Intellectually honesty is, indeed, a good thing;  But, I must say that
your email, as a whole saddens and disappoints me.  I think the
community that uses this email list may be inclined to tolerate brief
departures from its central topic, and within reasonable limits, I think
no harm is done by dabbling in these tangents.  But a serious response to
this spray of shallow creationist arguments and deceptions can accomplish
little more than to try the patience of most of the KC Linux community.
Each of the points you've regurgitated is flawed, and each will take some
considerable verbiage to refute.  The very fact that you've raised this
particular collection of arguments tells me that you are either naive and
mislead or outright dishonest, and in either case, this email list is not
the place to address your problems.  If you are simply trolling and trying
to start an off topic holy war on this list, good try, but I'm not going
to be a party to it.

If you honestly want to explore answers to your questions, I suggest
you look through

If you want to conduct this argument off this list, I'd be happy to
argue with you.  But I'm not going to be put in a position of pissing
off the population of this list in an effort to argue with someone who
may not even want to listen to reason.
