Hmmmm, Mr. Reasonable does seem to take criticisms of Dr. Robinson rather personally, doesn't he?

Most scientists are in the business of regurgitating the same old same
old an infinitem and ad nauseum. It is a extremely rare event for
anyone to make significant steps in science. In addition almost never
does anyone throw out "everything we know". ALL scientists including
Einstein build on others' work. Like Newton said he was standing on
the shoulders of giants.

Ok. I fail to see what this has to do with my point that advances in
science are made by challenging, updating, and refuting the status
quo.

Interesting. Did you not read the rest of my sentence? Because the
rest of that statement is important and if you wish to represent my
position accurately, and respond to the points I'm actually making,
then you should include it.

How the Cambrian Explosion occurred.
(No Evolution was involved since all the creatures produced their own
kind. No transitional forms are seen which is consistent with the
fossil record.)
Genesis 1:24-25
And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to
their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild
animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. God made the wild
animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their
kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to
their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God
and keep his commandments,
for this is the whole duty of man.
For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden
thing, whether it is good or evil.
Think HONESTLY and you will find the TRUTH.

And that is why bears, walruses, redwood trees and beetles are all
exactly the same now as they were during the Cambrian. <snicker>

One small problem here - there were no land creatures during the
Cambrian or for a long time afterwards.

I don't know whether there is a God or not, but I do know that
everything that lives on land evolved many millions of years after the
Cambrian was over. And that's the truth.

1. Creatures always produce their own kind. Evolution does not say
that creatures don't produce their own kind.
2. All fossils are transitional.

And the Scientific American said:
"" Evolution continues today, and sometimes we can watch it happening.
Researchers in the November 6th edition of the journal Science say
that they caught in the act a population of butterflies in Ecuador
potentially diverging into two distinct species.
Heliconius butterflies spread across Central and South America. What
distinguishes differing Heliconius species is color variation. For
instance, in Costa Rica, the two most closely related species are
white or yellow, which prefer to mate with those of their own color.
In Ecuador, there are also white or yellow Heliconius butterflies that
live close to one another and have mated freely. But that situation
might be changing. Scientists studied the butterflies in captivity.
The two types differ in just one gene responsible for color. But
yellow males prefer yellow females. While white males go for either
color female.
The difference in mate preference could eventually lead to two
distinct species, as in Costa Rica, with yellow and white butterflies
that no longer interbreed. The researchers will continue to study the
role of genes in both color and mate choice—which could send the
populations diverging forever into new species.""

Wrong: I don't look like any god. Anyone can see me, ear me, touch me.
Can you say the same about your god?
I can guarantee you that we humans look much more like any monkey than
like your magician god.
I don't understand what is it in the article quoted that is so
difficult for you to comprehend.
"" Evolution continues today, and sometimes we can watch it happening.
"" And anyone can see it.
Can you say the same about creation?
You are too gullible. This podcast is about speculation not scientific
facts.
"Researchers in the November 6th edition of the journal Science say
that they caught in the act a population of butterflies in Ecuador
potentially diverging into two distinct species."
So, would you believe me if I told you some scientist friend of mind
thinks I am potentially likely to be the next Einstein.

Observe
Science does not claim that just chance the major contributing factor
contributing to the universe ,chemistry or biology. Furthermore
creation makes no sense what so ever.
Nor does science claim that humanity is descended from monkeys.
Now please provide scientifically verifiable substantiating data for
the existence of or any act of a god.
The ignorant have not read science nor do they understand it . The
criminally stupid refuse to try.
Why do you refuse to educate your self? There is little in the way of
crimes against one's self, so ravaging ,as refusal to learn and few
crimes against humanity so abhorrent as to perpetuate the
superstitious filth of religion. To do so with children is child
abuse.

To support your point, the genetic code is the most sophisticated code
known, yet its the only one that evolutionist believed occurred by
chance. Ridiculous. The living cell is far more sophisticated than a
motor car yet no evolutionist would believe in a trillion years that a
car could spontaneous assemble over time even if all the parts where
stock up at the same location. Ridiculous. But, these persons do not
believe in God which is consistent with the biblical teaching that it
is the fool who believes in his heart there is no God.

Matthew 5:22 (KJV)
But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause
shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother,
Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou *fool
*, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Evolution is not "by chance".

If automobiles had DNA and reproduced themselves by creating baby
automobiles, they too would evolve.

Many Christians accept evolution as a scientific fact. There is no
conflict. The only reason to reject evolution is, well, stupidity.
