Schools teach ONE scientific theory as though it was fact (without explaining the flaws)I KNOW. It burns me up too. No one has ever SEEN the claimed chemical reactions occur, or proven by DIRECT OBSERVATION that they even occur in the so-called "chloroplasts," YET THE T-H-E-O-R-Y OF "PHOTOSYTHESIS" IS ROUTINELY TAUGHT AS FACT!!!
I'm glad someone is finally standing up to the ORTHODOX PHOTOSYTHESISTS, good for y..., er, wait... [reading rest of message]
Oh, never mind. I thought maybe you were opposed to dogmatism as a matter of principle.
You missed the best one of these threads which followed your reasoning in your sarcastic post. It was great: a creationist, without knowing what was happening, admitted that earthquakes and such were a result of plate movement and that plate tectonics and cont. drift were "proven" because "of course that's been shown, etc." From that it went into a satire about "Intelligent Drift Theory" and so on.
It was perfect. No one "sees" continental drift. but we all accept it as earthquakes bear out. She didn't even understand the inanity of her position (fully accepted geologic ideas re drift and plate movement, but could not see how her so-called "micro evolution" could amount to something more).
I'll be using that logic throughout my life.
