I believe in evolution,but this guy could do better to present evidence for the matter.

[Prophiscient]

His evidence was good enough to stand up in court.

I thought he did a great job. He speaks very well.

Kenneth Miller is brilliant!

First, Evolution is not something you believe in, it is something you accept. We inductively accept the validity of evolution due to large ammounts of evidence we have in Biology. Second, Miller explained it great, maybe you just need to pay more attention.

HHMI is awesome.

HH is about the only billionaire who was worth a dime imo.
