...our knowledge can be only finite, while our ignorance must necessarily be infinite. Well said. I only have an Associates Degree from Santa Barbara City College so there is that. [ Insert shameless promotion of SBCC ] international.sbcc.edu Girls? 4 to 1 during the late 70's. You read that right.

Sir Karl Raimond Popper one of the 20th century greats in the philosophy of science (& very good guys) in his essay "Natural selection and the emergence of mind" he states: en.wikiquote.org Darwinism is not a testable scientific theory, but a metaphysical research program. Unsourced variant: Evolution is not a fact. Evolution doesn't even qualify as a theory or as a hypothesis. It is a metaphysical research program, and it is not really testable science. But Popper later retracted his criticisms: I have changed my mind about the testability and logical status of the theory of natural selection; and I am glad to have an opportunity to make a recantation. Always remember that it is impossible to speak in such a way that you cannot be misunderstood: there will always be some who misunderstand you.
