My question is when are those who believe in evolution going to read the scientific findings of those who disagree with evolution?

For 50 years I been force fed every item of proof that evolutionists have to back up their theory. Yet I have yet to meet one evolutionist who will admit he reads the scientific proof behind the debunking of evolution.

I do not just point to the scientists I agree with, I read their papers and watch their videos, just as I have with those who have tried all my life to buy into the evolution theories.

Who here can tell me they read the whole articles and the evidence?

Name one. Your Unicorn Carving is not a finding.

Because there is none. The idea that there are alternative explanations for a given artifact or finding is a given in science. It does NOT undermine TToE. The fact that Plitdown Man was a hoax doesn’t in one tine way undermine TToE. Find me a single scientifically proven, peer-reviewed published finding that undermines TToE and I will throw my lot in with you (once I understand your point).

Good.

>>Who here can tell me they read the whole articles and the evidence?

I read until I come across blatant apologetics or flat-out misunderstanding or purposeful misstatement of facts. Then I stop, as I did with the OP.

(still waiting on that list of names and quals btw)

I will read that scientific proof - can you provide a link?

My question is — why should I care? What difference does it make? Personally, I think it is a trivial debate which has a tendency to draw in and distract well-meaning Christians.

Christians often seem to think they are required to have a neat-and-tidy answer to every one of life’s unanswerable questions. But, honestly, it is okay to simply say “I don’t know”, and move on to more important matters. The truth is — we DON’T know. And, they don’t know either. I’ve never understood getting in knock-down-drag-out debates over unanswerable questions.

Read whatever interests you, certainly. But, getting in pissing matches over “evolution vs. intelligent design” isn’t particularly useful. The answer may very well be “both”.
