Please quote source and list the identifiable phylogeny.

If you're going to suggest that all the quotes were taken out of
context, even though all the quotes are self-contained, then point out
some that are taken out of context and put them in their context.
Otherwise your point is moot.

By the way, audience, an evolutionist, always accuses a creationist of
taking evolutionists out of contexts. Which is why I usually keep
photocopies of the original works so that argument can't be made. That
actually happened at a creation v. Evolution debate when Gish was
accused of taking out of context to which he then produce the work and
quoted till the evolutionist turned red. Rather unfortunate wouldn't
you say?

But the evolutionists around talk.origin are emotionally driven to
protect their cherished beliefs insomuch that after awhile of losing
arguments they post links that supplement but not prove their views.
Additionally some may changed the subject with stupid banter, or
inject sarcasm and forced (written down) laughter.  But that's all
they can go. Even when I laugh at their stuff, I admit that I don't
mention it because it doesn't fit into this forum, nor should it
affect the debate, because it is not professional.
