You don't get to talk about science because you don't understand (and refuse to learn about) evolution. You probably have no idea what the word "empirical" means. I honestly wonder if you made it past 8th grade.

So I am suddenly ignorant simply becuase I refuse to embrace a mere theory as science? That is the most bigoted statement I have every read. Congratulations.

There is zero proof for evolution, it is only a theory, and not science. Learn the difference.

Ahem... WRONG!!!

Evolution occurred, this is a fact. The theories of evolution are simply ideas which have been supported by strong evidence that explain how evolution probably came about.

To put this in perspective, gravity is a scientific fact. We know that if we drop something, it will fall. On the other hand, there are a number of theories as to precisely how gravity works, exactly like evolution. So, when you argue that evolution isn't real, make sure you argue that gravity isn't either, they're both scientific fact with theories about how the processes involved work.

I know, this topic isn't about this, but... it doesn't really seem to be about anything, so why not.

Newton's theory of gravity has been proven false btw.

AND WE STILL USE IT.

TAKE THAT, DARKNEMESIS.

Yes, I probably shouldn't have made that topic in the first place, I assumed we could debate issues with sensibilty, guess I was wrong. I'm done posting here, a mod can lock it if he wishes, it's just flames anyway...

Because saying you are better than someone still in high school because of your 1 and 1/2 years of college = sensible debating.

I didn't say I was better than Wootz.
