    The Evolution Chamber: Piltdown Man

    No it wasn't, objections and concerns were raised from the very start, it was only in England that it had overall acceptance.

    Death being final degrades and insults our humanity

    Unless you are being imprisoned. degraded, tortured and murdered in the knowledge that the same will happen to your family...it really doesn't.

    Evidence for an ancient earth

    So "a millenia" or more. Do you still want to claim only a relative handful of people being alive during that whole period?

    Is there a temple of Science?

    Metaphor is not exclusively linked to poetry.

    How is photography not a tool of Satan?

    Both still followed by Exodus 20:5 "You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,"

    Is there a temple of Science?

    So we can add metaphors to the list of things you don't understand.

    Is there a temple of Science?

    Even if your first proposition were true, which it isn't, no it does not need to be capitalised unless used at the start of a sentence or as part of a proper name (e.g. the "Science Museum" in London).

    Evidence for an ancient earth

    No, they just demand quickly rising mountain ranges, that is the scenario that you proposed. That massive adjustment needs to have taken place between the flood and the first documented evidence of the existence of the features. What that does mean is that Volcanos thousands of feet high need...

    Smoking Gun, Oh Atheists?

    No it doesn't. The Bible is full of occasions when it applies different rules depending on whether the person is one of God's chosen people or not. The rules of Slavery are a prime example.

    Secular Aggression

    Who does that? Science is also very much about what can potentially be observed. The wonder of science is that it pursues what is currently unknown.

    Evidence for an ancient earth

    So a thousand years of massive tectonic activity as whole mountain ranges all over the world rose thousands of feet? Repeated volcanic eruptions and meteor strikes and no one bothers to mention it?

    Can science create a word or an atom of the Universe/s from annihilation?

    Take English, the language that we are using to converse. It has a huge number of words that are recent inventions because they are not present in middle english, the form of the language that Chaucer used. Middle english has enough differences to require specific study to understand. Go back...

    Evidence for an ancient earth

    No, they may be empirically testable because they should leave some traces in our universe when collisions occur (which must also happen).

    Evidence for an ancient earth

    No one claims that there are scientific theories just that they are scientific hypotheses. Multiverses may indeed be testable. That makes the concept falsifiable.

    Double Standards in History of Science?

    I'd fully agree with that. Lavosier's arrest had nothing to do with his science. He was an aristocrat and (by association) a tax collector. Two things that would have put his life in peril even if he had never done any science.
