But alas, even today in 2002, we are no closer to finding "the missing links", in fact ALL WE HAVE are a few links

FALSE! You have obviously never studied Trilobite fossiles. There are so many "missing links", it can be down right difficult sorting them all out. Heck, there are so many "missing links", that you can even trace how a species changes as it matures to an adult.

Downright difficult sorting them all out? That would be news to most paleontologists, including Stephen Jay Gould, who have formulated a number of explanations for the relative dearth of trasitional fossils. I think the larger point being missed here is that a lot of what gets passed off as "science" in the world of evolutionary theory is really interpretation and filling in the blanks, much like historical or archaeological research.

Evolutionists see themselves as the biologic version of a Fermi or Feynman, when they actually have more in common with Toynbee.

Sheesh. All fossils are transitional.
