yeh, I suppose it was an interesting article,or at least an interesting take on those who believe in end times biblical teaching.
being a brit, I cant really comment on whether such beliefs engender such politicized mindset in americans as is described.it seems an entirely alien way of applying the scriptures to me.

bill-your beetle thing sounds interesting,especially as it seems to indicate the volition of the creature in adopting camouflage.i don't know if that's why hawk raised the question.i had always thought the theory was that the beetles that survived would be the ones that had the best disguise, and their progeny that had that advantage passed on.there is certainly nothing in that, that is against creationist thinking.no one is denying mutations happen,and that they may be benrficial to the organism sometimes.that is however,far and away from the addition of information needed for the evolutionary pathway.beetles have only been turned into beetles , despite observation over numerous generations.
and I must disagree if you are claiming that there is no stasis in comparisons of modern creatures with fossils of supposed deep time.
how many examples would you like?
that is not to say that every organism has survived,as even in modern times some face extinction.
