The Yecs claim that science methods flawed. No crap it is called Standard Deviation, and that is usually asociated with Human error. But just teach your children right and maybe the world will be ok. For the most part the these people that belive this yec crap dont have much education to fall back on and that is ok becuase the world needs workers not thinkers. Well if you want to find the truth however yuo will need to start reading books, plural that is non fiction ones like math, chemistry,physics,biology,geology,after which you can go out and do a little field geology and see for yourself . one cool spot that encompasses 35 million years of North American evolotion is the badlands of South Dakota (http://www.nps.gov/badl/) there you will find no evidence of a global flood however you will see that the Native American Indian Has been on this continent for over 12,000 years Twice as long as the Earth supposedly existed. you will also see how vulcanism and plate tectonics works as well as see species of animals go extinct and others EVOLVE into new ones (like the modern Horse)I my self have been there 12 times.but the world is full of places like that. however the ruling bodies of the past didnt want thinkers thay wanted doers. what better way then to threaten you with eternal damnation if you question the leaders rofl oh by the way please give 10% of what you make hehehe (umm I guess That guy could do math) I Am just amazed that Yecs have so many followers, wow guess that says something for how dumb we are lmao I am dead serious people need an education and teachin untrue bs isnt the way to help.

Don't they teach kids ANYTHING in Ph.D. school these days??? As Marq points out, a valid scientific theory is one that can be tested and potentially disproved. This is not rocket science, doctor. In fact, it's high school science. But maybe you were out sick that day. And as for the premise that all theories are created equal -- um... Yeah. Sure. I got a theory for ya: You, doctor, are not a human being. You are a little fuzzy ball of belly-button lint. That's my theory, and I'm sticking to it. Dr. PB&J sez:

So when all the hurricane survivors on the Gulf coast start getting sick from spending a week in standing, stagnant water filled with bodies, we won't bother to send them any penicillin. We'll just pray for them. After all, both germ theory and prayer theory are based on faith. Yep, all theories sure are based on faith.

Sidhe, one of the most fun things at the Sue exhibit at the Field Museum is a cast of one set of her arm bones that are "touchable." For such an enormous creature-they look microscopic on the full skeleton-her "dainty" arm bones are almost <i>exactly </i>the size of mine, from shoulder-to-wrist (the hand is, of course, very different). One wonders if they served any useful function, or if they were mere vestigial leftovers. Oh, and D.

By doing that classic 180? projection, you only brand yourself a <b>wingnut</b>. The basic difference between an actual science and a religious scheme in disguise, such as ID, is that the science can, <i>potentially, </i>be disproven by newly introduced evidence. The ID <i><b>cannot</b></i> be disproved <i>or </i>proved... <i>by design. </i>Thus, it is revealed as thinly-veiled religious dogma. Ah, Dr. BLT.

There is no such thing as objective or pure science. So one cannot promote the theory of evolution as being scientifically superior in any way to the theory of intelligent design. Furthermore secular humanism is, by all intents and purposes, a religion--one that is increasingly being shoved down our throats by folks who pretend they are free from religious bias.

You're just jealous that you don't live within 40 miles of Sue, like I do, and that you didn't get to watch them actually extracting her remains from the rock matrix, like I did. And that you're not about the same distance from Rockford, where they've just unveiled a juvenile T-rex (whose nickname escapes me) that I'm making plans to scope out soon.

Personally, I can't bear to click through and find out. Forget Baby Jesus, it'd be enough to make the cold impersonal universe cry.

The fact that Genesis is a combination of 4 different verbal traditions combined into part of the Torah? That's why there are two different creation stories in the first chapter: 1.) The idea man and woman were created equally is presented first, most likely an earlier story. 2.)the whole rib snatching idea came later from Priestly traditions, (that were more male centered) and was inserted in after the first traditional story was presented. See, that right there? That's called scholarship. And logic. And critical thinking, and a whole bunch of other complicated words that do not apply to fake internet doctors.

If we're going to play that game, Jesus also said that I don't have to eat my peas and can ice cream for dessert. It's in the Bible. Maybe he was talking about some guy named Jesus (the common Spanish name) and that "Me" is suppsed to be lower case "me", and that guy's just stating a fact.
