Joshua’s eyes adjusted to the dim light of the dusty warehouse.  There were many old vehicles waiting for new owners to redeem them but he was looking for a very special one.  He had been in love with her for years and knew exactly what he was looking for.  As he made his way around the floor his eyes fell on what had been the pride and joy of many people many years ago:  an FX Holden in good nick but in need of TLC, a 1948 Morris Minor 850 side valve, an old Pontiac Firebird.  But these were mere distractions and didn’t hold the appeal of his own true love.

I am responding to Mark Steel’s editorial Opinion (Creation tunes in Darwin discord, 8 January 2009, Canberra Times Opinion, page 9).

In his over-zealous fundamentalist Darwinistic diatribe Mr Steel is at best ill-informed and bigoted. At worst he is deliberately misleading in his lambasting of Creationism and Intelligent Design (ID). Space will not permit me to provide a comprehensive rebuttal of his spurious arguments in entirety. I suggest that he thoroughly researches a Creationist website for an understanding of why his arguments are lame, tired and bizarre.
