i'm saying that you can not speak in absolutes regarding the origin of man. therefore, you can not definitively say that we evolved from apes or were created by God. concrete and conclusive evidence does not exist for either argument, only faith in one or the other. i dont see how you can fully support one or the other. and how can you prove that science, as we know it, is not merely mans study and understanding or creationism, itself. myself, i dont know the answer, but am a fan of both... RE Ron Paul: i dont know you personally and dont wish to give offense, but how can you discount him (and i'm not saying you have, totally) because he believes (as it appears) in God? he's has proven not to allow that to influence his decisions as a congressman because he is responsible enough to differentiate between his personal beliefs and his constitutional responsibilities. i'm sorry you hate me so much.
