A catastrophist in the literal sense? Where God periodicaly destroys most life via world wide catastrophy and re-creates new life forms?

Interesting.

Catastrophism went out of favor in the mid 19th century. I've always been fascinated by that theory myself. Strictly speaking, there is NO EVIDENCE for creation just as there is NO EVIDENCE for evolution. Evolution is an excellent theory that would tie many things together and answer many questions, but there is no EVIDENCE. It seems to me there is a stronger argument for catastrophism than for evolution or creation.

Or were you kidding...
