What I find so interesting about the current gaggle of scientists who espouse Evolution as a fact (instead if what it really is: a theory long since discredited by serious scientists) is how SURE they are until another discovery changes their entire dynamic.

God can not be "proven" by science, but He will never be disproved either.

Science states something dogmatically-- until the dogma changes.

Which do you really want to put your faith in?

As I show on my own Doubt Free Living site, God uses the foolish things of this word to confound the wise. Still holds true today!

Thanks Nectocaris (?)

I appreciate your perusal of Tiktaalik rosea. Sorry that my calling archaeopteryx a famous fraud flummoxed you. At least you read the article up to that point.

Actually, you have corrected something I forgot to correct shortly after this post was published. I had been reading about archaeoraptor and unwisely mixed up the two names. I meant to identify archaeoraptor as the fraud it is.

But it seems not everyone is convinced that archaeopteryx passes the sniff test either. It has the avian lungs, hollow bones etc. of a bird (I am told)--only a bird and nothing more. If this is true, then might I not also call the archaeopteryx a famous fraud?

Sorry to say, evolution is not necessarily a religion based upon pure values. Chicanery pays big, especially in the arena of supposed "missing links/transitional forms. Much money changed hands between the discoverers of ---ryx and museums. We know science should be pure, something totally based upon carefully monitored scientific methods. Not so. Scientists are at least as culpable of errors and dissimulation as clergymen. That is why science makes an even poorer religion. Many scientists rule out God a priori; that leaves us with directionless man prone to fulfilling his own ego.

Nectocaris, I assume from your comment that you make your living as a scientist. Congratulations. Your testimony about pursuing truth with integrity appeals to me. I would be happy to hear further from you about why you feel archaeopteryx is a transitional form. We should be able to clear this up based upon real data. (I admit that the Internet can give a person a jaundiced view of most anything.)

My apologies for confusing archaeoraptor and archaeopteryx.

No paranoia here. I have received the promise of eternal life from the One Who has always existed.

Not one other world religion, including evolution/humanism, includes fulfilled prophecy about its master, not Buddhism, Islam, Darwinism, or any of them. But the birth, life, death and resurrection of Christ was foretold with hundreds of prophecies about where he would be born, where he came from, the nature of the virgin birth, how much would be offered for his betrayal, and on and on (over 300 details hundreds of years before He came to us). People have set out to disprove his life and ministry and have become Christians instead. Thousands of scientists doing work similar to yours actually believe in a literal six days of creation by an intelligent designer and personal God. You may find several of their professional credentials are at least the equal of your own. Why are they denied a voice in leading scientific publications? Because evolution is the ruling paradigm. That has nothing to do with truth; only with power.

Thanks for your comments. Please write me again.

I got as far as "Archaeopteryx is a famous fraud" before collapsing. Somehow that fact has bypassed two generations of palaeontologists (most of which have better things to do than play any part in the paranoid pageant you seem to experience).

Ah, it must be nice to have so much privy knowledge! Where we lesser mortals toil for many years, test hypotheses, make and discard theories, you just get spoonfed by a deity. Quite enviable. But I think I 'd rather keep both my integrity and self-respect by doing my fact-finding myself. Good luck with the poems, they are doubtlessly good stress-relievers.

Dear Don,

I took the link for your important observations on that fossil (T.r.) to my own blog, in my response to an evolution student. I entitled my response as:

Macroevolution, The Overselling of a Speculation.

Dear Don,

Congratulations for your commitment and for your wise comments!

Here in your blog, as in mine, it is evident that through anonymous and multiple pseudos, the desperate evolutionists are trying to darken the light. However, while we are still here, we won't let that to happen!

Continue your encouraging work and God bless you!

Thanks for the input, Anonymous. As for "Viva Evolution," I think it has lived long enough to destroy millions of lives. It should definitely die. What is Spanish for Die Evolution? Isn't it "muerto" or something like that?

Please write back and let me know what you think of the poem.
