Re: [TruthTalk] on Creationism

Homer Simpson, while attempting to steal a candy bar from a vending machine, got his arm stuck. He dragged that one over to another for a second attempt thus getting both arms securely locked in. Somehow, with his nose, he managed to dial 911 for assistance. The operator asked Homer 'Are each of your hands wrapped around candy bars?' Homer replied, 'your point being?'   David: You sound a little like Homer in your reply. ----- Original Message ----- From: David Miller To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: March 23, 2006 10:59 Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] on Creationism Lance wrote: > There are as many 'species' of creationists as fish.   The same can be said for evolutionists.  So what is your point?    David Miller ----- Original Message ----- From: Lance Muir To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2006 7:02 AM Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] on Creationism There are as many 'species' of creationists as fish.
