Id like to set a folder aside for resources on the Evolution issue (no debate in my mind) Ill start with the Talkorigins FAQ site which is superb and responds to most of the common fallicies associated with Creation arguements and has numerous links.

http://www.talkorigins.org/origins/faqs-qa.html

If your into that sort of thing I reccomend Stephen J Gould's 'The Structure of Evolutionary Theory', Which is very long but filled with wonderful data. Its more complete than his other books, however I would reccomend most of them especially 'Wonderful Life' which addresses the inconsistancies with the Pre-cambrian period.

http://www.skepticfriends.org/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3316&whichpage=1 Peptides three point debate arguement. Very Solid.

Please feel free to add more sources and books/mags/studies etc.

"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini

Great resources for evidence of evolution there.

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Used to be some good info at this site.... but this place has been sadly neglected for quite some time. Last time I checked their forums were kaput. Not sure if their text-file archive is still functional or not.
