Why "YEC"/Fundamentalist Creationism is BAD for America

Atheism has as much correlation with climate change as creationism has with sanity.

The words 'science', 'atheist' and 'liberal' are not synonyms. Your conspiracy paranoia is telling.Edited by Tangle, : No reason given.

Aliens anybody?

If you're going to make a claim like this it absolutely must be followed by, 'for example....'

I guess you have finally lost it. I'm sorry. But not knowing doesn't prevent you making totally baseless claims just like all the nutters have done for thousands of years. you neither know that nor even know what it means - if anything. Just religious blather.

You're confusing the process of scientific work with the work of *a* scientist. Science collectively corrects the errors of scientists.From your creation studies, I'm sure you remember Piltdown man. That's how the process of science works but more usually with new knowledge or simple error than deliberate fraud.

Everything can be questioned and tested - everything. But the ToE has been questioned and tested for 150 years and all that's changed are details. My personal opinion is that our understanding of how evolution actually works is still very naive. I think we'll find out that it's vastly more complicated and messy than we think it is now - and certainly how we discuss it here.But to actually test it you have to first understand it and then work professionally in the field. It can't be successfully challenged by people with no understanding of it and disagree with it for purely religious reasons. You need scientific reasons with evidence to support it.The ToE is real science so it can be falsified - all you have to do is provide the falsification. The simplest being a fossil found out of order in the fossil record. That's all it takes, one mammal in a rock older than mammals are found in. (In practice it would take a few to be conclusive, but if the ToE is wrong, that should be easy, you'd find no order in the fossil record.) The problem you have is showing the *fatal* flaws.There have been lots of flaws and there'll be many more, but none of them fatal and all add to our understanding. When science doesn't know, it says so. That all life on earth evolved is not something we don't know, it's now a fact accepted by all but those with religious reasons not to.
