Unfortunately, his response has no focus; one can't answer any significant part of it without painfully (and unreadably) picking it to pieces. Worse yet, a large number of his responses (I didn't chase all of the preceding articles) fall into two categories: - he took the statement of the referenced article out of context, substantially distorting its content - he simply restated the earlier creationist misunderstanding--i.e., one can't tell that he read the substantive part of the evolutionist position. I'm slightly peeved at the creationists' reliance on creative arguing techniques; qubix!lab is hardly the only one. -- Dick Dunn {hao,ucbvax,allegra}!nbires!rcd (303)444-5710 x3086 ...Never offend with style when you can offend with substance.
