Why would biology not be included to science its all measurable observable testable?
They can only work with the materials which are supplied by only physical means.
As supposed to magical??? I supose we should ask angels, daemons, invisible pink unicorns, Zeus, Posajdon, and the flying spaghetti monster for some insight on magic.
I know a good many scientific men of the very highest standing who totally dissent from biology and are by no means inclined to accept evolution expositions, even of physical science, when those expositions travel beyond the particular branch in which science is only an observer.
Ok name a few
Now, if not absolutely in this conclusion, all the physical facts leading up to it, Biology is an authority in the strictest sense of the word. Science is an original investigator, and if any other man were to contest thier facts, or even thier interpretation of them, without thier independent observation, Biology and science in general would be entitled to pronounce the opposition opinions to be ‘pseudo-science.'
But tones of theories have been disproven and replaced with new ones.
We used to think cold as in lack of heat was actually a particle. We used to think the world is flat, we used to think the earth is at the centre of the universe, that there is a planet Vulcan between mercury and the sun, spontaneous generation, expanding earth, Phlogiston Theory, The Martian Canals, Luminiferous Aether, The Blank Slate Theory(tabula rasa), Phrenology, Einsteins Static Universe, oh and lets not forget the theory that the earth is 6000 years old and everything was created in its current form.
All of these and more well maybe not the last one had evidence that supported them but along came new evidence new observations that contradicted these theories so they had to be discarded and new ones formed.

I do and I know many others as well that feel spiritual.That is beyond physical means.And just because you can not hold it, touch it, or see it, or have not exsperinced it, mean it does not apply to this topic.
I have a dragon in my garage you cant see him, you cant measure him in any way it does not emit anything, it is perfectly silent, you cant touch him. Do you think the dragon in my garage is real?
Would you put people you know that are not involved in this discussion in a online forum.Because it is not just to put peoples names inside forums without thier consent.
In other words you cant name any or something like this video is what you have in mind.
My point and this one could as well.
Well maby one day it will and be replaced with a new one maby it wont just wishing Evolution is wrong is not enough to accept it you have to PROVE it wrong.
You havent proved that the earth isnt older than 10,000 years and to say you have lives inside fantasy.
Every dating method we have says the earth is way older then 10 00 years, dating methods that work on totally different principles but agree on dates i wonder why? And no dating method agrees with the age of the earth being 10 000 or less i wonder why?
You must have a eye witness
So if there is no eye witness then any criminal goes free? Eye wtinesses are not reliable, we are not a camera that records and saves everything the way it happened, we mush it all up and get half wrong.
Andwe do have eye witnesses of sorts the kind that do not lie called evidence physical measurable testable observable evidence.
If dating techniques were on trial in a court room and all evidence brought forth you would have a hard time convincing a jury without a reasonable doubt that you are right.
Ever heard about the Dover Trial ??
Again to early to say this one will not be disproved.
Well it lasted 150 years and every piece of evidence we find corroborates the theory and none go against it, so i seriously doubt it.
P.s. when you reply at the top right you have a button peek mode it shows you how to use quotes.

A Reply The Nineteenth Century May 1887
Well you kind of have to live in 1887 to not believe in evolution.
