Take a gander at this textbook, for instance. Evolution, by Mark
Ridley. Ridley is of the Department of Anthropology and Biology of
Emory University. Apparently Ridley thinks he can state the
creationist position on anything, yet in his bibliography he lists no
creationists, nor their works. Does he do any original research on
this subject. I doubt it.
that's fine because creationists themselves don't do any research.
they're parasites, limited to criticizing science without any
foundation of their own.
On page 65, for instance, Ridley states, "Creationism offers no
explanation for adaptation."
One wonders at this incredible statement, particularly because he
lists no creationists books in his bibliography.
OK what IS the creationist position on this? oh...there isn't one.
Ridley, seems to be ignorant on many facts, particularly in the fact
that all modern day creationists accept Mendellian genetics. In fact,
we argue that Mendellian genetics discredited Darwinian explanation
for upward or Macroevolution. Hence, in order to escape the
Mendellian confines imposed upon evolution, evolutionists now focuses
on mutations to provide that escape.
gee go figure. creationists want theology to replace science so they
say science is invalid.
who cudda guessed?
The fact is, evolutionists are lying when they omit the fact that
creationists believe in Mendellian genetics as the explanation for
diversity. The fact is, God basically created types of
characteristics.
this is not a scientific explanation. you're welcome to invoke special
pleading, handwaving, smoke and mirrors all you want, but mutations
can be measured and seen in the lab.
god can't.
this is simply more proof of the intellectual backwardness that
religion is capable of creating.
