Money. Bored. Evolution.
Open offer, to NR, Inso, and anyone else with an extensive post history advocating that evolotion is false.
If you will read and digest the contents of talkorigins, which would be a significant amount of effort on par with a good undergraduate level class, I imagine, I will pay you 5k. Details subject to negotiation, and obviously some sort of test will be required, but the offer is not meant to be tricky in any way. Anyone? |

Re: Money. Bored. Evolution.
What do we mean by evolution is false?
I typically fall into the group of posters that you mentioned, but I'm not sure where I'd land on this one. |

Its arahant's 5 grand, though, so I'll let him decide. I had no idea he was wealthy enough to make this challenge. |

Re: Money. Bored. Evolution.
It is my understanding that Not Ready is not adamantly opposed to the truth of full fledged evolution as long as God is somehow behind it. But perhaps I shouldn't say that since I don't want you to rescind an offer that he might very well accept.

A geneticist friend of mine lent me a book on it back when Sharkey was around but it was too heavy going for me. |
