Untestable events have no place in science class. If you claim an event required 400,000 years to occur it's not observable or testable. . . So is it OK to execute people for crimes that were not witnessed and which cannot be recreated in the laboratory?

That would be up to the jury and the judge. You think our ciminal justice system should be taught in science class?

But is it OK by you for judges and juries to send people to execution for crimes that were unwitnessed and which cannot be replicated in a laboratory.

Do you have enough faith in forensic science to execute people based on theories?

A better question: Do you think the philosphy of evolution can hold up under scrutiny from the standpoint of forensic crime and still retain the name "science?" If science could sue it would sue to have its good name restored from the usurpation it has endured at the hands of those who cloak conjecture in the garb of objective truth.

Who in their right mind would hold the philosophy of evolution on the same level as forensic crime studies and criminal justice as if the proposition of a billion-year-old earth could hold up by virtue of eyewitness testimony?
