He's...I thought so too until I looked at his blog. He's apparently a young-earth creationist (or at least has been viewing material from the Institute for Creation Research, such as Steve Austin's work on Mt. St. Helens). Perhaps he is spamming his blog to everybody who has comments on evolution.<BR/><BR/>I posted this comment (awaiting approval) on his blog (on this post: http://commissioned1.blogspot.com/2005/12/evolution-takes-exam-this-is-test-to.html):<BR/><BR/>It looks like your list has been assembled through the study of young-earth creationist material. I hope that your study will be more balanced.<BR/><BR/>For example, the conjunction of items 9 and 10 suggests that you believe 9 is false and 10 is true, but the reverse is the case. See Glenn Morton's paper on the geologic column in North Dakota: http://home.entouch.net/dmd/geo.htm<BR/><BR/>Morton is a Christian and former young-earth creationist (published in the Creation Research Society Quarterly) who almost lost his faith over the creationism/evolution issue because his daily work in petroleum geology showed him that young-earth creationism was false. He found a way to reconcile his faith and the evidence for evolution and an old earth.<BR/><BR/>Items 13 and 15 wrongly suggest that the canyons around Mt. St. Helens are comparable to the Grand Canyon when in fact they are very different types of formations.<BR/><BR/>I could go on and on through your list, but I think you should do so first.<BR/><BR/>I recommend that you examine Mark Isaak's Counter-Creationism Handbook, a version of which may be found online here:<BR/>http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/Lippardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16826768452963498005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15453937.post-1136737837505634792006-01-08T09:30:00.000-07:002006-01-08T09:30:00.000-07:00I think we just got spammed!I think we just got spammed!Einzigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06406227217230727209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15453937.post-1136737505396050472006-01-08T09:25:00.000-07:002006-01-08T09:25:00.000-07:00Hey.
