Spectroscopy, chromatography, material sciences, pharmacology, your cell phone!! etc... all come from the same science, you use it everyday, how can you possibly doubt it anymore?

I agree. Evolution is the foundation of modern biology. Without it, the entire discipline crumbles. Yet these same "evolution deniers" want their freakin' flu shot every year. (By the way - the reason we need a different flu shot each year is because the virus EVOLVES!!)

I use my cell phone every day, but it doesn't work all the time. Pharmacology generally accepts the death/injury of some test subjects as acceptable margin of error. Spectroscopy and chromatography are reliable methods, but they aren't sciences. From one scientist to (possibly) another: this is the wrong line of reasoning. You're advocating blind faith in science, which is counterproductive to scientific inquiry. Science, like faith, demands that we ask questions.

what about the atom bomb, nuclear weapons, anthrax...science is not always a good thing, and it is not always right. i think you need to remember that evolution is a theory, not a fact. many theories have been proven wrong over the years - evolution may be one of these.
by the way, i am not religious, and i dont believe we were just placed on this earth by god. i do believe in evolution, but i also believe we all need to keep an open mind to the possibilities that are out there that we have not yet discovered.

Anyone who says otherwise needs to stop trusting the bible. Really, when did the bible become a reliable source of information? People can continue debating about the terms we should attribute to evolution (theory- not proven, blah, blah, blah). They're only setting themselves up for a great disappointment when they die... and discover there's nothing to life after all!

What created your cell phone ?
It's plastic and electronics right ?
Evolution was dispproved about 25 to 30 years ago.
Science (embarrased) always takes 50 to 100 years to "humble itself".

They are all different sciences. Even the science of evolution says it has not or can not be proved. Why then would we believe in it. Evolution can not pass the test that is expected of all science that is of empirical evidence

Science is having anybody being able to objectively look at the same evidence over and over again and being able to come to the same conclusion over and over again.
Evolution lacks this. There are too many assumptions to make Evolution a science. While there is evidence of micro-evolution (cats are still cats), there is no evidence of macro-evolution (cats turn into dogs).
A real scientist will acknowledge the holes in evolution and conclude more research is required.
Until then, you are a pseudo-scientist if you claim humans adapted from a sub-species.
