We usually consider them as misdated. And probably extinct, but not in any pre-Adamitic era.<br /><br /><i>"I was aware that there are evolutionists who believe that the mechanics of evolution were designed by God, but I was not aware (as I think I inferred from your article) that there are creationists who feel the same way."</i><br /><br />I do think the mechanics of microevolution were designed by God (at least after the fall) so as to exclude macroevolution (not that it would have been possible before the fall either).Hans Georg Lundahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055583255516264955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3179072227484380121.post-15743341862710379402012-11-24T06:47:18.733-08:002012-11-24T06:47:18.733-08:00Utah, one of the most spectacular states in the co...<i>Utah, one of the most spectacular states in the country. It's a major hotbed for dinosaur discoveries and many national wonders of the world. Because of this, and long winters, too, Sadly, there are creationists in Utah who show no shame in spitting out one stupid lie after another, including this guy, Andy McIntosh, who claims to have a Ph.D in aerodynamics, but not earth science. It is not uncommon to have a creationist who major in subjects that is not of earth science and biology.</i><br /><br /><a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/utah-s-false-testimony-to-catastrophe" rel="nofollow">Source:<br />Utah's False Testimony To Catastrophe<br />http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/utah-s-false-testimony-to-catastrophe</a><br /><br />I repeat: It is not uncommon to have a creationist who major in subjects that is not of earth science and biology. (Bad grammar in text as found). Contrast the claim of TheoreticalBullshit (somewhere in video as I recall) that "all academia" supports evolution.<br /><br />That also may be repeating what his science teacher said.Hans Georg Lundahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055583255516264955noreply@blogger.com
