    Darwinian evolution - still a theory in crisis.

    I'm afraid that he and I (and you) don't have a choice in the matter.

    Shucks...thanks. Very true. Well done. Tell him the tiger is member of the family felidae.

    Darwinian evolution - still a theory in crisis.

    Someone asked how definite he was re His non existence and he said 6 out of 7. Why he picked that scale I have no idea (and it's a long way from what I'd personally propose).

    And the angle light reflects off water to create a rainbow. And apparently the time it takes for light to travel the width of a proton is 10^-42 seconds.

    Darwinian evolution - still a theory in crisis.

    Although the question was never actually asked, the answer turned out to be 42. Which most people might think was a random number that Douglas Adams came up with. Whether it was a coincidence or not, 42 is the ascii code for *.

    A 100% actual transitional specimen discovered!

    Again, if you are suggesting that a 2 year old knows more about the evolutionary process than you do, then I'm not going to argue.

    Darwinian evolution - still a theory in crisis.

    True. I should have perhaps described it as a publically available aim. And wouldn't you know it, my auto correct wrote that out as 'biblically available aim'. In one case the change was somewhat clumsy and instead of 'creationists' being changed to 'design proponents' it came out 'cdesign...

    If you're suggesting that some people's grasp of the evolutionary process equates to the level of understanding of a 2 year old then I won't argue the point.

    Just an observation really. In my experience, most people who deny evolution have quite a limited understanding of it. There was one guy in Catholic Answers quite a few years back who was very knowledgeable. We had a lot of great discussions. And I learned a lot. But most are divided between...

    You don't know very much about evolution, do you...

    A 100% actual transitional specimen discovered!

    What..? You don't need to draw anything. Haven't you seem an actual chicken? It's covered in feathers which literally turn to scales at the bottom of the leg. The second image is a T Rex.

    Just the chicken would have done. You can literally see the transition from feathers to scales.

    Where Have All The Good Times Gone?

    Some things are so overwhelming that a part of you disassociate from the human tragedy and it becomes a spectacle in itself. It's a protective mechanism. One death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic. It's obviously horrifying to watch the planes hit. But at the same time, it's difficult not...

    Where Have All The Good Times Gone?

    It's like the old Chinese curse: May you live in interesting times. I guess it's lucky that we can turn off at times and look from the outside in like an interested observer. I was channel surfing just before going to bed on 9/11 (it happened in the late evening down here). And caught the...

    Where Have All The Good Times Gone?

    Well, I'm not being snide, but I can chew gum and pass gas at the same time. I'm sitting on my deck on a glorious afternoon. Nothing but blue sky. Might go down the beach later and watch for some whales heading south. Decide what to have for dinner with my gorgeous wife. Might open a decent...

    Where Have All The Good Times Gone?

    But (and now playing Devil's Advocate to my own argument), despite there being many things on which all reasonable people would agree, there are some aspects of life today which I think represent moral progress to which others will always disagree. Freedom from hunger v I don't want to pay for...

    Darwinian evolution - still a theory in crisis.

    But as you say... So it doesn't address the supernatural. Unless there's some evidence there to actually address. In which case it becomes something natural to explain. As you have so rightly pointed out more than once, some in this thread have started with the answer and then gone looking for...

    Darwinian evolution - still a theory in crisis.

    Now if you had said 'a secular commitment' then I would have agreed with you. The difference between an atheistic viewpoint and a secular one is that the latter can be held by Christians. A Christian scientist doesn't include God in dealing with questions of evolutionary process because it's a...
