Because they may be able to provide insights that are of value to your growth.
You have got to be kidding me. The last thing I need to do is "grow". Unless you can figure out a way for me to grow younger and I do not think that is going to happen. Even I am amazed that I am on here able to do as much as I can. People need to take a good, long hard look at where they are going because they may decide they do not want to go there. Some of us have more bad karma to deal with than others do.

believe they only put on display what enhances current scientific paradigms, as pertains to evolution.
Do you have a problem with evolution or do you have a problem with science? Evolution is only a chapter in the biology book. It gets a lot of attention but so does the chapter on sex. Perhaps it is much ado about nothing. People give Darwin too much credit for what little he contributed. If we took Darwin out of the Science book we would not be missing that much.

They try to incorporate genetics into their theory in an attempt to keep it from sinking. Perhaps we should not allow them to hijack our science with their lame duck theories the way they do.

There are only seven days in a week and 24 hours in a day. So I am limited to that. I know what I know and that is enough for me. Why would I or should I care what you think I do or do not know or what you think I should or should not know? You can live up to your standard for yourself and I will live up to my standard for myself.
You are demonstrating a poor understanding of science in the science section. Your errors are noted and will be challenged.

Speaking of which...

Darwin and his ideas are pretty important. They have not been rejected in the main.
They try to incorporate genetics into their theory in an attempt to keep it from sinking.
Evolution is strong w/o genetics. Genetics clearly demonstrates the central premises of evolution even more strongly.
Perhaps we should not allow them to hijack our science with their lame duck theories the way they do.
Evolution is not a "lame duck theory", and no we are not going to let you take science away from us.

Exodus as a myth is a myth for people who deny the evidence. Go to any museum in the middle east and their storage room is filled with evidence that they would not dare to put on display. Even at one time they tried to destroy the ancient artifacts.

I cannot view your video as it is blocked in my country but the rest of your post is enough for me to note it is built on profound ignorance.

Firstly implying that Middle Eastern museums would suppress or destroy archaeological evidence about the Exodus because they happen to be in Islamic countries, I suggest you broaden your knowledge before making such ignorant statements.
The Quran recognizes the story of Exodus as described in several Surahs (chapters) highlighting key events such as the oppression of the Israelites by the Pharaoh, the birth and early life of Moses, the plagues sent upon Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea, and the eventual escape of the Israelites.
Archaeological discoveries pertaining to the Exodus would add weight to the historicity of the Quran as much as to the Bible.

Secondly archaeological discoveries do not go straight to museums, the discoveries are documented which also includes identification processes such as typology and seriation and dated using techniques involving stratigraphy and radiometric dating.
It therefore becomes a rather pointless exercise for museums to engage in cover ups when information about the discoveries is made public beforehand.

The only myth that is being perpetrated here is your conspiracy theory, in the real world there is not a shred of archaeological evidence which supports the Exodus.

You don't accept the science of genetics?

profound ignorance.
Isn't this against the rules that you agree to when you sign up for this forum.

There are tons and tons and tons of photos on the internet of Isis destroying ancient artifacts.

Not only do these images have nothing with to with your allegation of Muslims destroying evidence of the Exodus but identifying ISIS as representing Islam is like associating conservative Christians with terrorism due to the actions of extremist Christians bombing abortion clinics in your country.

Here is a picture of the Australian Lazlo Toth who is a Catholic and geologist destroying Michelangelo's Pieta in the Vatican with a tool from his trade.

Shall we employ your logic of stereotyping Australian Catholic geologists as being deranged?

What part of the scientific method do you have a problem with?

The scientific method is a systematic approach used by scientists to acquire knowledge and understand the natural world. Here are the key steps involved:

  1. Observation: Scientists make careful observations of natural phenomena or events.
  2. Question: Based on observations, they formulate specific questions about what they’ve seen.
  3. Hypothesis: Scientists propose a testable explanation (hypothesis) for the observed phenomenon.
  4. Experiment: They design experiments or studies to test the hypothesis.
  5. Data Analysis: After conducting experiments, they analyze the data collected.
  6. Conclusion: Based on the data, scientists draw conclusions and refine their understanding.
The scientific method helps minimize biases and ensures replicable research, leading to groundbreaking discoveries in various fields. For instance, it played a crucial role in developing Einstein’s theory of relativity, discovering penicillin, and understanding the structure of DNA

You are making a statement of fact about how ignorant I am. That is fine if you want to be ignored.
Well, you are most certainly ignorant. It is a universal human condition. The number of things already known exceeds many times the number that can be known to any individual. What seems to be in question is the extent of your ignorance in specific fields you have chosen to comment on here. Addressing people's knowledge when they represent themselves as knowledgeable on a topic is quite reasonable in regard to any technical discussion.
For example, if I make an assertion about coastal erosion that can be shown to be in error, but ignore the correction, or double down on my statement, or respond with further statements with no significant relation to my claim, then it would be correct to suggest I was ignorant about coastal erosion. If I repeated this behaviour with flawed remarks on the Davis cycle, or weathering of igneous rocks in humid climates, then one might reasonably suggest I was ignorant of geomorphology.
Thus far some of your statements either show a poor grasp of certain concepts, or are examples of very sloppy writing. I have found it valuable to pay attention when someone tells me I am ignorant. It typically leads me to learn useful information or correct misunderstandings. I recommend that as an approach.
