How I agree with all these!!!!
Here's a list of brainy quotes from hundreds of authors.
Problems in Vertebrate Evolution (Population Biology)
I'm not surprized that I'm the first person to write a review for this book, or that it is no longer in print. If I were a die-hard Darwinian, I would probably feel a bit uncomfortable having this volume spread very far. That's how revealing this book is, from cover to cover. It's not an 'easy reading' book by any means, but it IS a tremendous resource. I would recommend this book to anyone who thinks the evidence for evolution is 'overwhelming'. I say, then you need to read this book.
Stahl, a solid evolutionist, provides her readers with a great service, although it was 'almost certainly' unintended. What do I mean by that? Simply put, Stahl gives an utterly exhaustive review of the 'alleged' evolutionary lineages of all the major vertebrate fossil groups, and provides the OPINIONS of the key experts who have studied them.Let me say it again, she presents INTERPRETATIONS of the evidence that usually lead to purely speculative conclusions. And there is often QUITE a lot of disagreement along the way.
The sub-title of Stahl's book says it all ("Problems in Evolution"), which is an incredible understatement,because Stahl is brutally honest in revealing how little we really understand about the evolutionary history of nearly all vertebrate groups - and this is perhaps her greatest service to her readers. In example after example she points out how [b]paleontologists have come up empty-handed in unequivocally identifying the transitional forms for nearly all the major vertebrate groups.[/color][/b] Her meticulous investigation reveals an incredible dearth of evidence that most science professionals and educators assume is quite abundant
That's very funny! You haven't provided any evidence of your god, and you're trying to tell us that evolution is sinking - based on half-truths and innuendos.
The evidence for evolution is overwhelming; in almost all of the sciences.
