	Just because you find something "difficult" is *not* a valid
reason to reject it.  I have difficulty understanding quantum physics,
should I therefor reject it it?  If creationists ever did *real*
origunal research there might not be any problem with it, but as
has been pointed out all they do is rehash old argument *against*
evolution.  This leads to stagnation and cessation of progress.
THIS is where the danger to science, and perhaps Israeli defense
comes in, the habit of *not* thinking, just accepting old answers.
