[I] EVOLUTION Up a Creek Without a Paddle...
(I had to cut sci.bio from the crosspost because my newserver
didn't recognise it. I hope Jason is reading in another group) Jason wrote: snip bel, If you just wanted to make a point--you succeeded.

The fossils don't provide the evidence needed to prove that macro-evolution is true. If you don't believe me, read the book. Jason, Have you considered reading more than one book on this subject before making up your mind? I'd suggest one on evolutionary theory written by someone who has actually studied the subject, then maybe something about genetics, paleontology, geology and phylogeny, the evidence from all of which supports the theory of evolution.

I took a course related to evolution while in college and I have not seen any new information about evolution in any of the recent posts that provided new data that I have not seen before. I asked several people to let me know about any newer experiments that prove life can evolve from non-life. As of yet, none of the posters have told be about an experiment. When I was in college, the professor was fairly certain that eventually a scientist would be able to prove that life could evolve from non-life. When it happens, I will turn my back on the ID movement and become an evolutionist. I noticed from your post that you were very professional. I was beginning to think that all evolutionists were unprofessional. Jason -- NEWSGROUP SUBSCRIBERS MOTTO We respect those subscribers that ask for advice or provide advice.

On 10/23/2005 1:55 PM Jason mumbled something about the following:

Besides, I don't have a profession in palaeontology, I'm just a computer nerd who likes to point out your fallacies by using your own arguments against you. It's people like you who make IDers such an easy target. Keep it up, it's way too entertaining. -- Odinn RCOS #7 SENS ??? BS ???

[snip] I don't know what pratchett is but what would you expect to learn about what is new or old or anything else about evolution in woodworking, medical pathology, or celebrity gossip? Talk Origins is the place to discuss evolution and ID and Creationism - try there. Back yourself out of these other newsgroups, it is just plain rude to push your religious beliefs in these other groups. Josie |

Pratchett is a British fantasy author whose works include a novel featuring a God of Evolution and who has co-authored 3 books about science, the 3rd of which is subtitled /Darwin's Watch/. Given that, and the fact that anything Pratchett fans are interested in is on-topic for afp, there's no real problem with the thread being posted here. If I knew in which group Jason is (or indeed you are) reading I'd cut the crosspost down to just that group and afp. Diane L. |

Diane, sci.med.pathology I tried posting a message at talk.origins but it did not appear. I have had that same problem with another newsgroup so it's possible that it's a problem related to my internet service provider. It appears to be the best newsgroup related to the evolution vs. ID debate. Jason -- NEWSGROUP SUBSCRIBERS MOTTO We respect those subscribers that ask for advice or provide advice.

The problem being that ID is indistinguishable from evolution outside of the low and whispering "as though there were an intelligent designer lurking behind it all!" and begging for you to agree without offering up an way of demonstrating that designers existence: his/her reality lies in the conclusion being begged. ID is obscenely dishonest, pretending to forswear God while deviously circumventing technical weaknesses in the law design to prevent the government meddling in religious hoohaw. It's devilishly clever. Sheesh, why is this being posted to *these* groups??? And how do I set... nevermind. er -- |
