May I remind you of what you wrote Wednesday, June 28, 1995 in your "
Clarification of my Progressive Creationist position"?
>I now think it is a wrong approach to deny transitional forms and
features. This however does not mean that every claimed transitional
form should be uncritically accepted. Terry has posted good evidence
that all primates (including man) have the same switched-off gene
that prevents them from synthesing vitamin C. This is good evidence
of common ancestry and I provisionally accept it, pending more
information. Much of the negative attitude we get towards transitional
forms is IMHO from reading YEC material (eg. Gish, Morris, etc). From
a YEC viewpoint, even one proven major transitional fossil would be
fatal to their view. But it is not fatal to a PC, indeed transitional
fossils should be expected (albeit rare).<<

"how could an animal chew and hear while this was happening?", are
ignoring the evidence. <<
I am talking about the same apologetical books. And there is other evidence
that is being ignored.
