For what are you apologising?
- What is generally not understood except by scientists - and is utterly rejected by uninformed creationists (sorry Wade, this is accurate) - is that the concept of a species is rather vague.
Um. How shall I put this? You were expecting me to disagree? I already knew this. "uninformed creationists"? I don't recall defending those, though I can imagine you may have thought otherwise. You may remember me refusing to argue with you because I didn't think I knew the topic well enough.
I was intruiged when I first heard about the problems with the way organisms are named (fauna and flora). Especially when it was noted that the original structure was biologically incorrect. But it's convenient because everyone knows it and changing it would be Very Hard.
Wade, who has been implicated in a discussion he was only going to watch.
