Angry Need help with writting a letter about a commentary

First of all, I've been reading posts at this site for the past 6 months and I find most of them to be titillating, informative, and thought provoking and for that I thank you all. I'm a newbie here, I profoudly appologize, and I need help on writting a rebuttal to a commentary in my college's newspaper. It's about *surprise* the big lie called evolution and even though the commentary's claims are extremely misleading at best and can be mopped up with info from Talkorigins.com , there are some arguments I don't know how to approach, such as the Ernst Haeckel vertebrate embryo drawings and the Miller and Urey experiment. Your help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Oh !@$^%, I almost forgot to put down the link.
Here it is:

Sounds like someone read Wells' book. Talk about excepting lies as facts.

You should check out this page which rebuts Wells.

You should also go to you campus science library and get the review of Wells that appears in Nature 410, 745 - 746 (2001).
