Darwin’s Predictions (falsified)
Darwin's Predictions ^ | Cornelius G. Hunter, Ph.D

Posted on 01/26/2009 9:13:21 AM PST by GodGunsGuts

Failed expectations are not necessarily a problem for a theory. [1] But what if fundamental predictions are consistently falsified? As we shall see this is the case with Darwin’s theory of evolution...

a successful scientific theory

Piltdown Man

Nebraska Man

Lucy

Archaeoraptor

Etc., etc., etc., etc......

Sorry to have to inform you, but those are data points, not theories. They have long since been dealt with--except Lucy, with which there is nothing wrong.

Creationists got the details on Lucy wrong years ago--something about a knee joint--and have yet to correct their error in spite of being told where and how they are wrong on countless occasions.

Are you saying that a few hoax fossils (except for Lucy, which is genuine as far as I know) invalidate the entire ToE?

I think Darwin’s Predictions hit its peak last year and now we are in the process of devolution... just like global warming instantly has turned into global cooling.

Old Darwin just did not live long enough to model what happens when his theory hit its peak..

Prove evolution is true, if you can, but you still won’t be able to disprove the existence of God. While we’re at it, can you tell us one thing about evolution that has been proved true?

If you knew more about science it perhaps would be useful discussing this with you. Instead you get the short version.

Science is not in the business of proof (see the definitions on my FR home page). Science deals with evidence.

Science makes no attempt to disprove gods. Science deals with the natural world.

There is a reason why they froth and snarl. That's all they've got. And it just goes to show that their commitment is not to science, it is to materialist religion.

No, I'm saying 160 years (since Darwin's “promise”) of innumerable hoaxes makes your case look a little bleak.

[[Give up a successful scientific theory in place of religious belief which relies on revelation instead of evidence?]]

your fairytale visions of what ID is has NO place in serious scientific discussions Coyoteman, and exposes the fact that you aren’t serious about discussing anyhting that exposes the myth you hold so dear, and as such, your reputation as a ‘serious scientist’ has really suffered here on FR. ID in NO way resembles your ardent agendist accusaitons, and you know that- but have persisted to make htis false accusaiton for many years here on FR- and you ownder why noone takes you seriously? Your only counter argument to articles posted that poke holes in Darwininian hypothesis is to say “ID is a religion”? Wow! Color me shocked!

How does the existence of a handful of hoaxes rebut the TOE?

ID is a religion

Evolution is a religion. It contains all the necessary tenants.

Evolutionist simply don't have balls enough to admit it.

Fine!!! Now where exactly is there any evidence for a HOT steamy pot of primordial pond scum. IF it ever existed there would be evidence, which there is NONE. Please don't think the common attempt to ignore the foundation upon which evolution is designed has never been attempted or searched for. IF it ever existed there would be ample evidence, as is with the mounds of dino fossils.

Oral (Gimmie 8 millon dollars or God will kill me) Roberts

Wyatt Archaeological Research (These guys claim to have found Noah's Ark, Sodom & Gomorrah, The Ark of the The Covenant and more!! Send $$ for the tour)

The Inca Stones

Acambaro dinosaurs

Perjury at Dover

Darwin's deathbed confession

NASA finds the missing day of Joshua

Apostolic Canons

Greater Ministries Scandal

Health Ministry / Biblical medical plan

I'm saying 2000 years (since Jesus' “promise”) of innumerable hoaxes makes your case look a little bleak.

Even worse, once those "Darwin" hoaxes were found out they were discarded, meanwhile those Christian hoaxes still go on and on today.

How does a thousand times a thousand hoaxes, distortions and lies make a "scientific" theory?

It is based upon the “logic” that because some American currency has been counterfeited and found to be fake, you should throw out all your American currency.

Darwin's book was The Origin of Species, not The Origin of Life. You seem to confuse the two for some reason.

Citations?

Remember. You only posted a small number of paleontological hoaxes. And even one example that wasn’t a hoax or misidentification.

Right. I am confusing nothing, darwin species claims stems out of some illusion 'hot' steamy pot of primordial pond scum. Why do you hide from that?

...in favor of new hoaxes.

{And your attempt to shift the focus is pathetic.}
