Humans are so different from any other creature that the idea we evolved is laughable.
Apart from those people, most have a good sense of right and wrong. No one takes a lion to court for eating an impala.
I do not make the mistake of assuming that I can through a mechanism of observation. Determine the rate of expansion of the universe.Are you seriously suggesting your level of competence of a subject can be compared to an experts if both sides struggle such as making sense of the discrepancies of the Hubble constant value?
This seems to be the motivation behind your post.
There are no apples to apples comparison here; experts are not blindly ignorant.
There are no such 'assumptions' made.I do not make the mistake of assuming that I can through a mechanism of observation. Determine the rate of expansion of the universe.
The constancy of the speed of light is a universal reference (and is thus 'a reference from outside our solar system') because the light clearly originates from multiple, abundant sources beyond our solar system.klutedavid said:I would much prefer observations from reference points outside of our solar system. Outside of our galaxy.
From an external perspective, mankind is but one of the millions of species on this planet.Biologically we are not. We have far more in common with other creatures than we do differences.
If we weren't evolved, why would we share so much in common with other species? Why didn't a creator just make us wholly unique beings?

Sure we are .. For example, I don't see any dogs or cats worshipping statues of their chosen deities(?)From an internal perspective, mankind is uniquely distinct from all other species. The evidence is powerful that mankind is a very special species.
2 Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.What do you mean by: 'knowing'?
Which is why science is so attractive to brilliant minds.Yes, learning but never ultimately knowing.
Ok that's what it means to you .. but its not objectively testable and therefore means nothing when thinking scientifically.2 Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
So was LSD.Which is why science is so attractive to brilliant minds.
Meh .. I can still know a thing or two in the field of science..Which is why science is so attractive to brilliant minds.

Before we even get to that, its a circular definition because it references itself (aka: 'knowledge').What's not objectively testable?
As I said several times you are very good at complaining but continually to miss the mark by focusing on exceptions. Science and evolution are not your enemy, your true enemy is much closer to you.
Who is claiming you don't?Meh .. I can still know a thing or two in the field of science..

I was just putting your explanation 'to the test', with the result being that I ultimately find that I still know a thing or two in science (which admittedly, I also had to learn).Who is claiming you don't?
Ok .. so learning, in that case, still leads to knowledge .. (and therefore, excludes a learner from 'never ultimately knowing' something).Frank Robert said:“The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.”
