While you call yourself a scientist, I have no way of knowing what you were trained in other than the false teaching of evil-lution. When I present information from Phd biology scientists, like Dean Kenyon, who have a different view than you, it is you that seem very arrogant yourself in refusing to consider the videos of his opinions and reasons against what he calls Macroevolution. The following is a quote of one such opinion:
"Evidence often taken to support a naturalistic chemical origin of life, actually, upon close analysis, points in another direction, namely, toward the conclusion that the first life was created. The data of molecular biology, especially the details of the genetic-coding and protein-synthesizing systems, lend further powerful support to this view. Probability arguments applied to the problem of the origin of genetic information also confirm the creationist view of origins. Laboratory data and theoretic arguments concerning the origin of the first life lead one to doubt the evolution of subsequent forms of life. The fossil record and other lines of evidence confirm this suspicion. In short, when all the available evidence is carefully assessed in toto, the evolutionary story of origins appears significantly less probable than the creationist view."

I don't understand. Why would you think you need to write “the Instructor” at the end of each post in the science forum to remind yourself that you had finished your military career as an Instructor at Fort Gordon? I mean, would you somehow forget you ended that career if you stopped referring to yourself as “the instructor” at the end of each post or what?
And, if you ENDED that career as an instructor, wouldn't that mean you are no longer an instructor! If so, why would you think it appropriate to keep referring to yourself as “The Instructor” if not to imply you are 'instructing' us? (which would be an extremely BAD joke if not something much worse)

I also do not claim to have a high I.Q. because that was my youngest son who scored 186 and 188 in High School while in the gifted program. He was also the top graduate in both High School and University. I was tested in the Army at 129 which is still above average and according to you my son "evolved" from me.

What crap you vomit out. WE, including myself, have done UNIVERSITY courses on the science subjects! WE have actually bothered to spend many YEARS intensively STUDYING science properly and pass exams and get qualified to prove that we have learned it which is much more than what you are willing to do which is just watching stupid religious propaganda Youtube videos on the subject! Sorry! That just doesn't compare!

Unless you are talking here about the verbal IQ which isn't about the ability to reason, I take it he isn't a Creationist then.
I was tested in the Army at 129
Either you are lying through your teeth or you have been brain damaged since then or there is something seriously wrong with the armies IQ test or you are talking about the verbal IQ test which isn't the test of the powers of reasoning. Only the non-verbal IQ test tests for reasoning. There is no way your non-verbal IQ is that high! -Not with the illogical posts you keep creating.
I also do not claim to have a high I.Q.
-and then you just did. 129 is high.

However, my IQ score was far less than my son's scores. Of course, his score was so high they tested him again to make sure it was right and he got 2 points higher the second time.

I am not trying to interfere with your life either. I am only using my freedom of expression to put forth my worldview that is in opposition to your worldview of things, such as the interpretation of ice core data for belief in and old earth.

WOW your delusions just get ever more absurd and ever more extreme with absolutely no limits getting you ever deeper into your pure fantasy land.
Back to reality; IF he teaches evolution, he would almost certainly accept the fact of evolution -especially if his IQ is as high as you had indicated! All of the many independently conducted statistical research has confirmed this.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religiosity_and_intelligence
“...atheists scored an average of 1.95 IQ points higher than agnostics, 3.82 points higher than liberal persuasions, and 5.89 IQ points higher than dogmatic persuasions. …
…
...using data from a U.S. study of 6,825 adolescents, the authors found that atheists scored 6 IQ points higher than non atheists.
….
….
….Academics have higher IQs than the general population. Several Gallup poll studies of the general population have shown that those with higher IQs tend not to believe in God."[10] A study published in Social Psychology Quarterly in March 2010[11] also stated that "atheism ...correlate[s] with higher intelligence".
….
...other studies do nevertheless correlate IQ with being willing or able to question beliefs
….
…study found that participants who tended to think more reflectively were less likely to believe in God
….
…..”
-this is just the statistical facts found independently by every single study into the relationship between religiosity and intelligence.
