Those people who want to sell a lie, wholesale, usually (if not always) begin by redefining some key word.

   As we look back over the twentieth century, we can see at least four words that have been redefined.

   Early in this century, Christianity taught the seven deadly sins. Number one on the list was "Pride". We now have Pride_1 and Pride_2,... Pride_1 being archaic.

   Around mid century, Buick Motor Cars produced a model called the "Special". Now, with the advent of "Special Ed" and "Special Olympics", we now have Special_1 and Special_2,... Special_1 being archaic.

   We have Gay_1 and Gay_2,... Gay_1 being archaic.

   A word that presently is under strong attack is "Evolution_1",... which will probably soon become archaic. I would like to discuss the difference between Evolution_1 and Evolution_2.

   There is a strong tie between the word "evolution" and the word "revolution". To paint a picture of revolution, picture a circle that begins at a point and returns to that same point. To paint a picture of evolution_1, picture a bed spring that winds upward and outward, never returning to the same point, and can not return to the same point! Evolution_2, somehow seeks to merge the two concepts. Self initiated paradigm shift is now being called evolution!(???)

   Evolution_1 has always recognized biological change without loss of genetic information. There is possibility of return to some former condition. The famous "Peppered Moth" is an example of this, and cannot fit Evolution_1. It is "Revolution" in every sense of the word.

   Where there is complete loss of genetic information, it absolutely cannot be regained! There is no way to study it! Therefore, since there was no eyewitness to Evolution_1, it can only be accepted by "blind faith"... It is the "religion" of people inflicted with the disease of Pride_1,... a disease that makes everyone sick except the one who has it.

   Yours eternally,
