When evolutionists claimed they found a meteorite from Mars with life in it, the report received front-page headlines around the world -- and even then-President Clinton got involved. Yet when even secular scientists agreed that there was no evidence of life in that rock, the story received little attention from the press.

Actually, you'll find that pretty much all the scientists arguing there WASN'T evidence of life in the rock were evolutionists as well.

And the assertion that this is evidence of bias against creationidiots is extra-stupid for a variety of other reasons. First, I didn't know part of creationidiocy was a blanket assertion there's no life outside of Earth, and I don't remember a single person presenting the case that there was life in the Mars Rock dancing around saying it was evidence of evolution.

And secondly, it's blatantly obvious that the media is more interested in a story about life being on Mars than a story about life not being on Mars; has nothing to do with creation or evolution. It's just based on which side is more interesting. NOBODY is excited to read an article about how there's no evidence of life in the moon rock. Also, the people presenting the case there was life went first. That in and of itself got them more coverage.

Is there some reason that you have aimed this blast at me? My post simply said "read later" - indicating that I wanted to come back to it and read it later when I had time. The quote you apparently attribute to me had to be someone else.

It isn't, he was just using that as an example, nothing more.

I agree with the author of the article, what if they did find scientific proof, you have to be willing to think outside of your box sometimes, even if you don't agree with or like the topic. I'm a born again Christian, but I can tell you just about anything you want to know about the theory of evolution, sometimes you have to listen.
