7. They're mutually exclusive.
Besides, if the platypus proves anything, it is unintelligible "design."

10. I know many who think otherwise.
As for the unintelligible design, you're spot-on though.

11. I also know many who think so and I once did.
Nevertheless, I am convinced that an objective and dispassionate look at the facts supports my view.

13. I know. I'm not objecting.
I was just responding to your post about a lack of votes for it.

14. That's true. On this board there are likely to be a higher % of atheists than in the general
populace. I forgot to account for that.

17. There, I chose that option
Mostly because I think it's absurd to state that one CANNOT believe in both. The only people I know who believe that are fundamentalists - be they religious or atheist.

Proof that whomever is responsible for intelligent design (God, Goddess, FSM, etc...) liked to spark up a J every now and then.

I knew after I posted they weren't marsupials but I didn't know what they were.
