For my Christians Friends

Well, we certainly have established that you are not authoritative.

What seems true today was not so for peoples who were largely illiterate, and depended on sound memory.

You should do some research. Your analysis is practically groundless.

Sorry, but your claims to education does not square with your abilities.

In this case, I think your "Ph.D." definitely did mean piled higher and deeper

If you believe in evolution, then one could make the case that all insects today came from just 2 many years ago.

 

I don't see the Theory of Evolution as differing from the Christian religion, or Judaism and Islam for that matter. Actually, the first hints of that process were given right in the Book of Genesis, God building the World in stages, layers.
