Obviously you know absolutely > nothing about origins or are incredibly biased! > > Dan But you are forgetting that he might KNOW about origins and creationism. I do not profess to know everything. But one does not need to know too much about creationism to reject it as a science. Perhaps I should repost my comment regarding God and creationism. (In short, it discusses the importance of God in creationism, and the `unscientificness` of God, thus leading to the obvious conclusion that creationism cannot be science.) The problem of God in creationism so quickly disqualifies it as science that many people do find it RIDICULOUS that anyone could seriously expect science textbooks to accept it as a science (much less an ALTERNATIVE to evolution). There are MANY OTHER REASONS for its rejection. I am NOT surprised that you find him biased or ignorant, as YOU definitely have BOTH of these qualities! ======================================================================== Keebler
