nvrrong....see? that's called "learning." like what happened when our opinion that the world was flat turned out to be wrong, so we changed our thoughts on the matter, didn't we? at least most of us did. come on in, the water's fine.

Yes, indeed, scientific re-evaluation is a wonderful thing. Imagine what it would be like if religion was like that.

Yes, despite the hiccups that come with establishment positions and entrenched paradigms,
(Science, since done by human beings, is not as pure as its theory suggests. It gets contaminated with politics, funding issues, personality clashes...)
new opinions do emerge and are reinforced, modified or replaced in due course.
Phlogiston, N-Rays and the canals of Mars all came and went. Despite different periods of being in fashion, and acquiring different degrees of scientific respectability.
Oh, and for Labgrrl, there's the second URL.

It's good to know that "a developing juvenile erectus" is a legitimate and innocent expression.

It's even nicer to see them scratch their wooden heads when their answers only lead to more questions that they cannot answer. Like Einstein, who admitted that the further he got into science, the more he realized that there had to be a divine intelligence behind it all. And who'da thunk that men of science might start to realize that men of old, real sages, knew what the scientists know now, yet thousands of years ago, without science.

It is pretty nice. But what are facts to these people anyway? They're meaningless.
And just so you know, there WERE raptors on Noah's arc. I swear.

No. I believe in God and no facts, evidence or common sense is going to mess with my head.
God is real. Nah, nah, naaaaaaaah! Not listening!

yep, if you think about it, its like a painting. the Bible paints it out for you. in science, we have to make our own lines, and come up with an idea of what it is. i guess it's funny finding out, then to know. it is for me.

Yes.
It's a pity that it's been a while since we've had new evidence in my field of evolutionary Biology.

It is nice. Unlike those that blindly follow their stubborn ways despite NO evidence.
