To catch up on the origins of this thread:
EvC Forum: If we are all descended from Noah ...
quote:
WS: Evolutionist scientists have been for quite some time victim of a terrible conflict concerning absolute certainty, unable to decide what is real, since the emergence of quantum mechanics.
Ah yes, time to attack the scientific method!!!!
Quantum mechanics has what to do with evolution? QM effects are sub-atomic and mostly wash out above that thresh-hold.
quote:
Many "creationist"(*) scientists are laboring under no such loss of deterministic reality.
Unshakeable belief is not the same as verifiably fact.
quote:
If they are revealed as Bible believers, they are considered "Creationist" anyway.
uh.... no. There is at least one evolutionist on this forum who is also a 'Bible Believer' Yeah, I know.... not a 'true believer'....
quote:
Other Christian scientists are active in the issue, rightly labelled "Creation scientists", who are also contributing to their respective science fields apart from the issue at hand. There are also non-Christian scientists who are ecidedly anti evolution, taking positions closer to those of Creation scientists.
So...? There is a point to this?
quote:
I wasn't aware of the Polybius contribution. Interesting. So what are we arguing?
I was objecting to your characterization of our government as more democratic-- more directly controlled by popular vote-- than it actually is. Now, when pressed, you are backing down.
quote:
WS: Sure, but certain to sort whimsical from lasting will.
Exactly! And also exactly the opposite of the method you have been arguing as the reason for the acceptance of creationism in public schools.
