And Terry, it's the reason I won't argue evolution with you. You don't know, or understand enough about the subject to argue against. If you REALLY want to be able to refute evolution (or anything) you MUST first study the subject thoroughly. Only then can you engage in an intelligent argument, and maybe, change someone's mind. And before you decide that I won't change my mind no matter what, remember I am a scientist, and it is in my nature, and in all of my training to change my mine whenever the evidence for the new position is greater than the evidence for the position I hold. This is the ONLY golden rule of science, and it is why science ALWAYS has the most correct answer on EVERYTHING!! April
