Imperfect, you didn't address any of the points I raised and you didn't address any from Starcrash before me.
Here's the thing, you involve yourself in a discussion on evolution when you attack the theory as false, that is fine, but then you make excuses not to engage in discussion. I think perhaps you do not feel confident enough to defend your position. I keep Wikipedia open on my desktop all the time when I am posting because people are always challenging me with things I don't know. For me forums are a great learning experience. I can't begin to tell you how much I've learned through discussions with Christians. If this is the reason for your hesitation just take one point at a time. I am certain I will be learning as much from you or even more than you do from me. Or perhaps evolution is just not something you care to know anything about?
As far as trusting Darwin goes, if he had written his book and that had been the end of it then I probably wouldn't know anything about the theory, but that's not what happened. Evolution took the scientific world by storm. I am not trusting in one man, but in an entire scientific establishment. And it is not just biologists that defend evolution but geneticists, geologists and other disciplines. You can say they are only men, but it is only men (and women) who constructed this scientific and technological wonder that we live in. Personally, I owe the medical scientific community my life. I have no doubt that the evolutionary biologists, and others, know what they are talking about.

that about sums it up.
honestly, not to be disrespectful, but i have little interest in reading that rubbish.
