And don't tell me that I'm going to do poorly in my biology classes, I have done very well and I still have a 4.0 science GPA. I know you won't believe that (because you don't want it to be true), but it's true.
So I'm curious: if a fact is not something that has been borne out by observations across multiple fields of study over a span of time of 150 years or more, surmounting every new discovery and new technology capable of testing it, not to mention intense scrutiny from ideologues with a bias against it, then what exactly is a fact to you? What could possibly qualify, if evolution does not?
As always:
Scepticism against science when it conflicts with religous book: Infinite
Scepticism against religious book: Zero
He still thinks ID is a better explanation even though it's unfalsifiable and therefor not science, and evolution is falsifiable and has mountains of evidence? If that's not a closed mind, I don't know what is.
Smart theists accept evolution but then convince themselves that an intelligence was still behind the whole thing, somehow. Which may be the case; there's just no reason to think that it is the case. But refusing to accept the fact of evolution at all...
