Think of how many good works he might get done while he's spending all this time furiously shitposting, copy-pasting arguments long-refuted.
If this guy really cared about the unfortunate and downtrodden, I'd think he would be out working to help them. But no, he'd rather sit in mom's basement and clatter away on the keyboard. Why is this not surprising? Another thing: there was once a guy who advised us to give aid to the poor, shed worldly wealth, and share with the downtrodden. He advised his followers that being rich means nothing. Yet our OP here obeys and abides with a religion that erects churches costing $190 million, all while human beings are dying of starvation. The Roman Catholic Church is one big freakin' camel trying to get through the needle's eye. Do they think their god doesn't see, and understand, chicanery? How little faith this one has! He asserts that his god sees all, yet will not notice such an ostentatious display of wealth. @Nishant Xavier, the church you follow is hypocritical and ethically bankrupt, even as it swims in material wealth. Your tithing builds monuments while it oppresses people. That means you share their guilt for their misdeeds. If you're okay with that, okay. But don't think it goes unnoticed.

Lol, I'm not running away from anything. I already addressed these objections.
1. Every Fossil is transitional or intermediate because every species is an intermediate. 2. Darwin was writing in a period were paleontology was a new science and a lot about species formation and fossilization was unknown the theory of evolution may have started with Darwin but it didn't end with him (Strict Gradulaism, for instance, is not a feature of modern evolution for the simple fact there are a number of mechanisms that render it unnecessary) 3. We have found more than enough transitional forms including many between Avian and Non-Avian Dinosaurs of course nothing will ever satisfy creationists who 90% of the time won't even acknowledge transitional forms exist, And pointing out that those fossil numbers are not bound to population or time scale and that acknowledging that fossilization in general is rare is simply stating a fact. So this whole rant of yours just shows you really don't know what you are talking about

If Michael Denton had anything worthwhile to say he would say it in the peer review literature instead of writing pop science books. It's Amazing this person has a science degree but refuses to engage in doing any science
