Science changes as new information comes in. That always seems to disgust
religionists. Religionists prefer knowledge that doesn't ever change. Not a
single sentence of the Bible may be added, edited or deleted to reflect
what is now known about the world, that wasn't known 2800 years ago.
You are so delighted by this new information. Does that mean you *really
are* a young-earth creationist after all?

I am aware that the conclusions arrived at in this work will be denounced
by some as highly irreligious; but he who denounces them is bound to shew
why it is more irreligious to explain the origin of man as a distinct
species by descent from some lower form, through the laws of variation and
natural selection, than to explain the birth of the individual through the
laws of ordinary reproduction.
