Hey, Gideon,I'd like your reaction to these statements.
"The fact of evolution is the backbone of biology,
and biology is thus in the peculiar position of being a
science founded on an unproved theory--is it then a
science of a faith? Belief in the theory of evolution is
thus exactly parallel to belief in special creation --
both are concepts which believers know to be true but
neither, up to the present, has been capable of
proof."
"The Theory of Evolution is no longer with us,
because neo-Darwinism is not acknowledged as being unable
to explain anything more than trivial change, and in
defaulr of some other theory we have none.. despite the
hostility of witness provided by the fossil record,
despite the innumerable difficulties, and despite the
lack of even a credible theory, evolution survives. Can
there be any other area of science, for instance, in
which a concept as intellectually barren as embryonic
recapitulation could be used as evidence for a
theory?"
Any belief in evolution is as much faith as my belief in special creation.
And no, I'm working on the answers to your supposed "contradictions," I haven't conceded them. I'll also be out for the Thanksgiving holidays, so who knows when I'll return. (Is that rejoicing I'm hearing from someone:)?)
Thanks,
Gotch
