I have no clue as to why Snail spouted all that,

I was responding to what Troubador said in the quote at the beginning of my post. Makes perfect sense if you think about it. You have shown a similar failure to understand the point in the past. I thought it might help you to read it. Still no response from Troubador.

though I'll admit that blue is quite pretty.

If you'd followed the link in the first place, I wouldn't have needed to do it. (Just done it again. Works fine.)

Suffice to say (again) that "evolution is true" is not a scientific statement. All the scientific statements to do with evolution are embraced within the theory of evolution. The evidence for evolution in anatomy, morphology, physiology, biochemistry, genetics, ontogeny and the fossil record is overwhelming.

Strange that you are so at odds with the current thinking in the Dawkins camp. Perhaps you should have a look at that link that you refused to follow because it came from Jack. Here it is again to save you from searching for it - Why evolution is true

But evolution as a phenomenon is undeniable.

I've asked you (and Troubador) several times to show me some that is as evident as your (or my) left hand but still no response.

I find a certain elegance in being able to say that evolution is true.

...and others find delight in saying things like "and God said Let there be Light". Much joy may it bring you.

As for playing into pete's hands, I don't give a monkey's flying fart.

If you really don't care that you are giving pete moral support, I wonder why you have put so much effort into arguing against him.
