.

"Were it not for the existence of sin in the world, says Calvin, human beings would believe in God to the same degree and with the same natural spontaneity displayed in our belief in the existence of other persons, or an external world, or the past. This is the natural human condition; it is because of our presently... unnatural---sinful condition that many of us find belief in God difficult or absurd. The fact is, Calvin thinks, one who does not believe in God is in an epistemically defective position-rather like someone who does not believe that his wife exists, or thinks that she is a cleverly constructed robot that has no thoughts, feelings, or consciousness."

Um, are you familiar with the term reading things in to things? Kind of like projection.

You have a very fixed and limited view and seem to only be able to relate to preconceived notions in your own little noggin.
