Dear Stephen,

Let's see...the innumerable transitional forms predicted by
Darwin have for the most part not been found. Therefore the evolutionist
BY FAITH believes that either a) they once existed but have been destroyed;
or b) they can be explained by rapid speciation events (puntuated
equilibrium) by an as-yet-unkown mechanism or c) they exist and will
be found in the future. It is the FAITH of the evolutionist in the
theory that compels him/her to embrace a, b, or c above, NOT the
current state of the empirical record. Or do you have another
alternative?
