Oh, I see. We have different ideas about what constitutes substantive interlocution.
Yes, I most definitely DO expect others to show me "their homework." I don't give a rat's butt about their present seeming opinions or present understanding on some topic. I want to see how they've sourced and constructed their views. You guys on the other hand seem to instead want a song-and-dance demonstration as a test to see if we (Christians typically) can measure up to your acumen before you decide to engage anything we might have to either say, or, on a more minute level, bring to the table of discussion.
The fact is, you and I didn't even engage as yet. You tossed a Wikipedia article(s) at me, and I tossed something back. In my estimation, this kind of thing is but the beginning of birth-pangs in research and analysis; it's hardly the stuff of an intention to express some definitive endpoint.
So, since we didn't even get to discuss any aspects of anything related to what we thought we were focusing on, I think it's safe to say that neither of us can cite the other as being "in error." If anything, we're just talking past each other and it probably comes from us having a different idea about what constitutes substantive constructs of thought.
I will admit, though, that I intentionally meant to briefly detour this thread ... mainly because I don't see the whole panoply of evolutionary concepts (whether theoretical or applied) as anything other than a rabbit's hole. You guys, on the other hand, seem to see it as a 'done deal' with nothing really to question.
Am I wrong to think this?
