Current scientific findings- what a joke When they stop announcing "well we are going to have to completely rethink everything we know about... because we have just discovered..." on a daily basis. That is exactly right. Because science does not represent itself to be absolute, unquestioning truth, science is always ready to bow to better evidence. Unlike certain theologically inspired institutions I could name, who, because of their absolute assurance of their lock on TRUTH, felt justified in burning jews, witches, and scientists who disagreed with them.

So why are you so convinced of the theory of evolution, is not really just an idea, which changes constantly in light of new data, moving further and further away from the original concept.
Is it not the scientists being the current "witch burners" to anyone who disagrees with their entrenched "ideas", ask any scientist who is not working to prove entrenched "ideas", how open minded "the establishment" is.
