Mr. Barrington, The premise of your question is ridiculous. Of course, I accept that the earth has a certain age, and that fossils date to this or that time....
Kalev, You admire geologists. All these geologists you admire accept evolution. Find me a prominent contemporary geologist who agrees with you that evolution...
Mr. Kennelly, Gradualism is not a very good way to adapt to anything, especially in mechanical forms. What works very mechanically in a same size will fall ...
I am second to none in my admiration of geology. If only evolution were as rigorous a science as geology is. It is not. Mr. Barrington, your notion that...
They are much more fun when they are merely headbutting people. Best, RJ ________________________________ From: leo-strauss@yahoogroups.com on behalf of Kalev...
Brian, I sympathise. Hand-ball goals are a grave injustice at a time like this. Aileen To: leo-strauss@yahoogroups.com From: brianebarrington@... Date:...
Dear Ray, There is a difference between the idea of a species and the physical existence of it members. The idea or definition of a species may be understood...
I presume you were all watching the massive injustice that was perpetrated against my country last night? Who can think of evolution at a time like this? This...
The earth is 4.5 billion years old. Presumably humans did not exist on earth the moment it was formed 4.5 billion years ago? I mean, the fossil record shows...
Your analogy of the coelacanth to DNA is just plainly false and illogical. The lovely fish never died out and was not extinct as believed. That they have no...
Mr. Kennelly, My point, again, Mr. Kennelly, is that there is no observation whatsoever of a species change. It is fine to infer such a thing, if there is...
Mr. Pehme, I am almost at a loss to respond. Evolution is an inferential construct, it is a scientific theory which explains many phenomena and is always bound...
Yes, it doesn't matter what we call evolution, it will still be the case. Common descent is entirely consistent with every fact ever observed by any human...
I would like to point out a problem with the notion of a common descent. This notion was put forth before there was practically any fossil record of any kind...
Mr. Barrington, Your solution is one that has been attempted before, and it doesn't work, needless to say, because your premises are untenable as they are a...
I think I've found a way to overcome the disagreements people are having about this – we should stop calling evolution "evolution" and start calling it...
Hello, Has anyone on the list read or would otherwise like to comment on Emmanuel Faye, "Heidegger, The Introduction of Nazism into Philosophy", translated...
Mr. Kennelly, That there are common features to animals, there is no doubt. However, the classification of these species is, more often than not, arbitrary....
Mr. Kennelly, I appreciate your forthrightness. But if evolution cannot know with certainty about the first spider (I would contend that it need explain the...
Mr. Pehme, I freely admit that the species is not identical to the individual, but I do not regard this as especially strong evidence against evolutionary...
Mr. Van Dyke, Clearly, you don't know the difference between species and individual, as badly as the evolutionists don't. The individual homo sapiens who...
... Oh, Mr. Pehme, species definition is quite banal---that as generations go on, cousins get so genetically differentiated that they can no longer breed with...
That the past and the present are different does not give evolution an exclusive claim to the truth of itself. The point that I keep making is that evolution...
I will offer here a quick analogy with an explanation which might be helpful. Scientist and investigators are yet interested in the causes and processes...
I do not know if anyone has pointed to Plato in the effort to defend Marxism, or Fascism, or other similar evils, but in such an environment Popper deserves...
