I have problems with parthenogenesis, but not evolution. It seems, from the article, many of the complaints are about parthenogenesis, the creation of life from that which was not life.

I would like to know how many of these scientists are biologists, geologists, or paleontologists. I'm not impressed that a dentist or psychologist doesn't believe in evolution.

I believe you mean abiogenesis. Parthenogenesis is basically virgin birth.

Parthenogenesis is an observed fact.

It is "A form of reproduction in which an unfertilized egg develops into a new individual, occurring commonly among insects and certain other arthropods."

What you mean is 'abiogenesis' which is not observed and is not a fact, just like evolution.

And you really shouldn't be impressed no matter who believes in evolution. You should study it yourself. And that means getting opposing views... from the opponents, not from the adherents.

Anyway...

Here's a real scientist who went from Darwinist to YEC because he actually *looked* at the data.
