Paleontologist Alfred Romer wrote: "Below this [Cambrian period], there are vast thicknesses of sediments in which the progenitors of the Cambrian forms would be expected. But we do not find them; these older beds are almost barren of evidence of life, and the general picture could reasonably be said to be consistent with the idea of a special creation at the beginning of Cambrian times."-Natural History, October 1959, p. 467. You can't come up with a more recent source that supports your point? Pretty weak! Marc The point about Creationism is not coming up with more recent sources, but with more *ancient* sources! In creationist thinking, it makes perfect sense to point out that scientists who lived centuries before Darwin did not believe in evolution. I am not a creationist, and I have posted recent articles, which has been conviently ignored.. for example, new scientist article of plant evolution. it basicly knowcks down all previous theories on plant evolution. where you criticism on that? the article is still hot off the press..

Why the refernce, then? I looked, and all it says is that they've made some discoveries using DNA that correct and extend our understanding of the age, evolution, and distribution of orchids. It hardly "knocks down all previous theories on plant evolution". Marc |
