I not calling you on anything at all. I am just reminding you that keeping track of stuff like that will hurt you in the end. Water off a ducks back and all that.
Gee, that means it's as valuable as yours. Maybe more.
The challenge was the number of hours, roughly, that the poster had spent studying the casts of fossils or human bones.
My answer would be in the thousands of hours.
You sure put your foot in it there, didn't you?
actually, one can come up with an objective truth from readibg the research of various scientists findings on both sides of the debate. To say that I have to spend time with the actual casts and bones is a bit silly. It would be nice if you could drop what you want to believe and just look at both side objectively. The truth is pretty obvious.
Yes, from all of my research into the fossil record it is obvious that the much needed transitionals are absent. What they claim to be transitionals are not clearly so. There would be so many thousands of different types of life forms turning into other life forms that the debate would have been over long ago. But they refuse to give up and try and conform some fossils to fit their theory. They are just confused and misguided.
One can also come up with good information from doing some of the actual research first hand. Books and websites are nice, but hands-on research is extremely valuable.

To admit that you have spent no time with the actual casts and bones is quite revealing.

I have spent some thousands of hours with these casts and with human bones. I have some right to an opinion, particularly over the folks at answers-in-genesis and the other apologist sites.
You will believe what you want, but don't call it science.
Sorry, that happens not to be the case.
Well, to anyone looking for the truth it is plain to see. I hope you will see it sometime because you are being confused by your darkside...something most all of us have.
If you want to know first hand what the discussion and conversation is like at a site, visit it. Don't pay attention to someone who's obsessing on it and trashing it in general terms.
So, fundamentalists have found the truth and everyone else is confused by the darkside?
You need to get out more.
"Fundamentalists"? You mean those who believe Scripture to be true? Yes, many of us have found Scripture to be true. And Scripture does differentiate between those who trust in Jesus and those who have yet to. Or who never will. I pray you're not one of those who "never will."
He lies.
It takes a special kind of mental obtuseness and ignorance to extol the meaninglessness of meaning.
the truth is obvious to anyone with a little objectivity; fundementalist or not. By the way, I am not one and hardly ever even go to church. Although I probably should. But you are right that I do need to get out more often. I have been doing a little better at that lately.
