. The only ones who think otherwise aren't scientists, but idealogues
just not in real life---
As we saw that again in the case of the fraudulent horse series
"I admit that
an awful lot of that [imaginary stories] has gotten into the
textbooks as though it were true. For instance,
the most famous example still on exhibit downstairs [in the American Museum of Natural History] is the exhibit on
horse evolution prepared perhaps 50 years ago. That has been
presented as literal truth in textbook after textbook. Now I think that
that is lamentable ..."
Niles Eldredge, as quoted in Luther D Sunderland, Darwin's Enigma: Fossils and Other Problems, 4th ed. 1988, pg 78.
"The
uniform continuous transformation of Hyracotherium into Equus, so dear to the hearts of generations of textbook writers,
never happened in nature."—G.G. Simpson, Life of the Past (1953), p. 119.
============================
The sorts of things world class scientists were not saying about gravity and thermodynamics in the 1980's and 1950's
Here is a fact already in evidence.
After the bold equivocation between junk-science evolutionism and actual science like the law of Gravity and the laws of thermodynamics - I pointed out the blunder - showing that in real life you don't see world class scientists saying the sorts of thing about gravity as evolutionism's own atheist scientists say about evolutionism.
============
Collin Patterson (atheist and diehard evolutionist to the day he died in 1998) - Paleontologist British Museum of Natural history speaking at the
American Museum of Natural History in 1981 - said:
Patterson - quotes Gillespie's arguing that Christians
"'...holding creationist ideas could plead ignorance of the means and affirm only the fact,'"
Patterson countered, "That seems to summarize the feeling I get in talking to evolutionists today. They plead ignorance of the means of transformation, but affirm only the fact (saying):'Yes it has...we know it has taken place.'"
"...Now I think that
many people in this room would acknowledge that during the last few years, if you had thought about it at all,
you've experienced a shift from evolution as knowledge to evolution as faith. I know that's true of me, and I think it's true of a good many of you in here...
"...,
Evolution not only conveys no knowledge, but seems somehow
to convey anti-knowledge , apparent knowledge which is actually harmful to systematics..."
========================
Now on this thread we are being "told" to equivocate between blind faith evolutionism - and ... 'Gravity' and 'the law of thermodynamics'. AS IF our top scientists today ALSO come out saying "the law of thermodynamics conveys no knowledge.. in fact it seems somehow to convey anti-knowledge. apparent knowledge that is harmful to physics".
AS IF our top scientists today would say "Gravity --and the gravitational constant so near and dear to science text books today - NEVER HAPPENED in nature".
REALLY?? That is what you see happening???
========================================================
Thus the perfect contrast was given - exposing that sort of "equivocation" as was attempted trying to get evolutionism in the "legit box" of science - that has Gravity and Thermodynamics in it
