Every generation has a couple of rouge scientist who challenge the common way of thinking. Many scientist jumped on the string theory bandwagon a while back and now it seems that theory is falling apart. When plate tectonics was proposed at the beginning of the 20th century it was scoffed at, as being a fanciful idea.

This is the problem I have with arguing with atheists and/or evolutionist. They have a high level of arrogance because they know something the "common" person doesn't.

Actually, you are arguing with a scientist. It is you who is filling in the "atheists and/or evolutionist" business.

And scientists do know things the "common" person doesn't. Why do you think we spend years in school followed by decades of study and research if it isn't to learn something.

And with all of that research and study scientists still make mistakes. So sue us.

If you think you can to better you are welcome to try. (Hint: it's not as easy as it looks.)
