Challenge to Evolution Deniers
#17
RE: Challenge to Evolution Deniers
Two problems with comparing the process by which a religion is sustained with how a flawed scientific hypothesis might be sustained.

1. Religion does fracture apart, even with the most draconian efforts to put the kibosh on heterodoxy. How many thousands of different brands of Christianity are there again? How many thousands of different translations are there of the perfect and inerrant "Word of God" again? Even in the early centuries of Christianity there were several different kinds, so radically different from each other as to make the distinction between Islam and Trinitarian Christianity look like petty theological hair-splitting.

By contrast, there haven't been any schisms in the theory of evolution apart from the early dispute between the Darwinian and Lamarckian factions.

2. Show me some evolutionary scientists preaching on TV and making money off gullible viewers and I'll agree there's enough money to be made as to justify the resources that would be needed to sustain a global conspiracy of this magnitude for over 100 years.

Thanks Rev. Now I need to clean my monitor off.
