And there are tons of evidence.[/i] > > > > dhw: But you believe humans will never find out how life evolved. The fact that you are now a convinced theist does not mean that your belief is any more scientifically based than that of a convinced atheist. Neither of you can possibly know the truth, and so your respective interpretations of the scientific facts lead you to nothing but hope that you are right. I have absolutely no objections to you and Mr Dawkins having your respective hopes or indeed your respective blind faiths, but I do wish you would both stop kidding yourselves that your hopes and your faiths are somehow supported by science, which is supposed to operate independently of faith, hope and subjectivity!:-| > > I understand that your bottom is completely stuck on the points of your personal picket fence. But I had a reasonable thought conversion from agnosticism discovering factual science about evolution and other considerations. I found evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. I went where the evidence took me. Could your brain be stuck also? :-( As for Dawkins, he has a blind eye to the evidence in front of his nose, as presented by ID.
