I found this to be an interesting article about supply-side economics and would be interested in comments.

I see your point!
I see your pointed little head!
Germs, germs, germs.
They just might be in your back ground.
Poly wogs given a whole lot of time; are not going to design and produce micro chips, or anything else for that matter.

Judging by your reply, I have to say, I do not think you understood the point of my post about curiosity and imagination. But I must admit that without further explanation it was rather obscure, ambiguous and overly broad.
But as to my "pointed little head", on close examination, I could find absolutely no points. Even the most pointed part, my nose, ends in a hemisphere with diameter of about 3/4". And as to being little, I have been told many times that I have a big head. But enough on that.
Curiosity leads one to observe and seek understandings of the world about.
One is told, God created man and all the creatures.
Curiosity leads one to wonder when and how.
Study reveals the past existence of creatures unlike any alive today.
One observes animal breeders, through selective breeding, develop creatures with new characteristics.
One wonders if God could have created the creatures we see about us by selective breeding of those creatures that no longer exist.
One wonders how God might have selected the creatures to breed.
One wonders if God could set up a breeding pen that automatically selected which creatures would breed.
One wonders if the world about us is such a breeding pen.

I can see how people have different concepts of God, and thus different religions.
BUT; how anyone discounts creative intelligence, is beyond me.
There must be something beyond ignorance and stupidity for that.

I would suggest that curiosity and imagination might account for why one might not give too much credence to "Intelligent Design Theory".

I thought I was replying to your post but mostly on the topic and believe in Creationism :
Please do not use the "Reply" button.
Please use the "Quote Reply" button.
When you use the "Reply" button, we have no obvious clue as to whom (or even which post) you are replying and must rely on the content of your post.
Given that, I think you were asking about my Jan. 30 post where I referred to this:
http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2011/10/04/3331957.htm
Below I will try to respond to the questions you posed.

... in the statement "A descendant species can split again and again" maybe with the same DNA seems that would not evolve to ape and does not answer whom is the ancestor?
Children do not have the same DNA as a parent. The following wikipedia article talks about common ancestors.

As in ape or man since ape is closest to man still doe's not explain Darwins Theory. If man stays within it's own DNA species how would it be possible to progress as an ape? I'll give my summation which is; Man would have to mate with ape and possible after all, from the beginning man has mated with other species but not the closest to man that would evolve to ape and we are talking from the bibles writings man came first !! Creationism or Evolution ??????
I understand you to be saying:
The bible says man was created first. Therefore...man mated with other species (?)...but not the species closest to man that would evolve to ape (?)...so how could Darwin's theory be correct.
Darwin's theory does not assume man came first and does not rely on the writing in the bible.

Any new idea's pertaining to this topic ? would be interested in another's opinion !
I'm not sure which topic you are wanting opinions on. Was it your previous comment quoted above, or the topic of this thread? Or was it saltwind's post, "The theory of evolution is a theory of how God created the various species of the planet."?
If it was the later, your previous post makes me think you understood saltwind to be saying "God created Adam and Eve, then all species evolved from them." I am almost positive that this is not what saltwind meant. I'm fairly sure saltwind was saying:
God created the universe and through the natural processes in the universe life was created (came into existence) and through the process of evolution by natural se******n all the species we see were created (came into existence).

Akin to the dexterity of a magician. Similar in intent, it also appears.
As I understand things, a magician uses dexterity (and distraction) to hide the workings of "tricks", so as to make them seem mysterious.
I don't think I was trying to be mysterious. I thought my little story clearly pointed to the relative nature of right and left.
When you replied, "It's a riddle, right? I just love riddles.
", I assumed you were joking, given the eye rolling smilie. So to play along, and show of my extensive knowledge of Latin (it extends to the internet where I have access to Google t***slate), I replied, "A sinister riddle requiring dexterity."It seems that reply was a mistake because it seems to affirm the idea that my little story was a riddle. To me, it is no riddle.

It's all bullmueller. Mueller indictes the unindictable. Go get 'em Mueller. Ride on in to Moscow and lasso them Russians who dissed hilliar on the Internet. What criminals! And, plus, they praised Trump!
Now that's a huge crime, even for an American.

That's not what the indictment says. USAToday provides the text here:

Which leads to here:
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4380632-Indictment.html#document/p3
Even though it is 37 pages, it's not that dense so not too onerous to read.
The indicted are not "unindictable". That's just what the indictment established. It is unlikely that any of them will be brought to trial in the US (barring a careless trip to a country with extradition treaty to US).
What it does do is put on legal record that Russian actors interfered in US e******ns in violation of US law. So despite what Trump has said so often, Russian interference in our e******n was not "f**e news".

A little story. Jesus comes upon a group of people and says to them, "Let the righteous among you be on the right."
Those sure of their righteousness quickly move to their right, leaving the humble and unsure to the left of these self determined righteous.
Jesus looks out and who does He see on His right?

It turns out the FISA court warrant applications for secret surveillance on Carter Paige, and through him, the Trump campaign, may have violated the elaborate internal FBI procedural safeguards put in place by, hold your breathe, wait for it! ~ Robert Mueller. http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/02/the_read_of_the_day_sharyl_attkisson_on_the_fbis_strict_guidelines_for_fisa_warrants.html
Rather than the americanthinker blog, just go to Attkisson's article:
http://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/372233-nunes-memo-raises-question-did-fbi-violate-woods-procedures
Wherein Attkisson writes:
"It’s incredible to think of how many FBI and Justice Department officials would have touched the multiple applications to wiretap Trump campaign adviser Carter Page — allegedly granted, at least in part, on the basis of unverified and thus prohibited information — if normal procedures were followed."
Given the description of the Wood's Procedures, it is incredible to think that the wiretap warrants were base on "unverified and thus prohibited information". To think such of the warrants, questions the integrity of the many FBI and DOJ personnel who develop the warrant requests.
It is worth reading some information about the Steele dossier:
