I do NOT get this supposed irony. What does my typing, on a computer, plugged into a power source that gives me access to the internet to answer your comment, have anything to do with the claim that humanity came from a primordial hot steaming pot of pond scum?
None of that would exist with out science.
The irony is that while typing on a computer connected to the internet you said “look where scientific methodology has brought the country”. Without scientific methodology, there would be no computers and there would be no internet. Pretty straight-forward.
