Ok, Ok, my conclusion was bogus (in the most liberal sense). However, macroevolution does not need to be observed it can be inferred. From the available evidence (i.e. fossils) we can make [flimsy-semi-plausible] inferences about a species development. There is however, no biological reaon why macro-evolution is impossible. This is what I meant by "evolution is true".

Please enjoy your religion but don't confuse your religion's foundation myths with reality
The fossil record is interpreted from the premise that macro-evolution did take place. Circular reasoning at best.

Anyone who can't accept the overwhelming evidence for evolution and prefers to interpret literally what is obviously a mythical Genesis story (however spiritually relevant it might be) is not likely to listen to reason anyway. Notice how easily you use the word theist when I guess you really mean creationist. There are plenty of theists out there who don't have a problem with evolution and don't have to bamboozle their way out of anything.

I think it might take a while for the theists to bamboozle their way out of this one.

It is simply a preferd belief, disguised as Science, which cannot be demonstrated in the lab or reproduced as anything 'Scientific' should be.

I would totally agree with you if you would put an 'un' before the 'informed' and a 'macro' before 'evolution'. 😉
On matters of religion and science, if you've typed a single informed post, I missed it.
BTW, literalists and fundamentalists, as well as members of your cult, are not among those generally recognized by the term "informed."

Just a pity that you never seem to show the 'uninformed' the right way.
Btw: Were you referring to the Bible cult?
