Gradualism in Evolution (was Categories ...) (Agnosticism)

David Turell, who is certainly more qualified than either of us in the field of biology, thought Bergman's article was "absolutely brilliant". Perhaps, then, you could help me to solve my gradualism problem by explaining the biological fallacies in the argument. I'm afraid that criticism along the lines of "worthless" and "discredited" and "creationist" are no help to me at all.-Hear,hear! The points Bergman raised are valid and unanswered by the Darwin Theory. As I have said before: the complexities presentd by living organisms are mindboggling. I get the urge to describe some of that complexity here. But that is the wrong approach. Each person on this site with no biology background needs to read a simple high school text to get some tiny sense olf the biologic knowledge out there. Yes, in a sense I am a creationist, in that I feel I have found evidence for an intelligence controlling all we see and research. My theory is that the process of evolution from simple to complex is coded in the genome from the beginning. We are currently finding Lamarkian evidence in the epigenetic studies. That is why Altenberg happened. Neo-Darwinism is n ot the answer.
