Clive argues, quite convincingly in my opinion...

Allen_MacNeill,

<snip quote about the works of the Grants work on Galapagos finches>

If that Darwinian evolution then it certainly isn’t Darwinian common descent. I liked David Berlinski’s response to this when he said, I’m paraphrasing, that the beaks change with the wet and dry season and regress back to the mean. Maybe one day we’ll have Galapagos elephants evolved from the finches, maybe, but we need a lot more evidence than beak variation. To me, this strikes as saying that since your children’s hair is usually a different color they’ll eventually evolve into a new creature. Do you believe that Allen? Do you believe that your children’s offspring, way down the lineage, will be entirely new creatures? Do you think they will be better or worse than humans?

...that he doesn't have a fucking clue of what he's talking about, or of elementary scientific concepts.

(Link is from Corny's bizarre thread in which he argues that global warming (which you guys deny, Cornelius) is evidence against evolution.)
