I do not believe that the world was created in 7 days 6,000 years ago.

Um, but your boy Duane Gish does, in fact, all of his books and speeches speak to this.

I think it's patently obvious to even the most casual observer that evolution of some sort takes place

Is it then, so very difficult for you to come to grips with the fact that maybe a bunch of small changes over time equal a big change over more time? (not to mention punk eek, I don't want to hurt your brain).

If an insect, or even to use the better example of a virus has more reproductive events in a a few decades, or a few centuries than man-kind has ever had over it's 2+billion year existance, then why have we changed so much, and they have changed so little?

Ok, now we know you're just a goof, and certainly no scientist. Dude, do you have even the faintest idea regarding evolutionary theory? This sentence certainly proves that you don't. Go get you dictionary and look up, "niche." This will help you on your way. (Of course, I can't ignore the fact that you apparently think mosquito's today are the same as mosquito's of the Carboniferous. They were the size of freaking helicopters. And, of course, viruses evolve rather rapidly, no? And since you are such a scientist and will be researching all this stuff, try to figure out why your example of the mosquito, which carries a certain illness called malaria, while not viral, has some interesting evolutionary constructs. Hint: search "malaria and sickle cell anemia."

I'll let my "snickering cronies" address the rest of your post, if it's even worth it.
