Is this a joke? Are you kidding me? And the girl who referred to the Bible as "firm evidence" because it hasn't changed in 5000 years ago, are you a freaking idiot? First of all, it certainly has changed in 5000 years. The "New Testament" describes events that allegedly took place 2000 years ago, and historians and theologians are discovering new things associated with Biblical stories all of the time.
If you smug, holier than thou zealots would wipe the foam off of your mouths long enough to listen instead of spewing nonsense (or is that speaking in tongues?) you would see that scientists are only trying to better understand the world we live in, and there are different ideas because that's how we get to the truth... by opening up a dialogue and testing our ideas until we figure it out. You're only intimidated that evolution might contradict the story of Genesis (which, incidentally was not taught by Jesus, but by his predecessors). But if you had a brain and a heart and could put the two together, you would accept that God works in mysterious ways, and has brought us all here to this point in a way that is so much more sophisticated and holy than some crude seven day play-doh assembly imagined by primitives... The more I learn about how the world was really created (Big Bang) and how humans got here (Evolution) the more respect I have for the beauty and divine consciousness of the universe. And if you can't see that because you can't see around a book that was put together by humans based on their interpretations of the world around them and edited to meet very human sociopolitical expectations, then perhaps we haven't evolved as much as I thought we had.

Let me get this straight, you hate science (something that has saved millions of people's lives, improved life quality for millions, spared even more millions from unnecessary suffering, led to the invention of medicines you have probably used several times yourself and led to the invention of the device you are using right now) because it has shown that stories written 1900 years ago are perhaps not that smart?
Also, how exactly does science go against the teachings of Christ? I've never seen a scientific report concluded that killing people is good. In fact, evolutionary theory has shown that co-operation in a species is very beneficial.

Actually Christ, as far as we know, had absolutely nothing to say about lesbians, evolution, stem cell research or abortions.
He did have a whole lot to say about caring for the less fortunate, forgiveness and love.

I think you're making a joke...but I will say, it's annoying how statistics can pretty much be manipulated to say anything you want - and that's why you'll find so much scientific evidence "proving" completely opposite things - which only confuses people that don't understand how important it is to look at any study's peer reviews before totally believing it.

Bellman equations. They drive me nuts. Conceptually they are not hard, but with a difficult enough objective function, they are a nightmare, especially with autoregressive error terms. There must be an easier way!

I think it is the fact that science bases its arguments on facts that gets my blood boiling the most. How dare they parade their "evidence" in my face? Shameless. I prefer the Bible. My favorite part is when Jesus put Mentos in Diet Coke...Awesome!

What gets me is the way people use it like some intellectual catch phrase to make up for their ignorance of it.
They say stupid things like "I follow the science" "Science says" "I trust the science" but they have absolutely no idea what the scientist really say. They read some asinine tabloid headline and think its a fact.
For example, "Gene linked to being gay." They read it and think there you have it but have know idea how gene complexes work to express a single trait. Or when scientist try to age something that some gizzillion years old and there is absolutely no way to prove it.
