5)Have you ever taken a high school AP Biology course or any college biology course?
I have a BS in Equestrian Studies, which required me to take Biology 101, an entire year of Mammilian Anatomy and Physiology, and many more specialized Biology classes dealing with Equine Reproduction, Lameness, Nutrition, Exercise Physiology, etc. It was a very Biology-intensive degree.
Also very important to my understanding of the philosophy of science, the scientific method, and to developing my critical thinking skills was a class in college called "The Nature of Scientific Inquiry."
A liberal Arts education can be a very good thing!
quote:
6)Do you "believe" in evolution or creationism (or ID)? (or none of these, or both?)
I am Agnostic with regards to the supernatural. (I was raised Catholic, however)
I accept that the evidence indicating the fact that evolution occurrs is overwhelming.

Thank you.

--If I had been pro-evolution, perspecive would commute in the eyes of many on the boards. Isn't it logical to say that if I were I wouldn't be so weak on logic?
No, I should think that if you were weak on logic, or had your facts wrong, you would be corrected no matter which position you supported.
You have seen us evolutionists correct each other quite frequently here.
As has been stated before, that is, at a very low level, peer review.

"We will still have perfect freedom to hold contrary views of our own, but to simply
close our minds to the knowledge painstakingly accumulated by hundreds of thousands
of scientists over long centuries is to deliberately decide to be ignorant and narrow-
minded."
