"A rape victim is pregnant. She didn't intend to conceive a baby. The rapist didn't intend to conceive a baby. So Who intended to conceive the baby?"

Wrong way to even phrase a question, Lighter. Even the idea that 'choice' was involved assumes too much... but maybe you knew that.

I just saw this weekend, at a friend's house, a book by Stephen J. Gould called The Structure of Evolutionary Theory (2002) . It runs over 1200 pages...and he had a number of OTHER books dealing with the issues. Anyone who has doubts about evolution should browse a few... then read a few... then THINK about it for several years.

It is not an easy thing to see all the interrelated ideas and history and data involved. To just say,"Oh, I don't need all that, I believe "X" is simply taking the easy way out! Science, and kind of truth science offers, is amazingly complex... but once into it a certain distance, it becomes evident that it (science) is necessary to TRULY understand who & what we and the universe are all about....honest.... would I mislead you?
