Argument #2: Evolution Of Species

[Revelation777]

In 1999, Dr. Stephen Taylor wrote,

The Creation Research Society currently has a membership of 650 scientists, each one holding a Master’s degree or above in a recognized field of science. In a recent article Dr. Russell Humphreys, physicist at Sandia National Laboratories, New Mexico, estimates that there are around 10,000 practicing professional scientists in the USA alone who openly believe in a six-day creation.

And Project Steve just inducted its 1337th Steve to the project, what's your point?

As of 5/6/14
NCSE welcomes Steve #1337

NCSE's "Project Steve" is a tongue-in-cheek parody of a long-standing creationist tradition of amassing lists of "scientists who doubt evolution" or "scientists who dissent from Darwinism."

[snip]

Project Steve pokes fun at this practice and, because "Steves" are only about 1% of scientists, it also makes the point that tens of thousands of scientists support evolution. And it honors the late Stephen Jay Gould, evolutionary biologist, NCSE supporter, and friend.

We'd like to think that after Project Steve, we'll have seen the last of bogus "scientists doubting evolution" lists, but it's probably too much to ask.

There are over twice as many scientists with the name Steve, or variations of it, than there are scientists willing to go on record as 6-day creationists.

If 1,337 Steves represent about 1% of the scientific community, then there are about 133,700 scientist of every name who agree with the Theory of Evolution.

Compared to 650.

Do you want to rethink your argument from popularity now?

And I want to see the facts and figures for how Russell Humphreys estimates his 10,000 figure, but even that is pointless if you're making an argument from popularity because you're still out numbered 13 to 1 if his estimate is accurate.

But I have a better idea: stop trying to prop up your argument with fallacious claims and start producing actual evidence for us to evaluate.

Oh, wait. You don't have any...

My name is Stephen and I am not part of this group. You'll been saying that numbers of people who believe something doesn't count for anything.
