Right away we run into a problem.

From your link:

The link wasn't for serious debate or evidence.

Gotts seems to have a severe problem reading about evolution, so I sent him a link that might not challenge his reading level: Scienceforkids. Given his later responses on this sub-forum, I don't think he's learned anything.

Can you express those flaws in any kind of consistent manner?

Prob'ly not. But think there's enough of those 'Jenga' sticks to bring the whole thing down. :eek:

Your self declared minimal knowledge of evolutionary theory and your commitment to not correct this ignorance disqualify you from making comments on the theory that merit any attention, other than casual dismissal.
