Even the title has a question mark at the end. No big deal. We shouldn't have a problem with subjuctive expressions in scholarly writings as long as assumptions and facts are labled as such. What overtoasts the buns, however, is the insistence that large volumes of scholarly work regardless of their size and longevity - justify an unquestionable predominance in the academic world.
A simple child can see Intelligent Design all over the place and does not even need words to sense it or explain it, but somehow fifteen decades of ever-evolving evolution textbooks are going to satisfactorily explain away what has been obvious to to an exceedingly great number of people throughout history.
By sheer volume of subtle omissions against a Creator God, and by sheer vice of ommatidial omissions WRT whole systems of being, diehard evolutionists further establish that which is more plain than a brilliantly designed sunrise: An Almighty One made this stuff and is behind this stuff, guiding and sustaining it continually.
"Thou dost protest too much." Thousands of corollaries and tens-of-thousands of books. It's easy, given much time, many words, and conviction of heart, to "dismiss" a Creator God from all consideration. But a person - at least one who has a conscience and comon sense - will always have doubts as to whether those thoughts and words accurately fit objective reality.
So . . . all those big, bad books of knowledge are out there. No doubt one can make them sound as sensible as anything. It's not hard to do. Not much harder than filing down a square peg to make it fit a round hole provided one has the discipline. But who is anyone to declare their theory about origins and destinations of the world as the only one worthy of hearing in an academic setting?
Only a sneering pissant about to run into a three-by-four that he swears does not exist.
You have a firm grasp on reality. Thank you for your cogent thoughts on the topic.
The point about right and left handed amino acids is that in nature they both occur with about equal frequency. In life only the left handed are used. That they are all lefthanded is needed to join them together to make proteins. This is a big problem for abiogenesis and origin of life where supposedly randomness 'created' everything.
