The University of Chicago professor (two of my previous posts have links) asserted that he had "launched" a new species of fruit fly. It doesn't take a close reading at all to find out that nothing of the sort had happened, but the scientist when on to say, "It's happened...at least it'll happen any second now! All indications are go!" This is a scientist? I'm supposed to take this ridiculous braggart seriously? And I refused to do so--I also refused to forget about it. If he says "any moment now!", why not check back to see if that moment has occurred? That was well over a year ago. When people pointed out--"There is no fly"--they were greeted with hoots of "Superstition."
But, there was no fly.
These are not scientists as much as they are priests. They don't present a reasonable theory, they insist I ascribe to it lest I be "ignorant".
I don't know how life began, and I don't credit these erstwhile Darwin-thumpers who claim to know, either. I have beliefs--but I don't call people "superstitious" or "ignorant" who don't happen to agree.
If this is science, it should be demonstrable and accountable--anything else is theorizing. Theorizing is OK--it's truth-seeking, but it's not truth itself.
[This is an argument of "where life came from"--ultimately, it is most important to those who are trying to prove that a God does not exist,] Who, exactly, is trying to prove this?
*You* know -- those imaginary 'scientists' in her head. Just like the imaginary Halliburton executives who are pulling the strings on the Iraq war, at least according to the hallucinations of the nutbar liberals.
