Quote:Guess what, chuckles? See those little blue numbers in the wiki text? Know what they mean? They're citations, and they link directly to the relevant scientific papers where you can learn more about the background to this stuff. Or do you think that scientists just make up what the hell they like and post it on wikipedia?
A constant puzzle- why do creationists consistently deny science without even attempting to read refutations of their positions? I do this routinely - not that I'm in any wise a creationist, but with other things I'm unsure about. Has my position been refuted? Where have these refutations been published? What are the relevant qualifications of the person doing the refuting?
If my position on nuclear power has been refuted by nuclear engineers publishing in the peer-reviewed journal 'Energy and Environmental Science', I'm likely to sit up and take notice. If my position on nuclear power has been refuted by a self-taught reflexologist in her blog 'Cats N Stuff', not so much.
