Transitional Fossil being a fossil remains of a creature which shares traits with older and newer fossils with a pattern of variation through the ages.
Quote:I would say you're right IF it weren't for the fact that this isn't a oops mistake made move on learn from it. It is fraud that happens repeatedly. Scientists are obviously not learning from mistakes if they keep falling for these frauds.
However, it is a rare occurrence, more damning of people whether scientific or religious than of the scientific method. It is the scientific method that exposed the flaws in the first place.
For instance, Christians can commit evil acts, therefore Christianity is evil would be a similar exaggeration which is not necessarily true.
Quote:What in the bible is proven to be lies?
In order to do so, it is easier to compile a list of biblical truths;
List of Scientifically Proven Biblical Truths
1. ....
Okay, I'm done.
How about floods, plagues, miracles, contradictions. How about curing people by killing birds? How about making mountains move? Flat earth? STATIONARY earth?
By your own argument, things like a stationary earth and flat earth were accepted for hundreds of years, so who are we to say they are wrong.
Nope. You had to reinterpret to fit in with the inescapable facts.
Quote:The shroud of Turin is to be determined in light of recent evidence of the carbon dating sample taken determined to be a medevil patch. The others are frauds but don't prove the bible wrong. I admitt church can be corrupt, can you not admitt the same for scientists?
I absolutely can. People are people, and some people have motivations contrary to the truth. This is the same for religion as for science. However science has a method to catch them in their lies.
Wheres religions method to catch lies? Your frauds went for hundreds of years in some cases.. and it had to call on science to prove it.
You aren't looking for truth, you want to assert it. Searching for truth, and exposing lies... thats the scientific method.
Quote:Evidence of conjecture, not facts.
To a certain extent yes, conjecture is thought to be true and has not been disproven.
Biology, chemistry, geology, anthropology conjecture all indicating with separate evidences that the theory is accurate. It MIGHT be wrong, but its not looking that way so far.
You pick tiny bits out of all them, which is fine, but that does not excuse the weight of it all.
What do you have?
Bible.
I know where my money is going.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
