[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, but I can explain why you believe what you believe. That doesn't mean that I have to agree. However in this society it is very important to be able to regurgitate information with precision. [/quote]

How do you deal with the large body of physical evidence that supports evolution? Do you not look at the science? Or think it's wrong?[/quote]

I am making an assumption that the OP is asking how I believe that life on earth came to be. If you are asking if I believe that certain animals and insects have evolved and adapted-sure to some degree. If you are asking if I believe that humans came from monkeys-no. If you are asking me if I believe the earth is billions of years old-no, and I won't apologize for it. However when the time comes for "the answer" I will give you the answer you want to hear and move on. It's not a big deal and my job is not to debate for a living.

You and I have different eyes. It would be like explaining the color blue to someone who has always beeen blind. You can try, and some people might have quite a way with words- but the point of reference will always be different. And most of the time, it will prove to be futile exercise.

One thing that I have learned from obtaining a PhD in a science is that just because someone says something is science, that doesn't make it so. Sometimes people apply the term "science" to concepts that do not qualify. Also, most people don't understand as much as they think they do. Like the poster below...are you asking me about the theory of gravity or the law of gravity? Do you know the difference?

Where do you have a PhD in science from?  Bob Jones U?[/quote]

They said "a science," not "science," so I think they mean social sciences.[/quote]

It would still write off like 2/3 of the Social Sciences, as most of them rely heavily on human development (and with that, evolutionary biology & adaptation). I'm still betting it's one of the aforementioned "universities." [/quote]
