After watching "An Inconvenient Truth" which was full of a bunch of convenient LIES, its funny how gullible people really are on the whole global warming hoax. Despite evidence to the contrary, the "Green" (terror) movement has the majority of the populace, including businesses, buying into the hype. Now that there aren't any, or at least relatively few, sunspots going on in this current solar cycle, as evidenced by this last winter, the 0.7C the planet's temperature raised over the last century was completely obliterated. How long before the idiot alarmist says "we're wrong, it's gonna freeze again?" Of course, that's a much more likely, and worse, scenario than global warming. After all, global warming is BENEFICIAL...longer growing seasons, more CO2 in the air DOESN'T raise the temperature, it allows plants to breathe out more oxygen...argh...people are so STUPID...

You know, I have no problem with using science as a tool and still believing in God and Jesus as savior. However, I'm not here making comments to proselytize, instead, I'm here to just make some comments. Bryan, you hit the nail right on the head. Like Intelligent Design (or Creationism, or whatever a person wants to call it), The Theory of Evolution is exactly that: a theory. Blodo, there is NOTHING verifiable or falsifiable about Evolution. Look at all of the fossils, the various fossil records, and take one species out of that, like the bat for example. All the fossilized remains of bats were simply that: bats. There were no half-bat/half-lizard thing; no half-bats with stunted wings, or small ears. Any fossil of a bat, although slightly different in appearance from the "modern" day bat, is still a FULLY FORMED bat. Same goes for whales, and birds, and lizards...the list goes on and on. Another argument against Darwinism is simply how Darwin came to his conclusions: not through scientific study and analysis, not through trial and error and the elimination of impossibilities. Charles Darwin simply took the ideas his friend Adam Smith (the "founder" of modern economic theory) and applied these economic principles on biology, and a new "science" was born. There is as little evidence for Evolution as there is for Intelligent Design; both have to be taken on faith. Faith is not something that can be quantified, measured, filmed or otherwise captured in any way. I've never seen an atom, or air, or a virus, except in pictures and microscopes; these things are INVISIBLE without some type of aid, and the majority of the people in the world have to take it that these things exist on FAITH, not on empircal data. Let's take another example: DNA. Just because one type of creature shares similar DNA to another creature does not mean that they are related in any way or share any type of common ancestry. ALL DNA is similar, though it may come in larger or smaller strands: the building blocks are the same. For example, humans and chimpanzees share something like 96% similar DNA, and our "relationship" with the bonobo ape is even more significant, somewhere above 98%. This does NOT suggest common ancestry. To illustrate, I will use a non-biological equivalent. Follow me on this, because those of you with an open mind and basic understanding of materials science should be able to grasp this: A cell phone is made of plastic, silicon, copper, aluminum, iron; it has circuit boards, wiring, and a power supply. But look: a car is made of plastic, silicon, copper, aluminum, iron; it, too, has circuit boards, wiring, and a power supply. If these were examples of creatures, they would have DNA so similar as to be indistinguishable (relatively) under current testing methods. However, these items are also completely incompatible in design, and so extremely dissimilar in function that nobody would even pretend that these items are related. Same goes for biological entitites that are similar. Oh, and FatFrank, those are not transitional fossils: they are simply different species. Another look at DNA shows that the proteins are put together in a very specific order to create life. This ordering of the DNA has been likened to a programming language. Similarly, atoms are combined in very specific "structures" to produce matter as we know it. To think that this happened by accident is simply ludicrous. If you take all of the materials to build the Taj Majal and put them into a pile, and underneath that pile you place tons of explosives, no matter how many times you blow up those materials, you CANNOT build the Taj Mahal. Now, on that note, I do agree that evolution (NOT as we "know" it) is happening, but not in the way current "scientists" would have us believe. How God did it is of no consquence whatsoever; but even under "ideal" laboratory conditions to recreate the "primordial soup" and bombard it with electricity, radiation, etc., has not been able to produce even 1 living organism. So, to think that it could happen as a random event is simply stupidity. Anyway, this is my rant. Thanks for reading.
