After Steve's magnificent "Odd that you should think there's polarity there. response to my juxtaposition of two mutually exclusive statements followed by the customary insult to my intelligence - "You confirm that you are, indeed, out of your depth.", I had more or less given up hope. Clearly it was as futile arguing with Steve as with the creationists.

But now "I can present evidence for the origin of species by natural selection that overwhelmingly points to the truth of evolution. Points to." and "Evidence that can be questioned, criticised, tested, ridiculed, contested, repeated and peer-reviewed.". Still a long way to go but it looks as if "the searing truth of evolutionary theory" is cooling to the cold light of reason.
