There is only one theory of evolution. It takes different forms as
it relates to widely disparate areas of science, but it is all part
of a seamlessly functioning whole. Can I give you a single book on
the subject? I doubt it, simply because of the above. Besides, I
doubt you'd want to read a 35-volume set of books. ;)

Well, I know exactly what Glenn Morton wrote since I'm one of the
people who reviewed his book. I asked Walter to send me information,
but to date, he has not seen fit to respond. Glenn's method, in case
you haven't read his book, is to reconcile the Bible to evolution,
hence he doesn't have a theory of creationism. In fact, he is very
much anti-YEC. You can ask him yourself.

I think the point that needs to be made is that there is a single
theory of evolution and no *SCIENTIFIC* hypothesis of creationism.
