I am not dismissing science. I am dismissing evolution. You confuse the two and make the two sound inseparable. You could still have science without evolution. And, strangely, you could have evolution without science.

Yes, you could have science without evolution.

But there would NOT be evolution without the scientific process.

The scientific evidence existed first, so without science, and the scientific evidence that came from it, there would be NO theory of evolution.

So no, without science, there would be no Theory of Evolution.

It is possible that some theory will replace evolution as currently understood, but biblical inerrancy plus literalism stands in opposition to most of science, and without science, evolution would never have been proposed.

You could still have science without evolution.

Tis true, I suppose, but I prefer to accept science circa 2003, not 1700 or so. By discounting evolution, you are thereby directly discounting: geology, paleontology, genetics, limnology, and all arms of biology including but not confined to botany, morphology, anatomy, zoology, ichthyology, herpetology, ornithology, etc.

You are also, by the way, also discounting major tenets of agronomy, forestry, agriculture, astronomy, cosmology, archeology, oceanography, and medical science.

You are also ignoring reems of scientific journals, papers, books, studies, websites, experiments. The foods you eat are predicated on evolutionary study. The car you drive runs on fossil fuels which are found using loosely related means. The cotton in your shirts is farmed using evolutionary studies of boll weevils. The medicines you take, the grass you cut, and in the near future, perhaps even the OS you use, can all be tied into evolutionary ideas, practices, studies, and proofs.

So yes, you can ignore it all you want, but unless you want to live like the caveman you refuse to believe even existed, you have a few things to learn.
