This is funny. You're so desperate to deny evolution that you have to denigrate pattern matching, one of our primary tools for figuring out how things work.
Scientist: "I have noticed that the air pressure drops before a storm. Perhaps we can use that to predict storms."
hopespringseternal: "You're just pattern matching."
Doctor: "Everybody who got sick drank from the same fountain!"
hopespringseternal: "Means nothing. Just a pattern."
Now you are arguing like a child. Without a scientific explanation of the physics involved, noticing a pressure drop is only the beginning of a scientific explanation. Does the storm cause the pressure drop, or the pressure drop cause the storm? Sometimes the pressure drops and there is no storm. Noticing a pattern is the beginning of the work, not the end.
