Mostly on purpose as it turns out, which just makes it all the more annoying.


Mmm, nope! It is because so many "experts" have been found to be biased, misled, like al gore based on fake science, etc. etc.

People are sick and tired of experts failing them, disappointing them, and cynicism is well-founded these days.

I don't know why many fail to agree, but they rather believe in some book written hundreds of years ago. Most scientists have proven Darwinism on so many scales, so why do most humans won't buy it?


you are wrong, most people do believe in evolution as many surveys have shown.

hmm. scientists do not 'mislead'. never heard a case of that happening. with evolution (the most proven theory in the history of science) which is the backbone of biology, chemistry and many others fields. if ANYTHING in LIFE has EVER BEEN proven AT ALL it's evolution.

all tons of data in every area and the whole scientific community are NOT lying to you.

REALITY IS NOT LYING TO YOU>

"Evolution" is a ridiculous idea, promulgated by atheists who had to find some reason for their existance since they decided not to believe God!

What does it matter how old (I assume you were referring to the Bible) the "book" is? And it is a pretty amazing book, written by men with less education than most have today, yet they wrote with greater wisdom and authority than their education would have us believe possible. Why? Because they wrote as the Holy Spirit moved them (for you atheists and dummies that don't understand this terminology, that means that God himself wrote through them).

Now, you examine any scripture you wish, and you tell me what uneducated man today could possibly write even one verse as elloquently as these men. Even the birth, the life, and the death of Christ was foretold with amazing detail and accuracy.

But, you can stick with your particular fantasy. You are allowed to ramain ignorant. You are free. I couldn't care less. But I do wish you would quit mocking those of us who believe God. Yours is the more ridiculous position. At least I can say you are creative!

stupidist posts EVER.

evolution is the most proven thing ever in human history. basically if you don't believe in evolution there's no reason to believe in the law of gravity (which is less proven) or anything in any other field that evolution is the backbone of.

also scientists aren't menical atheists who discover these things to prove your religion wrong.

their finding evidence to explain the natural world has nothing to do with them plotting against your religion. that's not their motive. silly egotistical post.

No, they really haven't. There's a lot of people who want you to believe that the science of evolution has these kinds of problems and is therefore suspect.

It doesn't to any extent that matters anymore. Not for many, many years. Now that we can actually study DNA in detail, there's no doubt anymore about evolution among the sane and educated.

The people who spout this propaganda anti-evolution have an agenda, and the truth is not part of it. If you took the time to study the science itself you would see this not to be true.

Learn some science and study both sides of the debate. One side lies. Constantly.

I'm certain you've not spent enough time in either place to know.

Well, science doesn't ever really "prove" anything. That being said, there is so much evidence to support the law of microevolution that no one with an IQ above room temperature would dispute it. Since macroevolution is a rather logical outgrowth, it stands to reason that macroevolution is real. It is also supported by the fossil record. Plus, if anyone has a better idea that doesn't involve invisible people, then I'd like to hear it.
