I would say most of the debates I've had on this forum had nothing to do with religion, and the funny thing is, you atheist hold on to a losing side of an argument like no other, despite my side of the argument being easily proven to be true.
I think by now you know better that to ask for evidence of the above statement, so I'll leave it at that.
Also "scientific theory" as you put it has never been defined as scientific fact, must I point out "scientific theories" that were debunked?
No, scientific theories are not "debunked" in the sense that you mean. They are continuously subject to change, re-evaluation, and reconfiguration in light of new facts and evidence derived from the very same painstaking scientific method used to establish the theory in the first place. A truly rigorous, honest, and thorough scientist will challenge his hypothesis in as many ways as he can think of. You have no idea what science is, or what it does, but instead of being open to actually learning something new, you bury your head in the ass crack of your bible, plug your ears, and sing "la la la, I'm not listening!"

You know what else "are continuously subject to change, re-evaluation, and reconfiguration in light of new facts and evidence"? Beliefs, opinions and speculations. What is not subject to change under any circumstance is truth.
What's true will ALWAYS remain true, any new evidence will corroborate the truth, not change it.

Quote:Facts and theories are two different things. In the scientific method, there is a clear distinction between facts, which can be observed and/or measured, and theories, which are scientists’ explanations and interpretations of the facts.
Also if I may quote your earlier post.

My whole point is that scientific FACT corroborates what the bible has been saying, it doesn't disprove it, the bible told you time was relative long before the theory of relativity.
Evolution is a fact in so much that each creature evolves after its "kind", cats evolve from cats and dogs from dogs, But the idea that we all evolved from some primordial soup is pure conjecture.

If it said some other stupid story instead of Adam and Eve, such people would believe that instead. Because it's in the dogmatically esteemed book.
It's the perfect antidote to learning.
You know what the biggest obstacle to learning is? Close mindedness.
It's always one side or the other with fanatics (read fanbois), whether they be religious or atheist. One can benefit from both science AND spirituality.
