Well, as I have never posted to this group before, and the protocol did
say to tell about myself, I will. I subscribed to this mailing list
because I have always had an interest in evolution and the theories that
are incorporated in this subject. While I do not have a broad range of
experience or knowledge on this subject, I do find myself to be interested
in the discussions.

In response to Arthur V. Chadwick, who wrote:
. . . . Rather than questioning their assumptions, evolutionists have
begun to ". . .think twice about the mtDNA clock they depend on."
Why, when "evidence" is presented either in favor of evolutionist
theory or against it, the side that takes the blow just concedes that
point and finds a way around it? What is science for if not to help to
support or weaken claims?
