  Looter, still no empirical evidence? I thought in the OP you claimed to have answers to all objections?

  ok. i know this has been brought up in the past, but i have often wondered who in our halls are awake (for those of us who attend).

  there are some i would consider a 'maybe', but no way of ever really knowing.. so here is my idea.

  i hope it doesn't sound too masonic,.

  Caedes, I actually went to the trouble of checking your last few contributions towards the thread in case I missed something.

  Good grief, that kind of in depth research must have taken you hours. You still haven't answered any of the perfectly reasonable questions I have asked about your claims. You do understand this is a discussion board not a pulpit?

  Has anyone heard of the phrase 'when you are in a hole it's best to stop digging'? It seems relevant somehow.

  As mere mortals mankind knows nothing.

  Does that mean you have evidence for the existence of immortals?

  Answering any of my questions would be a start because you didn't answer really answer my last question either did you?

  I rather suspect that you know you didn't answer it and are hoping that using a very specific example will deflect away from that.

  I will ask another question, why should anyone believe what you have to say about micro-biology?

  Your answer is a great example of someone who has only a superficial knowledge of evolution, your own quote highlights what you are missing!

  Change in the gene pool of a population from generation to generation by such processes as mutation, natural selection, and genetic drift. (my emphasis)

  It is precisely the sort of generational changes (or adaptation) that you are talking about that eventually lead to new species, evolution does not state that one such change makes a new species.

  If you were a scientist you would be wondering what happens to those changes over time and the effect they have on the classification of those species.

  With all your expertise how would you suggest we positively identify antibiotic resistant bacteria?

  You still haven't answered either of my previous questions.
