    Why are you afraid to answer?

    Last time I went to Arabia I got the meningitis vaccine.. God told me I would be an idiot NOT to do so.

    Based on uniformitarianism. Based on the laws of nature now are the same as they have always been. An assumption. A belief. A faith.

    Thats the science part.

    Wrong. It is known as a fact.

    A theory-

    A SCIENTIFIC THEORY is based upon facts, laws and hypothesises, is testable and falsifiable, has no evidence that can't be worked into the theory (has never been demonstrated to be false) and due to the overwhelming amount of evidence in support is considered the best hypothesis (all theories are hypothesis but not all hypothesises are theories) available. It is however not considered proven as proof is considered impossible in science. Science is based upon probability not absolute certainty.

    Oh, an observation is a 'fact'? Thats science bs. An observation is nothing but an observation. If science whats to pass that on as a fact, more power to you. I used to call it theory. Its now certified bs.

    And nothing but theory.

    An observation is nothing but an observation. To make it a fact is science bs.

    'Theory' is giving you the benefit of the doubt. Me, Im calling it science bs.

    Problem is, you dont understand that a scientific theory is not the same as a theory in laymens terms.

    No, you don't understand. In fact, you're clearly being willfully ignorant.

    No its not hard. Science has taken what is a 'theory', and by using their own language terms, made it a fact. When in reality it is nothing but a theory.

    Which makes it science bs.

    There is far more evidence for evolution, history, the age of the Earth, and so on than there is for the devinity of Christ.

    There is far more evidence that the Bible has been changed over the years than there is for the divinity of Christ.

    We do not even have any writings from first person witnesses to the risen Christ in the Bible.

    Your Theory that the whole Bible is "the word of God" is not even a Theory. It is a Hypothesis. You need evidence for a hypothesis to make it to a theory.

    Even more silly is that the evidence that does exist suggests that your hypothesis is false.

    I don't know what type of bears were the two. They would come from the two bears.

    It doesn't bother me what you call the Bible. As long as you know that evolution is nothing but a theory.

    If you understood BS, then you would be saying the bible is BS.

    Evolution is 100%, just like it is 100% fact that the Earth orbits around the sun. What may change in the future is the human understanding of why Evolution occurs or why the Earth Orbits the Sun.

    But because human understanding changes, does it change the fact the Evolution does occur or that the Earth orbits the Sun? You really need to let this concept sink in.

    As has been explained by another, a 'fact' in science is not a fact. Its just a theory. Making it bs.
