@Hockeycowboy: my optimism doesn't stretch so far as to believe you would recognize evidence. But it might help others.

Why do you want to belittle me?@Hockeycowboy: my optimism doesn't stretch so far as to believe you would recognize evidence. But it might help others.
Because I have given up on educating you.Why do you want to belittle me?
It is difficult to debate willful ignorance.Because I have given up on educating you.
No. Seriously, it's not with bad intention. I accept that you have a fixed world view and that your well being depends on defending creationism. See it as friendly banter. I think we can agree that we have no debate going on between us any more. It is all for the audience. You brushing off my presentation of evidence with an "Optimistic" frubal and my snide remark are of the same class.
“May have”, “could have been”, etc., is not solid science. It’s guesswork.
What’s the difference - in your estimation - of science and “solid” science?
You always decry IC as evidence for design by intelligence......but please, how *could* the bacterial flagellum evolve? What pathways *could have been* taken to gradually build this nano machine? Or *could* it emerge suddenly?
But I’m interested to understand why you’ve called it “sold evidence”.
I don’t dispute evolution, within family taxa.
What I take issue with, and so do many others, is this adamant conferring of limitless ability to create not just all life, but living systems including symbiosis and other facets.
It goes beyond the tangible. Like the numerous relationships between unrelated organisms.
IMO, it will be a great day indeed, when science divorces itself from materialism.
Take care, cousin.
contradicted by none,
It should, because it’s another gap, they keep adding up.Arguments from incredulity, don't make a dent in scientific theories.
“Defending creationism”? Who?Because I have given up on educating you.

How so? Can you elaborate on this.Oh, please! What is found in the Cambrian Explosion refutes it!
The Cambrian fauna “appear suddenly” in fossil record, many with very well preserved remains...even the soft-bodied parts.How so? Can you elaborate on this.

Evolution predicts there are always obvious ancestral precursors to every species, but they are not found in the substrata, the Ediacaran! They haven’t discovered them...and usually the explanation is, ‘the fossil record isn’t complete, due to unfavorable conditions many animals just aren’t preserved.” That’s right, most times they aren’t.
But in the Cambrian record in both the Burgess Shale and the Chengjiang Lägerstaten, there is no such problem. The record is replete with even soft bodied organisms! And the obvious precursors are missing.
There’s earlier life, but nothing that looks like the trilobites, or anomylocaris, or any of the other species representing the body plans of the Cambrian.
Already read them . They present straw man arguments. Obvious precursors for the Cambrian-appearing life forms don’t existThat's an incorrect understanding of the Cambrian explosion. Please see these two links for further information.

Ok then from your Christian prospective what was going on in the Cambrian?Already read them . They present straw man arguments. Obvious precursors don’t exist
A creative event obviously. At all the radiation occurrences.Ok then from your Christian prospective what was going on in the Cambrian?
And is that speculation or is there something in the bible that backs this up?A creative event obviously. At all the radiation occurrences.
Two human adults bodies living have sex owning eventual death.A creative event obviously. At all the radiation occurrences.
It should, because it’s another gap, they keep adding up.
Just saying “evolution did it,” without describing how, is a weak argument...no substance.
Oh, please! What is found in the Cambrian Explosion refutes it!
