        you do seem to be the one slinging mud. Probably (although I
cant be sure) he can present his views to people. As for whether they
are worth it this depends on how many times you have done it. As a
biologist I think that Darwinism is of more merit than "scientific
creationism" but I have had the argument so many times that I can
rarely be assed these days.

        ps I picked this creationism argument because although
its highly controversial in some areas, it is so off topic on this
board that it should not start an argument I dont want to have
again. I hope that I'm not proven wrong here.
