And what you want to discuss.

And preferably where you stand in the discussion.

And what your girlfriend's bra...uh...never mind.

I was just googling around. I think we're just going around and around in this forum over what man has been debating about for ever.

There's got to be a better way.

You could just give up and accept the overwhelming evidence in favor of evolution. You can even still believe in god if you want.

And throw out the first eleven chapters of Genesis?

Aren't you a lawyer?

You can even keep Genesis. You just couldn't interpret it literally.

You're beginning to sound like God. Thou shall and thou shall not. 😉

Someone's being a bit greedy here.

Either accept a literal interpretation of genesis, or accept the mountains of natural evidence.

You can't have both, it just doesn't work that way.

There even seems to be a tone of an evolutionary progression in Genesis. Imagine that.

Let me quote:
"In fact, based on standard mathematical models, we would see far more transitional forms in the fossil record than complete specimens. However, we see none -- not one true transitional specimen has ever been found."

Clearly, the writer is talking nonsense. Also it is clear that the writer has done a bit of research. Conclusion: He is lying intentionally and trying to confuse gullible people.

So, josephw, do you agree with what is on that website? Are you that gullible and ignorant? Or did you simply not read it? Are you attempting to create a debate by posting what you know to be false information? Be honest now, does the above quote make sense to you?
