Canard? Perhaps I was being unfair and perhaps my words were not selected with precision. I should have said that conventional contemporary wisdom of the time thought that the world was flat. That unprovable notion is not worthy to be called true science, just as the Darwinist fables of today are certainly conventional contemporary wisdom but fail the standards of science.

Call Darwinism faith-based speculation, but don't call it science. A Ph.D. and a lab coat does not a prophet make.

Science is never proven - it's substantiated by evidence or falsified.

Just like plate tectonics is "faith-based speculation"?
