My predicition

Keep dodging, Heywood. All you'll accomplish is having nothing whatsoever to point to and say "see? I was right!" Unless you define your term "lineage," your claim is useless, because you can pretend that it means anything you want it to.

Or maybe that's the point? Like the anti-evolutionists refusal to define "kinds."

He is a theist. That says all that needs to be said, and all that can be said, about his intellectual integrity, and whether he is capable of adapting any standard of hypothesis which can in principle be capable of ever contributing towards reduction in general state of ignorance on any issue about which some religion has seen fit to bullshit.

Life already was discovered on Mars. Are you predicting that they will discover it, again?

if life has already been discovered on Mars, then we clearly have no idea what we've discovered. The most that can be said is we found some conditions on Mars, such as Methane that seem to be seasonally replenished, that we as of yet have no explanation for other then biological processes. But while we have thought of any convincing nonbiological explanation, we haven't ruled it out either.
