Am I mis-remembering, or were you the one a couple of weeks ago that labeled “absurd” that scientists had ever thought or considered a hippo to whale evolutionary scheme, stating no scientists have ever thought such a thing. I then referred you to a textbook, and two articles in science magazines and journals that referenced exactly that, and in positive terms. Was that you? Because I never received a response or acknowledgement, or even better, an adjustment in your position. These weren’t creationist papers, but evolutionary. I would be the first to agree with you as to the absurdity of such thinking, but again, it wasn’t from my school of thought, but yours (meaning evolutionary). I’m pretty sure it was you, although I don’t feel like going through hundreds of posts to find it. If it was you, then you already know it to be true. And whether it was you or not, it just shows how fluid and meaningless many statements made here actually are. Someone declares something to be true or false, or absurd, and when shown to be wrong, simply don’t respond and just continue on with the next proclamation, as if nothing had happened. Never an acknowledgement of error. Such juvenile fear of being wrong about something. But all too human.
