The majority of your brain cells.

"pops out"? LOL.


And you seem to be missing the brain cells that tell you when someone not

He might have been mistaken for "Al" <aavery6801@xxxxxxxxx>, a recent
arrival on talk.origins, who has already blotted his copybook.

I did make that mistake. However, it sounds to me like this AL might
be trying to challenge rather than innocently question. If he's
really curious you'd think he'd do a few minutes worth of reading on

1) Checking the original post I don't find that to be strongly supported by the post.
2) Innocent until proven guilty.

The question does display a warped understanding of evolution, but there is assorted evidence that that is not uncommon among Americans - whether the ladder fallacy, or a belief that it involves saltation, or other misunderstandings that escape my attention.
