You must be joking. Western civilization, for starters, is dominated by cultural Marxism - the secular religion of Equality.

Feminism (including the vote for women),

gay rights and same-sex "marriage",

the Civil Rights movement (in America),

the virtual worship of negroid race, (rampant in the English-speaking world, including Australia),

politically-correct laguage,

affirmative action,

the obsession with "diversity"

... these are all manifestations of Marxism.
This is quite unlike the Marxism I learned. Are you sure you mean Marxism?

Again, THAT'S NOT WHAT I ASKED.

I was asking about his SCIENTIFIC publications. Not what he writes on a creationist site.
I've not read any of his scientific publications, but I very much doubt if he'd include

I've never read any of his scientific publications, but if he never uses creationist terminology on a creationist site, then he certainly wouldn't in his scientific publications.

You certainly can't expect that finding a rabbit in the precambrian would cause people to become biblical creationists. That ship has already sailed.
No argument there.

It takes a miracle to become a true Bible literalist.

A person can accept evolution as fact and still believe that abortion is wrong. They aren't mutually inclusive.
I agree, but who came first? pro-lifers or evolutionists?

What amazes me is how often cultural Marxists are oblivious to the fact that they're cultural Marxists, and how ignorant they are of where their sacred cows come from.
I've also noticed that cultural Marxism is the official religion of Western atheists. They worship the Great False God of Equality, just as Communists do.

Considering that the act of abortion has been known about since ancient times (the earliest law about abortion on record was in the code of Assura from Assyria in roughly 11th century BC), and the earliest... I guess the earliest anti-abortion law (if you want to call it that) is from Britain in 1803 which makes abortion after 'quickening' (when the baby begins to move enough for the mother to feel it) a capital crime, and that evolution wasn't accept as science until the end of the 1800s, then I will say the pro-lifers. Being technical about it.

You're just flinging muck at the wall and hoping it will stick, aren't you?

:sigh:

Let's try this again, from a different angle.

Who came first in history, Adam or Norma McCorvey?

If you say "Adam," then I rest my case.

If you say, "I don't believe in Adam," then I'll take evolution with a grain of salt.

I'm not answering that question because it's a loaded question on your part. You're question is dishonest.

So if you're not a biblical creationist, what's your beef with the theory of evolution?
It can't explain how novel body plans and novel organs can arise. It is contradicted by the Cambrian explosion.

Except that the Cambrian explosion over a period of 9 MILLION YEARS. And it does explain how novel body plans and organs arise. You just choose to ignore the explanation.

Is an eye advantageous for survival and procreation?
Yes, of course it is, but that doesn't answer my question.

Observation: A chimp uses a rock to crack open a nut, which is survival advantage.
Prediction: A chimp will one day build a Large Hadron Collider.
Conclusion: The prediction is unreasonable and almost certainly a fantasy.

I understand.

Matthew 21:23 And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
24 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?
26 But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.
27 And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
