@Briancrc,
Quote:I don't know what this is. Maybe you feel that you are engaging in a spiritual battle. Which, IMHO, is wasted energy. This is not an argument about scientific evidence. Even your position says as much. To get to the original question of the thread, people's denial of evolution is typically (not always) informed by christian conservatism. There is a perception that something big could be lost if evolution is correct (e.g., salvation, seeing loved ones after death, etc.).
For scientists, there is no denial. The broad-picture pattern and process of evolution is rock solid. When there are disagreements about details, then those who feel that their world view has been threatened by evolution seize upon the arguments made and try to convince non-scientists that there is no evidence for evolution. With respect to the core principles of evolution this is nothing more than irrelevant noise.
Just an Ad Hominem, mate.
First of all, if you had read my postings, you would know this has nothing to with spirituality or christianity for me. But I do understand you have to think that in order to keep your faith in tact.
For me it is only, about the evidence. or better the lack of evidence.
Now, why don't you bring evidence to the table?
You really don't
You are giving me your conviction that scientists are saying (macro)evolution is right.
But you are not giving any evidence for it! Only the EMPTY WORDS of some scientists.
Now, mate, get the evidence!
