Excuse me,but you realy need to get some good books based on reality
instead of the fiction you are into. Yes,reality books cost more,but they
are worth every dollar.

They do indeed. A good evolution text book costs tens of pounds; Henry Morris' long discredited nonsense is cheap.

Henry Morris is a great author who is more than
willing to help you out.
Nearly every argument he used in "The Genesis Flood" is now on AiG's "Do not use" list of arguments - in other words, his arguments there are long debunked and the more informed and canny creationists have given up using such flimsy evidence.

But the biggest religious group of evolution accepters in the West are Christians. That's what your position can't deal with.
That is all wrong. We know that evolution came from ancient pagan
religions. We believe it's going to be part of the global religion called
inter-faithism. I didn't mean to ruffle your feathers,but look at what
some of you post on your messages. Has anyone reported it yet?

No, you don't 'know' any such thing. Can you find any reference to common descent through natural selection as framed by Darwin prior to the nineteenth century?

inter-faithism.
Who's this "we"? And what has a biological theory to do with global religion?

They're at liberty to do so if they think I break the rules. I call a spade a spade and sometimes people object to that. The difference is that I can call on evidence to demonstrate that a spade is, indeed, a spade.

Thats false again. Henry Morris is very well respected and he is
one of the best researchers around. He's on icr.org and there is a
whole list of scientists with their pictures and information about them
listed also. He also shows great references and material that can be
researched by anyone who wants to learn.
Dave Hunt is another good one. Josh McDowell,an ex atheist is excellent also. Stay away from the fiction section if you can.

Only by creationists - i.e. a very tiny group within science.

and he is
one of the best researchers around.


And how many research papers has he published in the last ten years?

He's on icr.org and there is a
whole list of scientists with their pictures and information about them listed also.

All of whom have signed ICRs basis of faith, thereby promising to always come up with a creationist interpretation no matter what the evidence is. To the extent they do that, they are not scientists. But moreover, do you know how many scientists there are in the world. Do you know what proportion buy into young earth creationism to any degree?

He also shows great references and material that can be
researched by anyone who wants to learn.

I do. But what you mean is "stay away from mainstream science". Because you know full well that anyone who really understands the evidence is compelled to accept evolution, and that can't be allowed at any cost.

By everyone who has ever read his material and looked
into the subject,amen.

Except for the "unbelievers and scoffers" that have read his "material" and found it utter nonsense, of course...

[source: a rescension of his book "The long war against God" on Amazon]

But those opinions don´t count, as we all know, because they are just evil unbelievers.


Gee, these are the times I wish to be a Creationist. What bliss it must be to know that all who disagree with me are by definition wrong!
