Hi Glenn,

Further to your belief that the Mediterranean basin was the site of the
Genesis flood - local, by your reckoning - I suggest that Noah and his
sons would have had every right to feel aggrieved when, acting under
divine orders, and in obedience having constructed a large sea-going
vessel over a long period of time, they were to find that the flood they
had been conditioned to expect turned out to be a mere 'puddle'! The
logic just doesn't hold up.

Again, it appears to me that we are no further forward regarding the
matter of the missing transitional forms than was Charles Darwin. As I
suggested in my last communication, I believe the very concept of an
'intermediate' is flawed - and the fact that undisputed examples are
missing from the geologic column (where they should be found in
abundance!) comes as no surprise. Can you really imagine that a fin on
the way to becoming a leg offers an advantage to a fish - a creature so
perfectly tailored to its environment? I suggest that evolutionists are
too ready to forget the necessary gap in time and see the alleged
'finished product', viz an amphibian.

I don't believe you'll ever be rid of either of these logical
'millstones'.

Regards,

Vernon
