All this proves is that inbreeding amongst isolated island posulations
leads to decreased levels of intelligence.

I see that you are fluent in Gibbering Moron speak. Unfortunately, I'm not.
You generate more ***** than the ***** making machine in an evolution
class. In future, kindly proofread your posts before assaulting unsuspecting
readers of this message board with a litany of misspellings, egregious
grammatical errors, and other verbal atrocities.

Participants over
55 were less likely to choose evolution over other groups.

Uh huh.

And what naturally happens over time to the over 55 group?

We get some senior citizens discounts?
Oh, you had something else in mind?
From what I've been hearing a lot of
people come out as atheists at this
age or later. The reason - so many of
them no longer have to worry about
their family, friends and spouses'
reactions or losing their jobs. And,
they don't give a damn about what
other people think about it.

Physical ailments are one thing.
Mental ailments can strike you
at any age.

Britons unconvinced on evolution


Just under half of Britons accept the theory of evolution as the best
description for the development of life, according to an opinion poll.

Furthermore, more than 40% of those questioned believe that creationism
or intelligent design (ID) should be taught in school science lessons.

The survey was conducted by Ipsos MORI for the BBC's Horizon series.

Its latest programme, A War on Science, looks into the attempt to
introduce ID into science classes in the US.

Over 2,000 participants took part in the survey, and were asked what
best described their view of the origin and development of life:

22% chose creationism
17% opted for intelligent design
48% selected evolution theory
and the rest did not know.

This does not surprise me. The theory of evolution - like many
scientific theories - is a vastly complicated topic, with huge gaping
yet to be unexplained holes. It requires thinking in timescales humans
have difficulty comprehending, and right down to the cellular level
beyond which humans can see with their own eyes. It's just too much for
most people to fully digest and understand.

They could spend years having it explained to them in detail, in the
simplest terms possible, and they'd still find it all rather daunting,
or even fantastically far fetched. Many will accept it, but only
because others perceived to be much more intelligent them themselves
tell them that's the way it is.

Given how many people of this world - many of whom cannot be described
as simple or uneducated - still holds some level of belief in some sort
of god, you can only conclude that the human animal is inherently
gullible; either by ignorance or choice, consciously or subconsciously.
As such, is it any surprise that when presented even the slightest
possibility of a much simpler supernatural 'explanation', that is
somehow going to be much easier for many everyday folk to get their
heads around? The simplest explanation is usually the most probable,
and what could be simpler that, "God did it!"

What a huge boatload of bullcrap.
Just when you thought that you've heard everything this moron comes along
with a theory that humans cannot understand evolution down to the molecular
level.
You've been watching too much sci-fi junior.
Here is the way that atheists explain the world. Get ready for a good
laugh.

1. First, there was only random atomic motion of dead atoms. This
continued for billions of years until....

2. Somehow, in the pre-biotic soup of earth, some of these dead atoms
magically sprang to life. The dead chemicals of the pre-biotic soup
somehow sloshed around, and magically constructed the 3.5 billion
base-pairs of the first DNA strand.

3. But simply constructing the first DNA strand was not enough. Because
at precisely the same time, the necessary enzymes for DNA replication
also magically appeared.

4. Not only that. For some unknown magical reason, the first DNA strand
suddenly decided to replicate it's own complicated double helix
structure. Even though the Hydrogen, Carbon, Oxygen, and Nitrogen atoms
that DNA is composed of is PRECISELY THE SAME as any other dead
atoms..... nevertheless, for some magical reason, the first DNA strand
decided to replicate it's own structure.

5. This first DNA replication, conducted by recently dead atoms,
involved all the inherent morphological difficulties that would be
expected when you have to spin and unzip 3.5 billion base pairs. But
somehow, it all happened, as if by magic.

6. After the first DNA strand magically felt the need to replicate
itself, this replication continued for billions of years. It is
important to realize that the whole show is being conducted by the VERY
SAME ATOMS that were originally dead and non-living. So these dead
atoms were magically replicating DNA structure for no good reason.

7. But it gets better. After magically replicating DNA for awhile,
these very same dead atoms magically became aware of their own
existence. (the appearance of the first human brain.)

8. After magically becoming aware of their own existence, these dead
atoms went on to invent all kinds of technology, including the internet
and the newsgroup "talk.origins."

9. These very same dead atoms are, at this very moment, causing me to
type this posting. And they are causing you to read it. Because
according to atheists, the human mind, and in point of fact the ENTIRE
HUMAN RACE, is nothing but a complicated arrangement of dead atoms.
