What does plastic wrap have to do with evolution?
That is what you guys don't get. Being a "scientist" is not the same thing as understanding evolution. You have to be an expert in the field, to have a valid opinion or at least understand something about the field.
Not all opinions are valid. Only informed opinions are valid. Thinking that a misinterpretation of the Bible informs opinion on biology is the mistake.
Not necessarily, Shubi.
Recall that one of the strengths of the model is its use of data from divergent sources and fields--presumably, if a revolution occurred in one of those fields, on the order of QM or Relativity, which greatly impacted our current understanding of the world, evolutionary biology *would* be affected.
In which case, even those outside of the field of evolutionary biology could affect it.
Or to take a different example from a different field, today on Free Republic was about how transfers of blood platelets for clotting could transfer potentially hazardous infection, since the platelets are stored at room temperature. Even many practitioners in the field were unaware of the risk, but I'll bet a lot of lay people would have immediately asked the question "Room temperature? Isn't that RISKY?"
Cheers!
Don't be foolish. Being a scientist has to do with science, which obviously answers this charge ---He stated a fact: "Creationists don't do science."---, except for someone with a severe lack of mental capability.
