I'm SO looking forward to seeing "Curtain" - It's by far the best Poirot book of them all!
I really hope that someone will put it out on TPB REALLY soon so that us non-Brits can see it as well!

TPB REALLY is that US version ITV (thinking BBC America) or is it a channel that does all sorts of TV ...?

Half of British Adults don't believe in Evolution? Really? I didn't realise there were so many stupid people. Although a lot of them will be prepared to believe in a sky pixie or some other shite like that.
Shark Bay in Australia is now called “Safety Beach”. So it is.[^]
I shall not bother going there then. Had it been Shark Bay I would have gone but now the fluffy pussy brigade have taken over the Ocker Homeland I suppose it is just a matter of time before MM is wearing a tutu and sipping a pink gin.

my lack of belief in the subject comes from ignorance as it doesn't intrest me. Does that make me stupid?

The answer to my next question may determine that.
How do you explain the vast multiplicity of life, its relative nearness of one species to another, and the universality of certain biological and biochemical functions even amongst very disparate genera?
If not evolution, then what? Space Pixies and Magic Dust?

Thats just rubbish that you tell your kids when they are very young.
The rest I have no idea as I have no interest in the subject.

Completely different subjects as Wand Erection and Bieber fever are tastes in music and the idiots that front them
Evolution has many different theories which require thought / understand and interest.

No, there is only one theory of evolution.
And to believe in it requires very little thought or understanding.
You believe in gravity I take it.
That is only a theory of course and I doubt you have studied it in any detail either.

But this still doesn't answer the question due to my ignorance on the subject of evolution does this make me thick?
Again my ignorance is due to my lack of interest in this theory.

One does not need to have studied a subject in order to believe in it.
And it is not a question of faith.
Where evidence exists that supports a theory then the theory is sound.
Science exists mainly not to support a good theory, but to disprove a bad one.
To not accept evolution as the driving force of nature is to reject all the evidence of one's own eyes.
You can observe evolution in action, so it obviously does exist.
And there is currently NO other explanation for speciation.
Ensatina is a great example of observable speciation. It is a ring species that shows how simple evolution really is.
Melospiza melodia is another.

Dave lets start with one fact, you have an interest in the theory of evolution.
I don't have an interest in the theory on evolution, I know it exists but why should I believe in something that I have no interest in?

Now, that was a little to much.
Dalek Dave wrote: And there is currently NO other explanation for speciation.
Keyword being currently.
Science is not static. Tomorow things may change, something new may be discovered. Evolution is a theory, and as all science theories, it may be replaced by a better one someday.
