Well, MY response to that last question is an unqualified YES!Actually, one major difference that I see is that I'm willing to admit that my conclusions are colored by my faith, but you aren't willing to admit that what you believe to be true affects yours -- or am I misunderstanding you?
I keep hearing that evolution has been proved, but I've still seen no proof. I've just seen what some have interpreted as "proof" because they say it supports their belief, yet the same evidence can support my belief because I interpret it in the light of my belief. Again, I would ask, where are the transitional fossils? With millions of fossils found fully formed, we ought also to find millions of intermediate fossils. Not Archeopteryx, either. At the most that could be ONE of what must have been many, many intermediate steps. Actually, evidence suggests that A. was a bird like many birds today. How could we have gone from scales to feathers, two-chambered hearts to three, etc.? Where are the transitional fossils?
To quote Morris, "No matter what one may see in an experiment, or in the world at large, he can always explain it, if he wants to bacly enough, in terms of evolution. He can devise an evolutionary explanations for the long neck of the giraffe or the short neck of the hippopotamus. He can conceive how the bright colors of the butterfly or the dull coloration of the peppered moth might be explained by natural selection. If he sees no evolutionary change in an animal over many generations, he can say that evolution is normally represented by 'stasis,' being interrupted by periods of rapid change occurring at such long inervals that we can never observe them, or else that evolutionary changes occur so slowly in such minute steps that no one can ever see them. ANYTHING can be "explained by evolution!" (p 16)
And further states, "Evolutionists commonly respond to creationists who quote Popper by noting that he sill believed in evolution. That, of course, is the point. One BELIEVES in evolution, but he does not KNOW it to be true, except by faith -- exactly the same way by which creationists KNOW creation to be true." (p. 16)
