Is Evolution a "scientific" theory? Does it have the qualities of every other scientific theory. For example, can it predict anything that couldn't have been predicted before Darwin published his work? It dosen't seem as though darwinism can predict anything because darwinism can accomadate any scenario. As Karl Popper once said during a breif moment of honestly, if in an experiment you put some bacterium on an unihabited planet and left it there for 2 billion years, darwinism could account for whatever happened. If there were only a few simple organisms darwinism could explain. if there was nothing darwinism could explain. if there were advanced life forms darwinism could explain. A theory that can explain every conceivable scenario is not a scientific theory. A true scientific theory tells us about the way the world works, which means it must be able to predict. Much of what evolution DOES claim to predict are about changes WITHIN species that could have been made pre-darwin.

Maybe it should be in the Mythology category? Or maybe Yahoo should start a fairy tale category.

Christians are defined by those who don't practice what they preach, not by the majority that does.
Islams are defined as terrorists, when it may be one of the most loving religions out there.
Atheists are thought of as unkind hopeless people, when most of the ones are know are really nice, brutally honest people.

The world is flat?
[79:30] He made the earth egg-shaped

You didn't understand the other chapters because you probably brought them out from a Christian website...

The sun moves around the Earth?
--sura 21, verse 33:
"(God is) the One Who created the night,and day, the sun and the moon. Each one is travelling in an orbit with its own motion."
--sura 36, verse 40:
"The sun must not catch up the moon, nor does the night outstrip the day. Each one is travelling in an orbit with its own motion."

Etc... i can't translate all the qu'ran because i don't have the skills of Arabic... but it is to show that maybe the interpretation that you give might not be the right one...

The rest of your "mistakes" are not mistakes but your own tradition and culture telling you that you know better
Just show me mistakes that can contradict science because the rest cannot be proven

There are no IRA rants on here, why? Only rants about Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq are allowed I guess. Why does everyone hate Islam?

People say it's not a religion.

Maybe it has something to do with spirituality.

They will bring over food items and wave/ talk to you. But, if they are on their cellphone or talking to someone they will only look at you. They will never even lift a hand up for a simple wave, after they have already looked at you. They also find it very easy to come over if they need anything, but can't pick up their hand in other instances? They also will come off as competitive. For example if we go for a bike ride, they will be on a bike ride the same time as we are next time we are out. Not wanting to be with us, but showing us they can do it to. If they wanted to go with us they would have left the same time, not when were just coming back.

My sister found a book called "The great exemplar, the life & death of the holy jesus" written by James Flesher for Richard Royston. 1653. If anyone has any info on this please let me know. It is a very old book and looks like it is hand written. It mentions Lord Hatton the baron of kirby, and lady frances countess of carbery.

'Wild Cambodia jungle-girl' found
A Cambodian girl who disappeared aged eight has been found after reportedly living wild in the jungle for 19 years.
Rochom P'ngieng's father says he has identified her through scars but she cannot speak any intelligible language.
Ms Rochom P'ngieng disappeared tending buffalo in Rattanakiri province, 350km (220 miles) north-east of Phnom Penh.
Local police said she was "half-human and half-animal". Her father says he will have DNA tests taken to prove she is his daughter.

without domesticating social conditioning a human is no different than any other wild animal?

Are Christians and Muslims afraid of the facts that the Bible and the Quran combine to expose their ignorance about Christ and the crucifixion that haunts Jerusalem?

In 1988 the Vatican declared the Shroud of Turin a hoax on the evidence of carbon-dating to avoid being humiliated by the evidence of the combination of Bible and Quran about the real facts of Scripture.

In 1999, In Sydney, Australia, a group of Muslims avoided being humiliated by the same combination of Quran and Bible when they reneged on a promise to publish research that exposed their ignorance of the Scriptures as they chose to save their bookstore with a full stock of the false Jesus of Islam.

Christians and Muslims are ashamed to be told by their books that Christ and Pilate got together and outsmarted the World for most of 2000 years as they misread and misunderstood their own Books.

The Age Of Reason, at www.xlibris.com since 2001, exposes the secrets of Scripture in Bible and Quran they wont touch.
