We've talked already about the less than 1% of "scientists" that have signed on to Discovery Institutes petition. And that 1% is being very generous as many of those who have signed have significant conflict of interest problems regarding their religion and others can't seriously be labeled "scientists". But even so, how can you have the cajones to claim evolution is "increasingly discredited" given that this 1% hasn't changed in years, and is a low enough percentage to easily be considered the kook fringe of science?
With honesty like yours, I'm glad I rejected Christianity. I would hate for people to lump me in with people who would make claims such as you have.
"increasingly discredited". harrumph. 1% LOL.
Evidently narby you think that a religious person cannot be a scientist? If so, what do you make of my tagline?
Anyone who understands science knows that it is not the number of scientiests that subscribe to a given theory that makes it valid, it’s the ability of a given theory to predict. On that count, from the fossil record, to genetics, to irriducibly complex biological systems, Darwinism is being discredited left and right.
PS Classic victim mentality. I sometimes wonder what people with your mentality will say when they arrive in Hell. Will they try to reassure themselves, "I'm not here, I'm not here, I'm not here..." Or will they play the blame game, "It's not my fault, the Christians made me do it." Perhaps it will be an eternal combination of both.
PS I couldn’t agree more:
Tom Bethell, in his Politically Incorrect Guide to Science, quotes author Michael Crichton as saying that consensus science is an extremely pernicious development that ought to be stopped cold in its tracks. Historically, the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled. Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because youre being had.
