> > Tony: I think you misunderstand my criticism there. It has nothing to do with time, or gender usage, but rather that there are clearly distinct segments of creation happening.

> David: Yes, I understand that. But evolution is a sequience of events, segments or stages-The difference is that in evolution, the steps are not discreet. They transition across the lines of 'according to their kind'. Now, as a challenge for you, if God created things in stages, as the Bible says he did, wouldn't that actually give the 'illusion' of evolution while simultaneously explaining the gaps in the fossil record AND the fact that we do not see any further crossing of species boundaries continuing today?
