If you're going to tell me that biologists have biology all wrong, geologists have geology all wrong, and/or paleontologists have paleontology all wrong, have an argument other than "Dr. Walt Brown has an engineering degree from Emmm ... Eye ... Teeee!!!!"

Whoever said anything about "all wrong". Surely they must have gotten something right, even if just by random chance (just kidding). Are you going to tell me they've got it "all right"? No errors anywhere and perfect understanding of all phenomena in those respective subsets?

My point was that in the quest for knowledge persuasion of any sort is a false objective. If you intend to persuade me, then you are not seeking knowledge, you are seeking control.
