Ok guys I think that there's no point in disscussing this anymore.My reason being that we are both relying on faith.We creationists have faith in the fact that God does exist and that He did create the earth.You evolutionists on the other hand have faith in science and observations of your so called evolution.We can't prove eachother wrong at all,it's impossible!

Originally posted by scottishinnzWell, it does take "faith" to believe that your perceptions mean anything, right? Thus there's no difference between seeing an apple and assuming that you can reach out, grab it and eat it, and believing that the Earth is only 6000 years old. Right? You just pick the faith you like the best.

Originally posted by CreepySlashYes, but scientific faith is better. Scientific methods rely on observation and logic which we use in real life frequently. If youy question scientific methods you must impugn your own experience and reason.

Your faith is an arbitrary belief in a supernatural being.

Can you prove that science can't prove anything?
If so, can you provide proof of the proof of the proof?
Does this sound ridiculous yet?
Extrapolate.

Science can't "prove" anything because there are experiments made to create theorys like evolution.Other experiments show it's wrong,but then others show that it is wrong.That's why I say science can't prove anything.
By the way I'll be going on holiday for 20 days so we can carry on then.Until then:bye!

showing how something is right or wrong based on observational evidence is not a bad description of what science is (although not a complete one). I think I speak for quite a large number of people when I say that science can prove things. Please do continue this when you return as I would very much like to know how you come to belive that science can't prove anything.

believing the results of systematic study by generations of academics does not equate to faith. It is a process of weighing evidence. If you can't see the difference then you should be barred from serving on a jury or from voting.
