Right. Dismiss the results because they don’t support your point of view. Disingenuous.

There is no scientific *reality*. Science is built on shifting sands, constantly changing as new data comes in. It’s not reliable. It’s not about truth. It’s about the best current explanation for the data which might not be the best tomorrow, or next week, or next year.

It’s about the best current explanation for the data which might not be the best tomorrow, or next week, or next year.

And this "explanation" is always based on some base assumptions - ie, no Creator, billions of years, evolution.

It's funny that the arguers can't see their circular reasoning. The assumptions they build into their observations are the conclusions they are trying to prove.
