The small handful of “biologists” that disagree are not scientists. Statistics is the only pure science, and it is infallible with large samples. No real scientist challenges statistical analysis ever.

But biologists that agree with you that evolution doesn't exist *are* scientists? Interesting concept. The study of biology is only true when your interpretation of the Bible trumps it. So why study biology or medicine at all? Just read the Bible. Everything "true" is in there, and anything not there is false. The Bible doesn't describe evolution in Genesis 1 and 2, so it is false.

Statistics is the only pure science, and it is infallible with large samples. No real scientist challenges statistical analysis ever.

Someone once said "there are lies, damn lies, and statistics". Statistics can be useful, but when you put garbage in, you get garbage out. The numbers you quoted in the earlier post is a great example of that.
