[QUOTE="rainycity, post: 53516396, member: 246231"] Science and any assumptions made are made within the boundaries of reason and with what is permitted by the evidence at hand. That is not equivalent in any way to faith. Science is about reaching the best answer with the data available; the data available pretty much unanimously supports the fact of evolution. Any slight arguments that might exist in the scientific community are within very specific details that do not refute the fact of evolution, and you pretending they do is nothing short of intellectually dishonesty. It's tantamount to suggesting that because historians might not agree how many troops died in X battle (e.g. 10,000 or 11,000) then the battle didn't happen. That's inane. All the silly buzz words you can throw (e.g. "corporately owned", "Big Thinkers"...post #12 'Evolution' thread) aren't going to change the fact Science is the most rigorous, most tested, most productive, most self-correcting methodology known to man. Those "corporately owned" scientists not only pass on numerous opportunities to get rich by working in private non-Academic industries, but are peer-reviewed by "rival" scientists that would like be able to refute their scientific research. It's essentially survival of the fittest in the realm of experiments and idea, which is one of the many reasons why Science works so well. The theory of evolution is just as certain as the Laws of thermodynamics, Newton's second law, and Gravitation. How certain is that? Not absolutely necessarily 100% true, and may possibly have flaws. By your logic, all of these theories are superstition. If you care about truth at all, you'll properly consider the theory of evolution. [/QUOTE]
