Leave the nuclear physics to those that understand it, not to those trying in vain to understand the attractive/repulsive forces involved. My two cents on the evolution side of things... Evolution is a fact, it does occur. The point of contention is whether it is the cause for the current diversity of species seen. (this may generate a storm of abuse... :D |

My old man used to say that if she's been born with Meltla's "bullocks" then she's have been my uncle. I suppose you could say its vagualy related to evolution. :cool: | Scouse (83) | ||

His alleged disagreements with Steven Gould (which have been made much of by such believers) did not stop him from writing to SG just before Gould's death, proposing that they make a joint statement rejecting any such "debates" . Gould died before they could do this, but was all for the idea . Dawkins's draft of the letter to the NY Times, and the background is in his book "The Devil's Chaplain" . |

Tony ( another old fossil...) Yup, he believes that th earth started 5000 years ago. But I tell him he might be mistaken. If he says that civilisation started 5000 years ago, that I would at least believe him. Cheers |
