Those are the details, but what I notice in general is that no evidence or argument ever budges a creationist. Which is funny, because the case is beyond open-and-shut that some kind of evolutionary process happens. You can quibble about gaps and this mechanism versus that one, but the idea that it didn't happen at all is beyond absurd.

I agree with you to an extent, Evolution could have happened in some form, although I see no solid evidences, taken in a whole, point to it's occurance. Evolution may have happened, A creator may have created, but since we both do not have absoulute concrete evidence of either, neither CREATIONIST OR EVOLUTIONIST should close their eyes, only have their Faith.

I am sure you are aware that there are plenty of people who believe in God, and God used Evolution to create or rather to engineer the species.

I personally happen to throw nothing out at this point because the evidences are so sparse, and the agreement between reputable scientists is nothing less than a tangled web of contradictory mish mash. (eg:intermediate species in the fossile record.)

Some kind? I have never seen an open-and-shut case for any kind of evolution (one species converts completely or even intermediatly to another.) I have seen Mutation. Maybe we need to define terms or I need to understand what you mean determines Evolution.

I'm glad you're aware of this idea. Taken to its fullest extenstion, it means you could just let science classes teach science.
