yeah.. its a sucky situation to be in, but, there is simply no reaching some people.

Even if Jesus himself descended from da heavens and told them "hey.. you know, guys, there is PLENTY of proof for evolution... you should really look into it", they'd ignore it.

Hmmm....

As it turns out you can't put up a comment that is more than 1300 words long and also you can't post twice in a row. I wasn't able to touch upon the missing links yet. He'll probably come out shouting and call me names for that.

Oh well, good really.

That is definitely not a place to conduct a proper debate though.

Still at it I'm afraid. He had the gaul to critisize me for equivocating transitional sequences with common descent (did no such thing by the way) while he seems to think it's perfectly allright to equivocate gaps in the fossil record with "evolution is false".

Gerard, I would just give up. Talking to Creationists is like talking to a wall.

Mr_C · Posted: Wed May 16, 2007 11:30 pm Post subject:

I don't think Gerard, like myself, enjoys giving up. There are so many misconceptions out there that wouldn't be there if it weren't for:
(a) Our education system not doing their job and teaching SCIENCE
and
(b) Fundies who are so deluded by their belief systems that facts hitting them square in the face do not seem to have any effect.

My hope is that someone will come along and read Gerard's and my comments on This Fundy Board and start to think about their beliefs for the first time.

*sighs*
But I'm an optimist...
