Everything you say is fine

No its not fine, its the Truth

Either truth is absolute or NOTHING is true

EVO Theory is taught why not present another "theory" and let people make up their own minds

And what makes you think all scientific phenomena can or will be solved?

For every scientific phenomena that you can point to as being solved I can point to another that has not been solved by all the brilliant scientific minds combined

BTW archaeology is till trying to keep up with the Biblical facts. Finding artifacts and cities that science claimed didn't exist until digs proved them wrong.

Fine... then let's stop studying ALL natural pheneomena because in the end, it is all God's will is it not? I mean... what is the point in studying ANY science if in the end, that is the answer? Why bother studying the weather, or physics. Heck let's stop studying new medicines because if you are sick, God must want you to be sick so quit trying to subvert His will.

Did you know that Ben Franklin was chastised by the clergy for creating the lightning rod because of that very reason? If your house or barn was hit by lightning then YOU must have done something to deserve it. Got one on your house or barn? Take it down NOW! That is what the clergy said then and if it was right then... its right now

That's right... let's teach ID... it is equal to Evolution because it explains the evidence we see in the fossil record. Oh wait, all that so called "fossil evidence" has to go right? I mean... contradicts the Bible and as you say, there can only be one truth, right?? ID'ers say the Earth isn't much more than 6000 years old so guess what? That radiometric dating technique scientists use; we gotta get rid of that. Let's teach another theory that also has no proof that proves radiometric dating is wrong. It is a "subversive technology" that teaches people to believe that the Earth and life is older then the Bible says it is and that just can't be, right? Because there only is one truth... and you know it... and it cannot be any other way than your way... no matter what the evidence says. IF there is contrary evidence... that was planted by an atheist scientist. You are so right those devil worshipers are just the most subversive things. But we will show them, we will toss those so called fossils into a pit and we will nuke em. Heck we will make the burning of the Alexandria library look like a fire cracker.

Now all we gotta do is make some human footprints and put them alongside some dinosaur tracks and there is the proof we need. What? It's been done before and everyone laughed at it. Heck just do it again we got 58% of the people on our side and we need to bump that up. Cause remember, there is only one truth and that is our truth no matter what those pointed tailed devil worshipping scientists say.

And what makes you think all scientific phenomena can or will be solved?

Who said it can? But at least it tries to find the truth right? The attempt for the truth is sometimes more important than finding it. The journey is more important than reaching the destination.

BTW archaeology is till trying to keep up with the Biblical facts. Finding artifacts and cities that science claimed didn't exist until digs proved them wrong.

Sure they thought a lot of those places were just legends. They were wrong. Wow... I guess that means ALL science is wrong. I am GLAD you set me straight on this.

There are no alternative explanations for species diversity that meet the stringent requirements to be termed "theory". As such, there is no "another" theory to teach.

For every scientific phenomena that you can point to as being solved I can point to another that has not been solved by all the brilliant scientific minds combined

Please explain how this relates to evolution.

I was unaware that "science" made such claims. Do you have references?

That's silly. You're essentially saying, unless you accept MY theory of truth, you can make no truth claims period.

Here, for instance, is a different truth theory: Truth is correspondence with reality. A claim is true if it correspondents to reality, and false if does not.

Under this theory truth is RELATIVE rather than absolute. But since it is relative to reality, and we are able to consult reality by tests and observation, truth claims are testable. This is far superior to your theory, where truth is "absolute" and therefore not testable.

That's great! What theory did you have in mind? (As far as I know, there is no opposing theory in this field. Did you discover something new?)

Hint: ID and creationism are not theories, but religious beliefs.


[Like your tagline.]
