Perhaps, but then, no "process" or fact has ever been observed supporting
either mainstream theory of evolution - Darwinism or punctuated equilibrium.
In fact, the overwhelming majority of data and observation refute both
theories. It should also be noted that Robin did not refute my reference to
"pseudo-religious" inferences.
Curiously, if we make poetic/philosophical/pseudo-scientific statements
about the origins/nature of life that invoke pantheism/animism (which I
believe Robin did), evolution, or non-Christian deities, no one would
complain. If, however, someone were to lucidly inject a relevant statement
supporting Judeo-Christian beliefs, the post would either be censored, or
create an immediate uproar. Go figure.
Personally, I am content knowing that all of us are interested in
beekeeping, and probably have diverse philosophical and religious beliefs.
However, I do think we should try not to inject them into our bee related
discussions too often.
Merely a humble observation on the nature of things.
Todd.
