You know why Christians attack your fairy tale.
Your wiley, deceptive mentors took real science (the stuff we do every day: We did THIS and we got THAT.)
Put the cloak (name) of real science on their theory, put a bra with some padding in it, gave it lipstick, more padding, stood it up and called it "Science".
Carl Sagan did the same thing- puts on a long white shop coat, instead of the black ones the other priests wear- and Wha- Laa he gets instant believableness.

David Berlinksi (pretty high level phd type) last I saw, is not a Christian.
An interview with him on youtube is delightful.
He wrote some books spoofing and exposing the the nonsense of the great and mighty Dawkins.
Of course, David doesn't get free publicity like the religionists pushing your stuff get, but guys like him are out there.

Christians wouldn't need to attack science. Whenever one scientist makes a claim other scientists all over the world go to work to prove that claim is bullshit. If they can't, the claim becomes accepted by mainstream science. If they can, the scientist that made the claim retracts it.

Science. Self correcting, bitches.

I never am left in shock over christian claims. I know by now that they are just cavemen. We know one thing that isn't a theory...THE EARTH IS OLDER THAN SHIT

Quite correct! They lie... with boys.

So where does that leave your post?

And your experience is the totality of all christianity, everywhere on earth, all the time?

Honestly Disc, I don't even know why you would think what you just said is anything close to a refutation.

Quote:The Catholic Church has the entire truth and does not lie.

Except when it comes to condoms and the HIV virus.

Blanket statement, debunked.

It is a refutation of the statement: "Christians attack evolution"

It is a refutation because not all Christians attack evolution. Even if only one in the more than two billion did not attack, that alone would suffice in refuting the sweeping claim that Christians attack evolution.

What he should have said is "Why some Christians attack evolution" or " Why a lot of Christians attack evolution".

I have corrected his sweeping generalization that all Christians attack evolution. Surely he may say well I did not mean to imply all Christians. To which I would respond by saying you should ammend the thread title to be less ambiguous. For surely if I had said something to the effect of Why Atheists attack thus and so, I would more than likely have been accused of lumping all atheists together which is something I should not do because I do not know all atheists.

All christians attack the growth of all people by putting all of their intellectual potential into being blinded by a fear of a flying spaghetti monster. Refute that, deidre stalker.

I can refute that quite easily. I do not put all of my intellectual potential into being blinded by a fear of a flying spaghetti monster.

See how easy that was?

Wow Raul, so Scientists (unlike all other humans) are totally honest, never fudge data and take full responsibility for their errors? Supermen of a sort? And they never heard of Murphy's Law.

Simply put, many Christians deny evolution because it is evidence that the Bible is nonsense.
Evidence. It is an uncomfortable truth for them.

You think that evolution is the product of haphazard guesses and / or fabrications?
But you believe the Bible, a book no one can prove?

You only need proof to validate science but not your "faith?"
I guess I don't understand that line of reasoning. :/

*Sigh.*

For every scientist that fudges their numbers, there are a hundred more honest ones that gain a little more credibility whenever they debunk a fraud. It's good for one's career.

Not to mention, science is best for one's career when it's, you know, applicable in real life and works: those that fudge their numbers or lie don't exactly have a way of monetizing that, do they?

But of course, you don't know any scientists that have lied like that, do you? Nor do you have any reason for the majority of scientists to do so with evolution, right? You're just saying it, because when you have no real evidence to speak of, the only path left to you, when you want to keep your unevidenced opinions safe from interference by facts, is to accuse everyone of being in on a grand conspiracy, no matter how much such a thing works against the interests of the parties involved.
