You'd never make it in the science biz if you think the mild comments I made are unacceptable. Again, you are mistaken. I make my living as a mechanical engineer, and I know when people are trying to prove their point with good rational arguments vs. those who like to belittle others to make themselves look better and control the dialog. But, since you don't think you can control yourself, bye.
No, I'm saying that those terms were invented and promulgated by the biblical literalists. And what I said was that YOU are a creationists. 1) You use their language, and 2) you're defending their ideas. If it quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, etc.
"So does that make the National Academy of Science religious creationist since they make a distinction between micro and macro evolution?"
The more fools they, for adopting terminolgy invented by and fostered by anti-science creationists.

Here's a clue. Mechnical engineering is not science. It USES science. I started out life as an ME until I decided I liked chemistry better. And even among mechanical engineers, the comments I made would be considered absolutely OK. I've caught lots worse flak in tech meetings FROM mechanical engineers.
