And what is your familiarity with the “other side” of this controversy?

Abject ignorance and inane misconceptions is all I usually see from the creationist side - like the idea that evolution will produce an “uber man” or the historic ignorance that Communism embraced Darwinian evolution rather than rejecting it as being too capitalistic.

I am sure you may actually be obtuse enough to believe that biologists, geologists, paleontologists (etc, etc, etc, ad nauseum) - only believe what they believe because they have been “brainwashed”. That just shows how little you understand about science and the scientific method.

I don't accept the theory of Darwin because I have been “brainwashed”, I accept it because it is a useful model that helps to explain and predict facts.

Science is useful in explaining and predicting the natural world.

Creationism is useless.

Doubling down on the condescension I see.

“It’s all you have”, I suppose. Like I said. DISMISSED.
