Creationism and ID are not scientific theories, and until there is any reason to suspect that they might possibly provide better answers than "Neo-Darwinism", there is no place AT ALL for them in schools.

"Jonathan M." should be ashamed of more than his insipid article; he should be ashamed of his performance here. It was cringe-inducing watching him flounder as he tried to discuss articles whose findings he should have been capable of explaining if he had read and understood them. He also erred badly by bringing up a subject--neurulation--on which Myers has expertise.

No point in arguing someone as entrenched in ignorance as you...luckily most people are a quite a bit more intelligent than you and are willing to look at evidence. You don't even understand what evidence even means...you dont understand what science means...or Atheism...you are completely in the dark...and you choose to be. No one could ever convince you of anything cuz you dont under stand logic in the slightest. Learn to read more than your bible dumbass. Sorry you dont want to believe facts.

ha ha not as dumb as atheitards who believe chance plus nothing plus time makes the impossible the inevitable you big bumbling atheist clown. Thank God for the internet - where people can at least expose the madness of your position. put that in your primordial pipe and smoke it. moron - The evil in the biology class today knows no bounds - stick to understanding the magnificence of God's complex design and quit your bumbling speculations . Jackass

[whiteliketar]

"I am proud to be one if i am calling out you devilish deceivers of God's Biology." - Who are the devilish deceivers? You mean scientisits and the people who study and understand rational, substantiated proof? What is God's Biology? Creationism? The earth is 5000 years old and all animals were created as they are? Or do you cherry pick from your bible as well? You've been brainwashed by your religion and because of this you dont know how to look at evidence objectively. Grow Up - you sound dumb

[whiteliketar]

No you bumbling atheitard fool - smearing all micro-changes with the lunacy of macro-changes is a built in retard atheist approach that folk like you and the crazed pz myers and dawkins and thunderfoot and Donexodus will always cling to. If i am troll - I am proud to be one if i am calling out you devilish deceivers of God's Biology.

[case0060]

Your a troll...popping on various videos on evolution. People are just dismissing you right off the bat...which is the correct thing to do considering the ignorance of your comments. Go back to your dogma...your too close minded for evidence and progressive science.

[whiteliketar]

The madness of macro- evolution at its best - led by this rabid salva dripping atheitard pz Myers
