Quote by: chaplainson  I would just like to point out that almost all of Science is theory and not fact. I.E. Gravity is a law, why, becasue we can test it in the present with current technology and don't have to rely on anctient evidence.
However evolution and the origons of life are all theories, they are ideas. Evolution is a theory just as much as Creationism is. My problem is that many scientists nowadays are presenting evolution as a fact, but cannot give real proof to show it. We can look at fossils and ASUME that they evolved, but you can't in any way prove it. Just like we cannot prove that God/god/whatever created the world and created life, you cannot prove that evolution is true.
If people would just be a little more open minded about it, it would all be ok, but scientists refuse to teach creationism or intelligent design or whatever to students, saying it's not science, well why the heck not, it has it's mechanisms just like evolution does, and it's just a theory, not a fact, just like evolution. It has scientific evidence through items like irreducible complexity, just as evolution does.
So we can debate which idea is right, just like we can debate whose god is God, but we cannot use only, pure scientific evidence to prove either idea, something must be believed in or taken by faith, whether it is God in creationism or belief in the unproven system of evolution, something must be taken by faith. |
