If you say so.
No 50 year old plagiarized quotes this time? I am stunned...
Cool - a quote from a book published in 1965. With 2 instances of ellipses. Did you read the book? If so, can you tell me what you ellipsed out? It costs $165 on Amazon - wow, you must really be into decades-old geology books to shell out that much cash.
And the weirdest thing of all?
When I googled that quote, a SINGLE return showed up -
Haryn Yoyo, the wacky dishonest creationist's website.
Imagine that? A SINGLE return, and I'll be darned if that quote did not match yours ENTIRELY - ellipses and all! What a coincidence.
But then, I truncated the quote, and just googled the up to 'surprising'... and wow - 90 returns. EVERY SINGLE ONE to a creationist website, creationist comment on a forum or website,. etc.
What an amazing coincidence!
So, yeah, cool that you can copy-paste creationist quotes, but I guess you cannot actually address my simple request.
YOU WROTE:
Too much diversity exists, for evolution to reasonably explain and account for. No undirected, mindless force could greatly mutate these organisms, and still maintain the balance in nature that exists.
I asked you to imagine that I understand biology but know nothing of evolution and to EXPLAIN what you wrote to me.
You reply with some plagiarized quote from 50 years ago that does not - at all - address anything you had written.
A. Are you just one of those creationists that copy-pastes all of your arguments from creationist websites?
B. Or are you the rare exception that actually has a relevant background and can deal with the evidence?
I'm thinking A at this point.
Also funny how you later, in a reply to Jose, demanded that he prove one of your quotes wrong.
I guess that means that you could not very its relevance? Can you even understand this stuff?
Given that you are STILL prattling on about "sudden" appearance of taxa in the Cambrian, I suspect that you bought into the creationist brainwashing and quote bombing and just don;t know any better. Or care...
You people are so mundane and predictable.
