Most of the hoaxes of evolution are knee slappers. Piltdown Man, Kansas Man, Encino Man, Archaeoraptor, on and on. And who cares? There's one born every minute, right?

But these people were not suckers. Suckers implies a dumb decision to believe a huckster. These people were abused by so-called "scientists" desperate to prove that Darwinian evolution could be real.

Interesting but it does point out the fundamental difference between science and just about every other human endeavor. It is self-correcting. Hoaxes are eventually exposed and science gets closer and closer to the truth. Politics, religion, art, none of those are self-correcting and that explains why they generally don't improve and are essentially stagnant.

True, but we have to be careful that it stays that way.

When we have politicians, artists, and religionists insisting that questioning their particular stance on a scientific question is "attacking science," then science may be on the way to the same stagnation as those other fields.

It's always concerning when Disco'tute groupies use silly YouTube videos to promote charlatans.

Yes.

Anyone can question anything in this country but there is a difference between 'attacking' science and advancing science. Non-scientists, questioning a long accepted theory, such as evolution, without offering evidence or alternative scientific theories do nothing to advance science and are therefore seen to be attacking. Whatever the Bible is, it is not a valid scientific source.
 
Yes.

How do you feel about people who believe that the apparant design in life on Earth indicates a designer?

Are they attacking science?
 
Chimps do not evolve into apes and apes do not evolve into humans. Turtles do not evolve into birds etc. There is evolution within a distinct species.

Chimps ARE apes. Humans ARE apes. The ancestors of turtles did evolve into both turtles and birds. Glad I could clear that up for you.

Science refuses to ever consider the supernatural as the cause of anything. . Everyone knows you see a painting, their had to be a creator, iow, nature could never create that on its own. . But you see an eyeball or a brain, and they try to tell us that could have come from proteins or other chemicals sitting in a lump of coal billions of years ago. All by chance, a trillion remarkable enhancements later, we have eyeball “miracles,” (if you will?). . But no solid reason to surmise an Intelligent Designer was necessary. --- Sure. ---- When are they going to “self correct” that one? . Seems the major body of science and education sure likes to mock I.D.

Yeah. Thou shalt not steal, kill, lie, etc. is pretty stagnant (sadly). :(

The Bible is the touchstone of necessary truths. And while not a science book it states that we are the product of purposeful design. Believers hold this as truth, without regard to science or the scientific alternative.

By definition, science is the study of the natural world. Many have tried to study the supernatural but have failed.

Everyone knows you see a painting, their had to be a creator, iow, nature could never create that on its own. .
Right, because nature could never create something as intricate as a snowflake.

We can see all the stages that led to our eyes in primitive creatures alive today.

When ID comes forward with evidence that stands up to peer review, they will be taken seriously. Until then they are like children yelling 'is not!'.

Nothing wrong with faith unless you want to learn something new.

Not science now. Now we must "trust the science". Now, we cannot "question the science"
