Re: Mecury and Evolution -- try again
As noted: the magnetic field of Mercury has NOTHING to do with evolution.
What you might be asking about is overall dating of the earth and solar system. This has no direct connection to evolutionary biology.
Instead of proposing a new topic I suggest you go to the Dates and Dating forum and answer the questions in:
Message 1
There is a lot of material there I'm afraid but if you expect anyone to help you with Mercuries magentic field you'll have to show you can handle such material.
In addition, you have not, as I see ABen has told you, supported your post with references to the research you did. Since that is the very first thing you're going to be asked you may as well add it to the opening post to get things started.

Re: Mecury and Evolution
The way I define evolition is because I see the references to different types of evolution everywhere. Ex, the evolution of the solar system, the universe's evolution, (both in Universe by Design -Danny Faulkner) I've seen evolution used to refer to changes in stellar, geological (my Biology textbook, Ill get the rest of the info tomorrow) and biological changes.
Ah, one problem explained: since the same word is used here and obviously is NOT refering to the same thing it is necessary to afix some quaifier. By default around here when the word evolution is used we are refering to biological evolution which is a specific process involved with things which imprefectly reproduce under selective pressure. Please be clearer when you are using the terms in the future.
I notice your site is as carefless with terms which they have no excuse for.
You will find yourself in some difficulty if you think that AIG will be adequate support. You can go that way if youw want but they are not intending their material to stand up to considered, knowledgable critism; they are happy if they can sound knowing to those that want to believe what they have to say and at the same time don't know much themselves.
You may continure with that as support of course--- this is just a warning that you are going to find yourself on your own against a number of people here. Some, who drop in now and again, are actual physicists and astrophysicists. It gets a little tricky if you don't know the material you are discussing when that happens and more so if they sites you are using don't know it well either.
I did recommend you search for discussions about Humphrey's here. AIG, I notice, uses him as a reference. He is, I'm pleased to tell you, not going to be able to stand up to actually critisism.
Good luck. I'll promote this when you've cleaned it up so it can go into Dates and Dating since I think it is deep time you are attempting to critisize isn't it?

Edit OP for promotion
Now that you have a better understanding of the words you can go back and edit the opening post to clean it up as requested.
When you have done that we can promote it. Should it go in the cosmology section or dates and dating?

Creationist Explanation
Normally, I'd ask for you to give the creationist explanation and your evidenced reasoning for why you like it better.
You're new so I'll promote this now. I'm guessing that this has something to do with dating so I'll put it there for now.
You might as well start working on the post which explains the creo explanation and your reasoning. I expect you'll be asked for it several times .
