Now, the nonsense isn't so bad and microevolution is generally accepted.

Eventually, knowledge of evolution will penetrate the culture and they will accept it altogether.
Will it then be called just evolution instead of the THEORY of evolution? LOL

Physics is science.

Biology is science(minus the evolution nonsense).

Psychology is not science.

Sorry psychologists and psichiatrists.
It's perfectly scientific if you do it right.

Don't forget - Science can has begun meaningfully interacting with brains !!!

TMS, PET scans, MRI, fMRI, DTI, EEG, and so on, it's all very exciting.

LOLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAHHAAAAAAHHAAAAAA!!!

Are you a billion years old?

If not, then how is what you claim an "observable fact".

You evolutionists are so silly.

LOL!!!!

You can't even spell "observable' correctly.

No, theory is used differently in science.

A scientific theory is basically a collection of well established ideas for explaining something, e.g. Gravitational Theory. The 'Theory of Gravity' is what we know about gravity.

The scientific equivalent for what you're thinking is hypothesis.

His argument is a bit simplified, but it is mind-boggling the amount of assumptions that are made by scientists when attempting to date a fossil.

The fossil record contains zero evidence of any transitional fossils.

Try again, Mr. Evolutionist.

You believe in a fairy tale, my friend.

Every fossil is just two more holes they can't explain

We know much about gravity.

We know nothing about macroevolution, becauae it does not occur.
