Do you agree that species evolve to adapt to their environment?

All your above statements seem to indicate you do . . .

Yet you hesitate to answer the question.

Interesting.

I have to say, I think we have a winner.

From now on, consider starting a discussion with a Creo by asking, "Do you agree that species evolve to adapt to their environment?"

They seem to, it appears.

Douglass Adams gave a keynote speach at a conference I attended a few years back, and gave this anecdote:

"I was sitting in a plane with a farmer, and he told me he was having trouble with bugs. He said he used spray on them, but the spray was less and less effective every year. I told him that the bugs that lived were the ones that were resistant to the spray, and they were passing that resitance on to their offspring.

He said that sounded exactly right, what do they call that? I said, 'evolution'.

The farmer said, "Oh, I don't believe in *that*"

Interesting, yes?

These folks *do* believe in evolution.

Creation/God...Christianity---secular-govt.-humanism/SCIENCE!

Originally the word liberal meant social conservatives(no govt religion--none) who advocated growth and progress---mostly technological(knowledge being absolute/unchanging)based on law--reality... UNDER GOD---the nature of GOD/man/govt. does not change. These were the Classical liberals...founding fathers-PRINCIPLES---stable/SANE scientific reality/society---industrial progress...moral/social character-values(private/personal) GROWTH!

Are you hard of reading...thinking---comprehending!
