I'm sure I could dig up some links on this particular example, but I think you and I both know it wouldn't do any good anyway, since both our minds are made up.

No big deal, I don't think anybody expected to change anyone's mind. Most debates held in private forums such as these are tables for a sort of intellectual ping-pong. Good luck with your baby.<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>

Some people enter the debates with the view to convince or convert not realizing that this is an intellectual sparing match where for the most part no one wins. Those that enter with the purpose of sharing knowledge, learning and sharpening your debate skills get the most from this forum.

Debating scientific issues from the point of view of the bible is weak. I learn a lot from these debates from researching topics and about how other people think. I don't think people debating scientific issues from the biblical perspective actually research both sides of the subject.
