Yeshuan - I read your entire post, twice as a matter of fact - a policy I
have when I leave a comment that is a refutation.
Your claim to be very well educated in the scientific theory of evolution is contradicted by the number of typical faux pas you have interjected throughout your post. Aside from those I mentioned in my comment, there are others such as; "However, there has never been found an animal in a transitional stage of evolution. This is evolutions "Achille's heal" and why evolution is still only a theory and not a law." . . . where do you get this stuff? Or this one: "There are mechanisms inside our cells that could not have evolved." . . . . really? ....sayeth who? These things and many of the other statements you have made either skirt along the perimeter of the actual theory, if not outright introducing new aspects to it while sounding good enough to be convincing. At least to the less discerning amongst us or those with a religiously biased agenda.
Your articulation of what you refer to as "Progressive Design" on the other hand, is an amalgam outline of a number of lesser known hypothesis that fall into the category of propagating events as the origins of life. An avenue of enquiry that I tend to favor with some qualifications. . . but then you meander into what is no more than a reconciliation of evolution with creationism. Seeming intent on accrediting any number of evolutionary progressions to the big invisible guy.
For the record, I didn't write this post in response to your post, it was in note form for a few days now but seemed a good time to post it

Gome. . .
You helped me to realize I did not express my views clearly. I am very well educated on evolution. I hope you read enough of my post to realize this. You are correct that evolution does not address the beginnings of life. I should have stated how atheist believe their own theories on origins. I have educated myself from many sources. I believe some of the vernacular seep into my writing.
