Silly statement. We may not spend the time that evolutionist do on the study of evolution and the reason? It actually dosn't take much study and research to see the huge, huge gaps, flaws and lack of proof that it could even start to be a fact. So why would a spiritually wise person with faith in God and his creative powers waist time on such a silly "theory"? That's what evolutionist don't get.....
"So why would a spiritually wise person with faith in God and his creative powers waist time on such a silly "theory"?" you ask.
Because evolution is a more beautiful theory than "It was created, Only go knows how." What if evolution was created by god in all its splendor? The evolution theory doesn't say anything about that. And as it is religion, science cannot prove it nor disprove it. Only that god is not needed once it was arolling. Scary, huh?
So naming it scientific properly as a 'theory', and not just an intelligent guessing, makes full sense.
Go learn what 'theory' means. Go learn what 'evolution' really means. You may actually learn something in the process.
Originally posted by Andrew HamiltonI don't see how I implied they wouldn't be called theorems. The point I was making (lets use an example) is that no one would refer to, say, Goldbach's conjecture as GoldBach's theorem, or the Riemann Hypothesis as the Riemann theorem until proofs have been found (and checked for errors). They clearly wouldn't be theorems were they proven false (the contrapositive statement would be a theorem though - or perhaps a proposition)
If you just google "proven mathematical theorems" you will get a lot of entries.
But if you are right then the term "proven mathematical theorem” would be a logical self-contradiction that would not be used by mathematicians; and yet I found:

“...Since mathematicians regard proven mathematical ...[text shortened]... maticians do continually call mathematical theorems as “theorems” even after they are proven.

A waisted question as I'm not going down that road again. Prove evolution is a fact and I'll listen. Oh wait, I've asked that before to and then you'll come back that I really need to study more then I'll see it. Lol.... You or no one here has got any proof to show, ever.
You don't want to go down the road of not substantiating your own claims?
You made the claim there has been no significant evidence since Darwin proposed his theory 150yrs ago. I'm waiting for you debunking of genetics.
If you fail to do so, which you will, i put it to you you are talking out of your arse. Over to you.

You can play with words all you want, it's still a theory with no more proof then Darwin had when he dreamed up that mess.
I'd like you to explain to me how the scientific field of genetics has not enhanced the evidence for the theory of evolution as you are claiming.
No side-stepping, no avoiding, explain away. If you can't, i'll have to put it down to you lying again.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieThat's a quote from a novel. By a writer who had some pretty esoteric interests. I don't think that his apparent opinion (I haven't gone to the book to check the context of the quote) of science is all that telling really. Particularly as he was trying to create a very 'Big Brother' kind of atmosphere in that story.

Were these not your words to Fabian in another thread?
your position is an act of faith, you doubt but you have no scientific data with which to backup your claim, it therefore remains unsubstantiated and pure conjecture......
Would you care to explain to me why these words are applicable to Fabian but not Galvo?

Originally posted by galveston75You claimed you'd studied evolution all your life, and then claimed you weren't a student of evolution, you can't have it both ways. Which was is it?
Your avoiding my last post to you. Do you understand, sir?
Now get back to the topic and back up your claim, in the words of your illustrious brother Mr Robbie Carrobie -
