Stephen,
I love what passes for logic in Fretworld. Do you really believe reliance on the Bible makes people more likely to change their minds? I'd say it's just the opposite, that believing that there is Absolute Unchanging Objective Truth makes it extremely difficult to see the subtleties and ambiguities that blur the hard lines of reality. Creos turn evo when they finally understand that the battle between religion and science is as ridiculous as a fight between a lion and a shark. If their faith strengthens along with their curiosity about nature, they'll develop a realistic outlook toward scientific inquiry. It's only the wackos who will still be howling that evolution is wrong because it doesn't give glory to God, and the ex-creos will be laughing at them along with the rest of us.
What you say about Newton is true. He was wrong, and everyone who claims to know about science should realize this. However, his theory was not displaced by supernaturalist horseshit like yours, it was replaced by a theory that explained everything Newton's did and more. In other words, good science. This is why I can't believe you even grasp the philosophy of science, let alone that you (ahem) taught the subject to actual students. Stop blaming the Blind Defenders of the Outmoded Paradigm for the fact that your ravings don't constitute science (despite your vacuous mantra 'epistemology hypothetico-deduction Bayes theorem') and get it through your head that evolution is here to stay until something better comes along.
