John, the 'theory' of evolution is considerably more than an educated guess. Unfortunately, the term is often misunderstood. In scientific parlance, a theory is an explanation that is accepted to be true, because it is based on a given number of facts that have been demonstrated - proven - to be true: in other words, based on extensive empirical evidence. It's a hypothesis that is an 'educated guess'. Hence, we have a ' theory of evolution' and not a ' hypothesis of evolution'. Homo sapiens aren't a result of a cross-breeding of species, but of ongoing, separate adaptation over millions of years. Donna Yes, and the proof is always too complicated (or the methods/data/procedures are kept under wraps) for us inferior intellects to understand. I'm sorry Donna, but every group has an agenda. And the agenda isn't always layered in facts. Jeez, I've become a skeptical, untrusting old geezer. I do believe we humans breath in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, though I haven't ever seen the gasses. Hmm... another perverted fact...? Of course it is a little discomforting when Sandra tries to smother me with a pillow during my sleep. I think I better take Ray's advice.  Interesting the direction this thread has taken since my initial question to the knowledgeable Christian folks. John
