The scientific reasoning that explains how an machine weighing hundred of tons can go hurtling through the air thousands of feet off the ground is known as the theory of flight. Shall we stop teaching that since, by your definition, it is a lie to teach a theory as fact?
Letmarch, you are correct, don’t mind the superscilious non-argument.
“The scientific reasoning that explains how an machine weighing hundred of tons”
It’s also observable, a requirement for ALL true (not theory) science. Evolution isn’t science, even remotely. And what you’re talking about are actually scientific LAWS, not theories. Scientific laws are theories that have been tested over and over and have, as of yet, proven irrefutable, with the qualifier that they can be disproven at any time (also a foundational principle of science). Evolution has ZERO observable evidence. Natural selection, sure, but that’s not evolution. Changing from one species to another species NEVER has ever happened. It’s not possible. Even domesticated animals are the same species, by definition of species, as wildy different their traits may be. Our scientific nomenclature has altered over and over to give credence to what we wish do currently define as “species” meaning through DNA rather than other traits, but species are those organisms that will naturally breed and produce nonsterile offspring.
And yes, it IS a LIE to teach theory as fact. It is only a theory, and that’s the only way that science can ever improve, is by not accepting “concensus” and “settled science” just because someone says so. Or people would still believe in alchemy, homunculi and succubi.
Your reasoning is faulty. There are always two parts to a theory, the theory itself and the proof of the theory. As an example the theory of gravity is proved by the simple expedient of dropping something and watching it fall, when this happens the theory of gravity becomes fact. When the first aircraft, not the Wright flyer but the many non-powered gliders before that, actually used it's wings to create lift and soared through the air, it proved the theory of flight and it became a fact, one that is proved every day of our lives. Neither evolution or creationism have been proved, they are both theories and one is as valid to be taught in a class as another. Evolution has many liars claims in an attempt to prove it but so far they are all failures. Creationism has also not been proved.
Both theories have their champions that claim they are facts, evolutionists lie about this all the time as if stating it is a proven fact actually makes it so. Creationist also claim that their theory is a fact, but claiming it does not make it so.
One major difference between the two theories is that the fossil record actually disproves evolution(as defined by Darwin)where as there is nothing that disproves Creationism.
No further discussion of this subject is desired.
