He did quote it. Multiple times.

(bolding Joph's, underlining mine.)

An unguided evolutionary process cannot exist. Have you invented a new definition for the word cannot?

It doesn't. It uses different words in a different order with the same meaning. I'm not sure why you think it's a victory to proclaim "It never says 'The cat was black'!" when it does say "The feline was the color of onyx".

Oh wait, yeah I do. Because you're clinging to whatever strands you can find. Well, it was a nice try.

My momma done raised me to be polite.

More hurtful than sticks and stones after all.

Or Alma will.

Apparently we liberals believe in people more than you conservatives. Interesting, here I thought we only ever believed in the gubbmint.

How can you not?

You must know someone of a differing opinion about religion than you. Do you hunt them down for their beliefs?

I know quite a few. In fact most people don't seem to share my lack of belief in a higher power. However, I don't bug them, they don't bug me about it...well cept my sis sometimes still gets a bit preachy, but it rarely comes to blows anymore.

Technically, he did say war of, not war on. And that's where his argument will be based.

I would like to re-frame the debate as creationism vs. evolution. It's already been pointed out that some religions can coexist with evolutionary theory.

I don't understand the all or nothing approach, personally. There are religious scientists, after all; statistically most scientists are probably religious to some degree.

I think it all goes back to the ability to tolerate ambiguity.

I don't think anything, because I am religious.

I have my good points, too.

I think I have a tissue somewhere...
