Agreed. So you would advocate, then, discarding evolutionary theory, since so far, it cannot be proven?
No I would not. I did not say that good science meant the scientist had to be able to prove his hypothesis I simply said he must do all he can to try and break his hypothesis. If after he has thrown all he can at his hypothesis, testing it against every available shred of evidence to the contrary it still holds water then its acceptable to propose it as theory. I think that's my main problem with whatI have seen of Creationist scientific theory. Its not a case of being able to prove your theory so much as being unable to disprove it despite great effort to do so.....Being able to find measurable evidence helps of course :P


This has plenty of scientific evidence and links to articles without attempting to sell me the answers in a book.

The Scientific Case For Common Descent

I am still trying to find a link that takes me to something useful. Maybe I am on the wrong page. Could you post a link to on of the scientific articles? I seriously cant find them,...I did listen to that radio thing. Ken Ham......verrrrry cheesy. So cheesy I think he should change his name to Cheddar Ham

It occurred to me that we have hijacked a thread about the Passion of Christ and turned it into a discussion on Creationism :P Maybe we should move this on to a new thread

New Thread. Evolutionary Science -v- Creationism
