Here's an interesting quote................
"Arguing with people who wanted to believe in creationism was quite a
wasted effort,"
"If you're dealing with somebody who really doesn't need evidence to
hold a
position, then offering evidence for your position doesn't really
impress them.
But I think it's very tragic that there's still such an effort to
discredit the idea of evolution.
"It's interesting, though, that even people like your president have
had to concede that the avian flu is capable of mutating -- he
doesn't
like the word evolution -- into a strain that could kill us.
Well, that's absolutely true, but the mutation he's talking about is
evolution.
So, people are going to have to come to terms with this."
Dr. Richard Leaky

Can't for the life of me imagine toward whom that quote is directed,
and I couldn't agree more

Such scholarly work, from these Christian sites.

Can't even spell his name correctly! I think that tells us all we
need to know!
