My Certification Challenge

[AV1611VET]

As there is no such thing as a "scientifically certified" anything, the answer would have to be no.

Okay ... thank you.

 

[AV1611VET]

Science disproves or provides evidence for. It doesn't certify. Certifying comes with reliability and consistency, so the scientific process itself is certified, but it itself doesn't certify. Redoing experiments over and over again and the data being consistent might certify the experimental process, but not really the data. It would be a stretch of definition to say that science certifies.

Thank you!

Simple question:Is creationism a scientifically certified myth?
And I said "myth" ... not lie ... not legend ... not story ... not [whatever] ... myth.
Here's an example for emphasis:

Scientist One: He had to study creationism and other legends.
Scientist Two: Creationism isn't a legend, it's a myth.
Scientist One: Whatever.
Scientist Two: No, not "whatever" ... myth.

So a simple YES or NO.

Is creationism a scientifically certified myth?

(And if you have to ask for clarification, I'm going to assume NO, since the clarification would come with the certification.)

Have you stopped beating your wife yet? Yes or no?

Have you stopped beating your wife yet? Yes or no?

What's wrong? you don't like YES or NO questions?

 

[TLK Valentine]

What's wrong? you don't like YES or NO questions?

Didn't you already concede that the question is meaningless because there's no such thing as "scientifically certified"?

What's this then?

Political scientist Sami Torssonen argues that animal welfare has itself been commodified since the 1990s because of public concern for animals. "Scientifically-certified welfare products," which Torssonen calls "sellfare," are "producible and salable at various points in the commodity chain," subject to competition like any other commodity.

So what's the criteria for being "scientifically certified"?

Beats me.

My sister has always told me I was "certified."

Not scientifically though.

Simple question:
Is creationism a scientifically certified myth?

Yes. Something from nothing is impossible.
Wait.....that's the big bang theory.



Never mind.

I'll repeat my answer since AV wants to bring this thread back (Lord only knows why): you can't scientifically certify a myth.

 

[lesliedellow]

Myth, as theologians use the term, is a story which is told, not for the purposes of relating history, but for the purpose of relating some theological truth(s); such as the falleness of man.

I'll repeat my answer since AV wants to bring this thread back (Lord only knows why): you can't scientifically certify a myth.

Then why call it a myth?

 

[VirOptimus]

Then why call it a myth?

Because it is one.

 

[AV1611VET]

Because it is one.

Then show its certification.

I can show why I believe what I believe.

Can you do the same?
