Could it be that no questioning of the status quo is allowed? Not even a label? How about the fact that the pledge of allegiance is attacked in court? Or the symbols of religion? Does that not set a climate for what is happening? And it is not just Christians who think that the theory as espoused is flawed.

Notice that your scientist didn't use bible verses or theology to challenge evolution. Regardless, he doesn't really challenge the Theory of Evolution, but only some of its advocates.

Of course the theory will evolve and become more robust as more and more research is done. This is done with any theory and certainly doesn't put the theory itself into question. Its just the scientific method.

Very late ping. This thread popped up after my bedtime.
Evolution Ping! This list is for the evolution side of evolution threads, and maybe other science topics like cosmology.
See the list's description in my freeper homepage. Then FReepmail me to be added or dropped.

You have not been here long enough to have seen evidence counter to your statement. He evidently is a challenge to the status quo because of the attacks on him. It is sufficient to observe the reactions of the evolutionists here and elsewhere to see that the theory has flaws in it that they seek to ignore.
