Then there are those who cannot separate their literal reading of the one book with interpretations of observable and measurable phenomena. Science rarely claims absolute certainty, because all of its theories and laws are replaceable when disproved or in light of a better explanation. Creationism is based on absolute certainty first (read dogmatic belief).<BR/><BR/>As to the creation of the universe, life on earth, etc; these are separate questions separate from evolutionary theory. There are some hypothesis and ideas attempting to answer those questions, and in most of those cases the people working to find an answer are not afraid to say "We don't know at this time." Can you say the same? Can ID proponents, creationists, radical fundamentalists acknowledge this very human lack of absolute knowledge, or claim with superhuman absolutism that one book has all the answers in this universe?Igorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04561482982374328820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6802109362344250457.post-81414381286980877192008-06-04T08:51:00.000-05:002008-06-04T08:51:00.000-05:00Gumbythecat?

It's only the hardcore fundies that have managed to keep deluding themselves into believing AiG claptrap. It may seem like there are a vast number of these nincompoops but that's simply because they shout so loud. Making a lot of noise is the typical tactic of the extremist, and an extremist by definition is in the small minoroty. As Beaj said in his/her above comment, the internet will play a large role in the eventual extinction of the creationists. There's just too much knowledge, easily and freely accessible, to permit the creationists to get away with their foolishness forever. Creationism, in its attempt to appear rational, has morphed into ID. What can ID morph into now that it has been debunked? The cycle can only be repeated a limited number of times.<BR/><BR/>Here's my own take on the AiG Statement of Faith:<BR/><BR/>http://gumbythecat.blogspot.com/2008/03/image-from-richarddawkins.htmlGumbyTheCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02696861259954817600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6802109362344250457.post-79713885636448369572008-06-01T07:25:00.000-05:002008-06-01T07:25:00.000-05:00I read your assumption.

In a vacuum can something be created if nothing enters it? Where would evolution begin? How does nothing evolve into something? <BR/>Everything must have a beginning to begin. <BR/>With the big bang theory, where did the explosive matter causing the explosion of "evolution" come from?<BR/>These are questions I have as of yet to find correct in the complete scientific analysis.<BR/>And then there is plank time...but yet Einstein even quoted, "before God, we are all equally wise equally foolish" but then he was just a radical monotheist.?
