You got me there. I’m an engineer. That means I evaluate data and make things work NOW. I don’t look at a jawbone and make exaggerated theories about how some person lived 10,000 years ago.

If this is all so complicated that only a PhD in anthropology can even discuss it, then why are you here? Let us have our uneducated fantasies, while you sit in your ivory tower smirking at us. You act like you are here to educate us, but when asked for specifics you insult us for not spending a lifetime learning a relatively useless science.

It doesn’t hurt you that we are ignorant, and it doesn’t hurt us either. Belief in evolution has absolutely no effect on anyone’s life, but a belief in God does.

But somewhere, someone does. Would you have someone come to you and say that F=ma is NOT the proper application for your vocation?

I just tire of people making blanket statements about their ignorance and then asking me to rebut them. If you don’t understand science, nor can define a Scientific Theory, as in the case of the OP, then you should not be posting these threads. I am sure you are capable of deriving the force of a collision given the speed, velocity and relative angles of the objects. I am sure I am not. That is why I don’t post “why Engineering doesn’t work” threads.

Are you willing to “educate” people with little or no knowledge of vector addition on the item I just posted?

I believe in God. I believe that Christ was His Son, sent down to die for my sins. I believe God gave us tools to understand the Universe. Those tools only work in a materialistic Universe.
