When we got to the testing part of the scientific method you rejected my ideas and did not present any of your own.

BECAUSE IT WAS WRONG!
We did not reject your ideas because of some personal opinion about your views, but because your Testing Scheme was incorrect and did not follow proper procedure.

Gabe have you heard the saying, patience is a virtue?

I have never claimed evolution does not happen. You have pulled that from your imagination.

I will respond in my own time, not when you throw a tantrum.

Let me (try) to tell you something pertaining to vaccinations. I am sure being an intelligent person, you would have read all the data sheets pertaining to the vaccinations you had, so I shouldn't be telling you anything you don't already know.

No vaccine comes without an element of risk. Some vaccines carry a greater risk potential to others. These risks range from minor irritation to the full blown disease which the vaccination is intended to vaccinate the person from. Sometimes receiving a vaccination can even prove fatal. For most part the greater majority of people in society go uninhibited of any undue effects.

Some people in life do not need a vaccine for certain diseases, their body already carries the required antibodies within their system, and some people are more prone to being affected by vaccines than others.

Now I hope you are at ease with your vaccinations.

So this mean you accept Evolution, correct? As you do not deny Vaccinations existence, you accept Evolution. And here I thought you denied the fact of Evolution, I apologize Foot, you are a "Evolutionist" just like me.

I never said that I wanted to learn about the ToE. I said that I wanted to follow the scientific method and let it lead us to some facts. When we got to the testing part of the scientific method you rejected my ideas and did not present any of your own.

No, in fact you explicitly said you did NOT want to learn about it. Makes it kind of hard to design an experimental protocol, don't you think?

Further, I presented an entire set of ideas that would serve as a valid tests for your hypothesis, which you ignored. Meanwhile, you submitted only ideas which have nothing to do with it, and are not possible. You have dashed Gabe's faith in the honesty of creationists. Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later.

The faith and belief in evolution is exactly the same as a religious belief.

What evidence do you have for your assertion?

How is it the same as a religious belief? Please explain this to me. What does biology being an exact science have to do with anything? Nothing is an exact science. Science is science. I never claimed that humans have all of the knowledge of the universe, actually we are probably far from it. But what does any of this have to do with the theory of evolution?

Yes, but you have been unwilling to provide convincing evidence -- or actually any evidence -- in support of your notion. Instead, you have been content to merely bleat it again and again. Which leads me to suspect that the notion "faith and blelief in evolution is exactly the same as religious belief" is no more than a religious belief. Consequently, it can be dismissed.

There is a thread pertaining to faith, I suggest you join that if you want answers pertaining to faith of belief.
:rolleyes:

Of which you place great faith in.

What makes you think you will accept it here.

In other words, I will not waste my time.


The biggest waste of time is replying to the circular reasoning and inane comments scattered through this forum by the likes of FP.

footprints I will ask you this once and for all, do you accept the fact of Evolution or not?

As a reference, Vaccinations would be Evolution.

Anything is a waste of time as it pertains to a person of different faiths of beliefs.

The human brain doesn't work any differently in anybody. A rediculous notion to even suggest otherwise.

Our current knowledge of physics lies directly in line with observations of the development of the universe.

What do you propose is different?

I don't propose anything is different? What would give you such a weird association?

I can see possibility in many theories. Albeit I can also see to the places which we cannot observe yet, and know we have no knowledge of it.

Ok, once again footprints, what does biology not being an exact science have to do with anything? If by exact you mean we know absolutely everything about it, than no it's not, but than neither is physics or astronomy. So, what's your point? The question isn't, is it an exact science? But is the science reliable? Just because we don't have all of the knowledge of biology or any other science, doesn't mean we don't know anything about it. In fact we know a lot about biology and how it works. So, if your argument is simply that biology isn't an exact science, than how can you trust any science? Because none of them are exact.

The point is science is only reliable as it pertains to current knowledge and current understanding.

No it doesn't mean we have no knowledge in that field of science, but what it could mean is, the knowledge we have may be right, then again it may be wrong.

We know a lot pertaining to biology as to how things effect other things. Then we have the power of suggestion as to what it supposedly means.

LOL only a person with total blind faith trusts science. People may lean to or accept a current theory or hypothesis, based on perceived probability, but only a person of faith accepts this as absolute knowledge which can never possibly change.

Gabe whether I accept the probability of evolution or not is irrelevant to this topic.

As for me ever being an evolutionist just like you, I would hardly doubt it. I doubt I could ever become as subjective as you, no matter how hard I tried.

as soon as you show me a chimp that can beat me at chess I'll take the THEORY of evolution more seriously


Why would that have anything to do with the Theory of Evolution (ToE)? Do you even know what ToE says? Obviously not, unless you're just deliberately lying. Are you interested in learning?
