Am I drawing you into an argument not concerning you? I posted directly to your post. If that is abuse, press the abuse button. As for blue spew, I almost agree with you on the Scientific American nonsense.
Then I will post directly to your post. You hypocritically talk out of both sides of your mouth. You posture before the creationists as one not believing in common descent with modification. You deflect any rebuttal by protesting that you do.
You attack all the evidence for what you supposedly accept as true. Thus you resemble the lawyers for the California child murderer, lawyers who presented a case in court which tried to undermine points of the prosecution case which they knew to be true.
I don't know why I protest at this, except that I'm tired of seeing it in my reply queue. God knows you're a self-discrediting, obvious humbug.
