I believe that one day evolution will come to be viewed as the
greatest hoax in all of human history. It's worse than the
emperor's
new clothes. It assumes that somehow, by random processes that no
one's yet been able to explain (much less duplicate), life sprang
from
non-living matter. It assumes that staggeringly complex
biomachines
somehow assembled themselves and somehow "just knew" how to perform
their intricate functions, never mind that natural selection would
have had no reason to "select" the components for those machines
before they were formed. And on and on one could go. It's just
plain
nonsense.

Your common sense reasoning overpowers these atheists.
"I believe" is not reasoning.
Cheers, Mark.
Lets not talk about reasoning like it's the best thing ever.
OK
But lets not call something reasoning when it is not.
You don't object to being truthful on principle do you?
Remember where reasoning got Communist Russia, or Nazi Germany.
Reasoning is the backing for eugenics, after all.
There was some reasoning involved but I think there was a great deal
of irrational emotional belief involved as well.
People can say "This is based on scientific principles" and be lying.
The nazi ideas of race for example were complete nonsense from a
scientific/biological point of view.
Let's reason - but let's remember that reason has its place.
Sure, no problem.
My Heart and my Head are often in agreement in any case.

Cheers, Mark.
Is there an echo in here?
