You lying sack of dingo kidneys. Here's how Post # 398 started out: the past is not a readily observable phenomenon. Biology and geology have large branches devoted to history. These cannot ever produce an absolute, complete and final truth.

You can call me names but you just proved my point -- again.

What you started with I addressed. And I went on to address the second portion of your post in the context of truth --- which you have danced around completely --- and I addressed quite thoroughly.

But since you are an evolutionist and admit that you are not in search of the truth through scientific experimentation and inquiry, that says it all right there. I need no additional proof.

I'll just let your words bear witness against yourself.

I'm not dancing. Science isn't about truth. It's about useful and productive ideas.

But while science cannot prove the truth of its statements, it can demonstrate that some statements are reliable, and some statements are false. And that is a useful thing.
