YOU can't comprehend Pete's position, so you choose what to believe about him.

He's a man who skims over certain aspects of science (or skims over what other people have skimmed over before him) in an aggressive search for things that he sees as threatening to his beliefs so that he can be negative about them. His mission is to discredit any science that threatens his delusion. I'm all for people having delusions if they want. I have some myself (shut up about Liverpool, Musket). That's one thing. It's another thing entirely to make it your mission to destroy the honest and hard-won findings of scientists. That is not meek and mild stuff. It is dishonest and it is malevolent and it's why almost half the US population is in medieval ignorance about evolution and thr age of the Earth. You have let pete's "charming" online persona hoodwink you. You may think you're engaging him, but I have yet to see one single post from him that honestly engages with any real evidence. He's having you on, big-time.
