You're willfully ignoring the source, which is important. And no, before cling to your genetic fallacy teddy bear, its not a fallacy to to note that these people are arguing from a position that is pre-drawn and in direct contradiction to the article they're analyzing. They are starting from a point that is scientifically laughable and has zero evidence and has never been seriously proposed by any real scientist, AND they make it clear they hold these views on that same website. You want us to just ignore that while they 'analyze' a scientific article? Nope, sorry. Its like listening to an anti-vaxxer criticizing an article that says vaccines are useful. We cant ignore the lens through which these people are operating, and its a lens that's utterly deformed and corrupted through willful ignorance, manipulation of data, unscientific practices, and dogmatism.
And yes, if an atheist were to engage in this kind of huckster-like pseudoscience crap they would be called out just as much.
Ah, so evolution is true because there is no scientific information to suggest otherwise. Oh, and by the way, if you have some scientific information that suggests a problem, it won't be considered because evolution is true. Sound reasoning. You have illustrated the bias that many scientist have--thank you.
YOu really didn't read a word of that, did you. We believe evolution is the best model we have right now because that's where all the current evidence points, and so far it's withstood every challenge brought against it. And if you had evidence that contradicted it, science would gladly address it, because it could reveal an area where we could improve our understanding and possibly change the theory. The only dogmatic party here is the people (like your favorite sites you've been linking) that start with the idea that evolution is false. That is unscientific and dishonest, as is your summation of my points. At least attempt to understand what I'm saying or this conversation is as pointless as the others you've refused to have in this thread.
