It is pretty darn hard to **prove** a negative. ( Hand slamming forehead) Geeze!
I sincerely hope you are not a science teacher in one of our government compulsory-attendance, compulsory-funded, socialist-entitlement K-12 schools.
Just an observation:
It does seem that biggest defenders of evolution are also the biggest defenders of compulsory socialist K-12 schooling. The two do seem to go together.
Actually, that’s my point: I’m talking not merely about the difficulty of proving a negative, but of falsifiability. Also, you appear to be largely ignoring my point, but I’ll let that go.
If you say that the story was given, I ask: on what grounds? You’ve provided nothing to support it. You’ve provided no way to falsify the idea. And, in the words of Christopher Hitchens, “that which is asserted without evidence may be dismissed without evidence”; upon those grounds I dismiss your point as irresolvable.
Evolution, on the other hand, has a massive amount of scientific support, to the point that it is scientific fact. Based upon its evidence, I accept it as sound.
Also, I really don’t know how this relates to K-12 education, and I suspect it’s merely a red herring.
