Actually, we would all prefer to have been created - to be eternally
and immutably perfect. At least the process of evolution could not
reverse directions towards degeneration of the human race, as it has
since the end of the stone-age, and the onset of agri-barbarism, oops,
I mean agri-culture.
But unfortunately for your theory of immutability, the processes
of degeneration, of lapsing into lower forms of life prove the
existence of evolutionary mechanisms in negative.

Altho, you come across as an intelligent and fairly well educated
person, it seems to me that you like controversy for the sake of
turmoil alone.

Where are they? Would one of this mass of Ed's creationism fans
please rise, so as to substantiate what seems as a trumped up claim?

TO the contrary, your drivel is presented with maximum decor.

Objectively speaking, if the truth weren't scary, you would be
attempting to debunk my theories, instead of trying to beat up on
little kids like Ed. If you like to take up a real substantial
fight, go to http://www.lynx.bc.ca/~jirimruzek

And so man devolved from the giant Big-Feet?

A couple of photographs on your webpage is supposed to do all that?
Hmm, I find your scientific proof rather inconclusive. Rather, I feel
like you are begging, pleading, and so on, rather than using sharp
logic.

It saddens me to hear you think that they haven't tried. What about
the Origins by Darwin?

Your half-cooked theories prove you don't like the kitchen much
yourself.
