SlySpy, an actual infinity is impossible. A really good and interesting read on this subject can be found in a comparative religious book entitled See the Gods Fall. The chapter on Mormonism deals with this subject.

And since poor, uneducated women have more children than educated women, what's that suggest for the human race? Devolution?
Being poor is devolution? Shame on you.

I have read large swaths of the book Melanism, and this one Pooey:

from: http://www.hebookservice.com/bookpage.asp?prod_cd=C6103



I suggest you read this book as it came out 4-years after Majerus’ book and deals with more recent info. Also, nothing in that link refuted my claims Poooey. For an example of neo-Darwinism to be a valid example, you have to show me that new information arose where previously there wasn’t any. No new information was created! Black moths existed before & after the revolution. Nor have you shown me that these moths rest of tree trunks in the wild.

In a series of experiments between 1965 and 1969, Sargent tried to replicate Kettlewell’s background-preference work. He got contradictory results, and concluded that the moths’ resting places were [i]genetically predetermined, not selected, as Kettlewell believed, by individual moths noting whether their “circumocular tufts” matched the background.

Of Moths and Men, pp. 249-250.

If you don't trust science then why are you using a computer? Why do you receive medical care? Why do you use artificial transport?
Way to set up a straw man Poooey! There is a difference between operating science and origin science. Let me repeat, there is a difference between operating science and origin science. Operating science built the computer I am using, not origin science. Origin of life scientists use operating science in their experiments at times, but operating science hasn’t given an example of evolution as of yet. Artists have given origin scientists what they are looking for, in fact, one of my favorite pictures - drawings - is this:




A tooth was found in a field, a single tooth, and this drawing showed up in the popular press of the day from that single tooth. A whole community of persons and their environment. The tooth was later found to be from an extinct pig. But this tooth had already served its purpose, it was used as a “proof” of evolution in the Scopes Trial. Just as the peppered moths were used (and is still used) as a proof in textbooks and classrooms all over the world. Icons for the non-religious, that’s all they are.


All truth is relative! (Is that a relative truth?); There are no absolutes! (Are you absolutely sure?); Its true for you but not for me! (Is that statement true just for you, or is it for everyone?)
