GOOD GOLLY MISS MOLLY! DNAunion has sent more than 18 posts on this
subject! I know because I counted them as I deleted them (I scanned the
first couple). Posting a note to the list is enough. You don't have to send
duplicate posts to individuals.
I asked Huxter for his evidence and he provided it. It *is* very
compelling. So bluster all you want. What I said (in jest, actually)
stands.

The Discovery Institute and all of the major ID proponents disagree with
you--as do I.

You might find this site very entertaining--I certainly did.

it is a list of fallacious arguments. I liked this one a lot:
Straw Man (Fallacy Of Extension):
attacking an exaggerated or caricatured version of your
opponent's position.
For example, the claim that "evolution means a dog giving birth
to a cat."
Another example: "Senator Jones says that we should not fund
the attack submarine program. I disagree entirely. I can't
understand why he wants to leave us defenseless like that."
On the Internet, it is common to exaggerate the opponent's
position so that a comparison can be made between the
opponent and Hitler.

I am aware that the conclusions arrived at in this work will be denounced
by some as highly irreligious; but he who denounces them is bound to shew
why it is more irreligious to explain the origin of man as a distinct
species by descent from some lower form, through the laws of variation and
natural selection, than to explain the birth of the individual through the
laws of ordinary reproduction.
