Apparently you (like most evolution defenders who have some level of faith) have built a wall between science and faith.

I don't know what if any Biblical history you do consider accurate but I'm certain that my wall did not begin to tumble down until I put more faith in God than men. With each falling brick I began to question evolution piece by piece until I came to a fork in the road.

Funny thing is you think it's all faith for me while I'm just trying to show that there are literally hundreds of anomolies that evolution can't answer truthfully. Walt Brown is the creator of the website I've been referencing http://www.creationscience.com/ - a website that also provides multiple other refences. I'd rather pick his brain for science than all of the catholic popes throughout history.

"I'm just trying to show that there are literally hundreds of anomolies that evolution can't answer truthfully."

Yet your very postings contain myriad examples of science doing EXACTLY that - answering anomolies.

This is how science works. Data is found. It is analyzed. A theory is put forth. Predictions are made as to the finding of future data. Data is found which meets the predictions. Other data is found, which doesn't quite fit the theory. The theory is amended. More predictions are made. The process repeats. That is the scientific method, in a nutshell.

Evolution's predictions have been supported through many decades, through many, many "anomolies", and the basic concept is unchallenged. Yes, the interpretation of some small details has changed - that's the way it is supposed to work. The basic truth, that organisms have changed over time, that species have evolved, has not changed. All your fervent wishing will not make it so.
