Of Speciation and Strawmen
-
Let it be said that ignorance of your opponents' positions is not a refutation of them. (yeah, yeah, I know, evotards always accuse me of being ignorant of the theory of evolution but they never have supported that accusation)
But anyway, a bit of history-
Karl von Linne (aka Carolus Linnaeus) was a Creationist in search of the originally Created Kinds when he created binomial nomenclature. At first he thought the "species" level was the level of the Kind but later changed that to the level of "Genus", meaning speciation is just variation within a Kind.
What that means is that Creationists understood and accepted speciation took place and as a matter of fact they posit rapid speciation took place following a large extinction event (the Flood).
For example a search of Answers in Genesis on "speciation" yileds many references documenting what Creationsists say about it.
And then there is The Current Status of Baraminology
The point being is that the fixity of species is a strawman. It appears Charles Darwin got the concept from Lyell but he never bothered to check its veracity.
What does this have to do with anything?
The strawman is alive and doing well thanks to mental midgets like DrGH/ Gary S. Hurd. Ya see Gary is proudly pointing out his blog on the
emergence of new species as some alleged evidence that refutes this strawman.
The real pathetic thing about that is Gary has been told, on several occasions, that this is a strawman but he still persists. And that means he is just a dishonest loser who should be ridiculed yet he is stroked by evotards of all stripes.
Go figure...

Hey shit for brains - your 'current' article about baraminology is 5 years old. Dr. Hurd's blog posting was over 2 1/2 years ago.
You really are on the ball there JoeTard.

That's right you stupid fucking moron- that alone should mean Hurd the Turd should have been more than aware of his strawman.
You do understand how that works, right?
Information comes out 5 years ago explaining the Creationist position on biological evolution, then 2.5 years later, more than enough time for someone with 1/2 a brain to find and read, Hurdy Gurdy posts his strawman.
But thanks for continuing to prove that you are an imbecile.
