- I think you have hit the nail on the head. Who determines which
- scientist is reputable? There are plenty of Scientists on both sides of
- this issue who are entirely reputable.
-
- Aonsider also, the simple mathematical impossibility of Evolution. It
- is such a wildly improbable thing that this world could have evolved
- through genetic mutations (mostly harmful or useless) that it is
- ridiculous to consider it. It is also ridiculous to it is on the order
- of improbablility of a torando ripping through a large junkyard and
- creating a fully assembled 747 airplane from the piles of junk.
