Ask a Scientist

[Veritas21]

I feel that this website is very biased, because it exists only to allow further propoganda of a variety of Christian sects. I am very disturbed by how little most Christians here seem to know about science (based on discussion in the science forums) and I believe an "Ask a Scientist" forum would allow people to be properly educated on what science actually says about things. Virtually everyone I have spoken with is simply wrong in their assumptions or understanding of scientific theorys, and this does not allow for rational discussion. I could not discuss Christian Theology with anyone here if I was incorrectly read or taught the Bible, so how can we expect reasonable discussions about science if people here are not properly educated on it? I would be very interested in moderating it personally if such a position is needed. Thank you!

take it up with Kent Hovind.... or you could have us ask a scientist .. Richard Dawkins...

Well I guess it would be a little biased, it is called Christian Forum. I for one would enjoy having a scientist explaining to me the tech.'s of science, not the final truths, but explain the nuts and bolts of scientific study.

A layman's intro to science maybe for people like me who had to drop out of school at 16 to work, and never had the opportunity to return.

As Garyzenuf said, it is called Christian Forums.

I don't believe there are enough professional working scientists on CF to make this proposal work.

I assure you people, compared to richarddawkins forum (a dedicated Atheist forum), there is no shortage of scientific posting here.
I know of several scientific-minded psters here (myself, Cabal, Deamiter, of course, [serious]mod, and more), but my brief stay at richarddawkins revealed one; maybe two scientifically-literate posters. There was almost no one there to dispute or challenge my claim that Atheism cannot be reconciled with quantum mechanics, since they all but admitted their incompetence of the subject.

Please identify for us the Top 10 Misunderstanding you believe Christians have about scientific theory as it relates to Christian Theology. I would welcoming addressing each with you.

These threads aren't for debate, but you could pm the op and discuss/debate the topic in other forums.
For example:
Physical & Life Sciences

I would suggest that people ask questions in Physical & Life Sciences, and we'll see how that goes.

I suspect that question threads might get derailed by debates, but that's probably inevitable unless responses are restricted to professional scientists.
