Im curious as to what everyones specific beliefs/opinions are on this topic. However, a belief w/o justification is useless, so please throw your $.02 in!


I know this has been discussed ad nauseam here, but Im now and wanna get a better feel of CURRENT feelings, not old ones!

I don't know if panspermia is right, or if the chemicals were already here, but it takes a special kind of nut not to believe evolution.

That was really funny. But you must remember that many people, especially in America, get their information on evolution from certain religious leaders who actually hold seminars teaching Christians (and other theists) how to hack away at the chinks in evolution's massive armor. The rest might begin a debate but will rapidly stop once they find themselves face to face with someone with a good degree of understanding on the subject.

Well, gee... I dunno.... I am standing here naked, hairy and chewing on a hamhock and wearing dead animal skins (Florsheim wingtips) on my feet as I look for my mate so she can ignite the firepit so I can heat-up more hamhocks.

I do, however, have an iPod! ; which incorporates an 'Intelligent Design"!

So my opinion on 'evolution' is that it seems like a good idea.... when will it start?

Oh... here is my mate... back from having her legs waxed.

Ugh, grunt, uugh.......
