All Evolutionary scientists have been Evolutionary Indoctrinated

The answer to your question is the scientific method itself. The very point of the scientific method is to disprove a hypothesis. No scientific theory is "fact." No one who even so much as paid attention in High School science classes thinks that scientific theories are "Fact." They are the best descriptions that fit all of the observed evidence. A hypothesis becomes a theory when it has been tested repeatedly and is never disproven.Does this mean that all science is flim-flam and just a best guess? No. These theories have been tested and tested and re-tested. Evolution has never been disproven. It has been modified by new data along the way, but the actual mechanism itself has never been disproven. The theory of gravity is just a theory...but you and I are still held to the ground by the force it describes, and actions that depend entirely on our understanding of gravity (space probes, satelite orbits, etc) lend support to the notion that, even if it isn't dead-on, our theory is pretty close to the truth at minimum.If scientists believed in evolution simply because of indoctrination, they would be failing to use the scientific method itself. Wrong. The highest honors in science go to people who disprove commonly held theories. Newton disproved common theory about gravity. Einstein disproved the notion that newtonian physics were constant. The goal of a scientist is to invalidate common conceptions so that future theory is based more closely on fact. Irrelevant. Once an individual reaches the point in their scientific carreer where they participate in research, their goal is in fact to disprove hypotheses, even if they believe the hypothesis to be true (in other words, the testing of the theory is what prevents biased opinion from influencing experimental observation and fact).

Now now, let's not make ad hominem attacks. His proposal can easily be demolished without them.But you're right. Religion (well, biliblical literalism and fundamentalism, anyway) is all about indoctrination to the point where observable evidence is ignored in favor of preconceived notions.Let's stick to just showing that science is not though.

Sure, but he would have to provide evidence to support any claim of a vast conspiracy of indoctrinated evolutionists. We have already shown, in several different posts with several different examples, that science aims to disprove its own theories to further the persuit of truth. Why would scientists latch on to evolution when they have been willing to accept things like relativity and quantum mechanics that totally rewrite previous thought?

I see. You meant to point out that if everyone were indoctrinated to believe evolution, iano should as well. It looked like you were saying that his argument is invalid because he's simply been indoctrinated into his own beliefs.But iano is not an evolutionary scientist. He's talking about a specific subset of people - scientists, who were possibly indoctrinated by their long education on the subject.

iano, indoctrination may be responsible for many people's belief in evolution. Certainly highschool students do not typically examine the research themselves - they simply accept it on the authority of their teachers and textbooks.Actual research scientists, however, the people who write research papers and modify the Theory of Evolution, who use its mechanism every day in their experiments, have done more.As I said previously, scientists are encouraged to disprove accepted theory (whether by a small change to make sure it matches new data, or by totally disproving the entire mechanism). The very principle of science is to question everything. Theories exist to be tested. Science is, by its very nature, set to counteract any "indoctrinated" beliefs in persuit of the provable truth.Because of this it's difficult to imagine an evoltionary scientist believing in the ToE simply because he was indoctrinateds that way. You need to provide evidence that the indoctrination actually occurs.
