Little Rik Wrote:Do you have any evidence that evolution happen only your way and not any other way?I don't have a "way" for evolution to happen. Grab a biology book or any book written on the issue by biologists and you will learn why you are wrong. Or keep asking for evidence when there is a mountain of literature on the subject already.
Little Rik Wrote:This is one of the pillar of atheistic believe based of course on no evidence.Incorrect. I already explained my view of the matter and you did not refute it, you simply made your own claims with no evidence to back them up and pretended that they somehow are more rational than the plainly rational approach I explained (which included my evidence). Like I said, this has been discussed. You can actually just go back a few pages and read it. What is wrong with you?
Little Rik Wrote:My fault.By now you should be aware that I accept your distinction between physical science and anything that is not physical science as you define it. I just think that the latter is made up, and you cannot --by your own explanation-- show otherwise. You may need to work on that faulty memory. It could be from too many blows to the head, or just the ravages of old age. Maybe you need more cholesterol in your diet.
I was reading in the hurry and i didn't realize that you mean physical science.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
