"No one outside of the willfully obstinate questions the idea that new life forms evolved from older ones, a process conclusively illustrated in biology and the fossil record.
We've got a whole lot of these folks on this forum"
Actually, it seems to me that the first paragraph was even worse than the one medved quoted. Just because someone continues to disagree with your ideology does not mean they are willfully obstinate. In addition, there is absolutely nothing factual in your post that refutes anything dealing with the evolution debate. It is all an ad-hominem tied to a totally unsopported statement that science backs your view. It is not a statement of opinion that persuades others but facts and reasoning and I do not see any of that in your post.
