Hello, DiscipleFire. Welcome to EvC.
Claiming evolutionary beliefs as scientific is one example.
I'm not sure what you mean by "evolutionary beliefs". But the theory of evolution
is a scientific theory. It leads to testable predictions of phenomena that can be observed.
And these phenomena
are observed, so it is an extremely well verified theory.
Pointing this out isn't bias -- these are statements of fact.
Now, seeing that the theory of evolution has, over the last 150 years, predicted many, many phenomena that have been observed, I can say that it is not unreasonable for me to actually
believe that all known species have, as a matter of fact, evolved from a single ancestral species.
Now, my belief may be wrong, but it doesn't seem to be a result of bias -- it is the result of noticing that the theory of evolution not only provides a very logical explanatory frame work for biology, but also leads to further predictions that end up being observed.

I see very little support from any mods for topics supporting creationism. I wonder why...
I would guess that it's because creationism is counter to reality, so creationists must either use incorrect "facts" or illogical arguments or both to support creationism, and the moderators simply point out that it's not debating in good faith to continue to use incorrect facts and illogical arguments even after the mistakes have been pointed out.
