This is not the best possible presentation of either perspective.
Ploughboy, I have found that you are such an unreliable witness to anything at all that even your Christian witness is dubious. Your rejection of obviously true science violates scripture as well as rational thought.

Ploughboy, I have stood on the banks of channels at full flood. I have excavated through meters of sediments deposited by recent floods. I, like Michael, have seen first hand the types of deposits left by glaciers. I have been in sand storms that le…

I have been at the mouth of several glaciers where there has been depostion of till (stony rubbish from the glacier) If that is not moved by an advancing glacier it will stay there.

- Are you on LinkedIn and Facebook?
I would like to connect with you there also. I am trying to make more connections and fans so that I can spread awareness for breast cancer during pregnancy. I was diagnosed Stage 3 in the 5th month of my pregnancy in May. My status updates on LinkedIn and Facebook are usually about my fight or social networking tips.

ALLAN PORCHETTA said… - Just one more - for peter and the evolvers - how well qualified was darwin to propose a theory - hundreds of years ago-
that is still believed but not proven - he was a theologian - but was he a scientist or an amatuer taxonomist ?
The average biology student knows more than Darwin who thought a cell was a blob. How come darwin did not need
qualifications ?

Like to stick to bare facts rather than emotion - peter says "we fit things around the bible" do evolutionists not try to fit everything around darwins old book even
though its main thrust is that mere adaptation of species will turn into evolution.
Darwin said there would be thousands of transitionals - where are they ?
How exactly can an animal design complex new systems - can you explain how
the whale can design and develop a method of feeding its offspring underwater with
the offspring designing and developing a mechanisms to accept the feed - with these evolutionary demands being met at the same time ??????
Please dont just say it took a long long time - please explain the mechanisms and stages - you will know about probabilities with your maths . How does an animal
know what it needs to evolve - and to think that these pig like animals that changed
into whales had already come out of the sea - my baloney detector is switched on.
Plus if the transitionals were succesful enough in their own right to last long enough
to evolve surely some of these must have survived eg the whale pig with sonar
under design and construction.
The national geographic's digital evolution of the whale was laughable - based
on the earbone of some seal or other.
The bombardier beetle is another . I would like you to explain the stages of its
design . I saw Dawkins mixing two chemicals to disprove it - it was a meaningless
experiment - he fortunately forgot the catalyst .
If you saw a gun on Mars no one would convince you that it had not been made.
Why do you think the beetle made its own gun. Where is the feedback mechanism ?
Selection is not feedback - it only weeds out unfitness after the design.
However there are billions of examples on the complexity of living things but these
two have mechanical aspects which are problems for you evolutionists.
Anyway won't overload you just now .
Nice fish - in which evolutionary direction is it headed ?

- Well, the fishing was as slow as I expected. I caught one of the only three legal fish on the entire boat boat.
But it was a beautiful day on the ocean, moderate winds, calm seas and sunny.

- I appreciate that the management of Premier Radio's web site have been so even handed. Many of the self declared "Christian" sites (RaptureReady, and CARM come immediately to mind), or creationist sites like Uncommon Decent delete comments and users who move the slightest bit out of the creationist track.
