I sort of wondered if our conversation was going to bear any fruit. I can see now it won't. I could defend all those, but I won't. I'll just use one as an example of why am disappointed in this post. When you go on and on about what the word theory actually means, e.g." It is actually the theory that most of the observations on adaptation are based" , right there you are not trying to be constructive. You know damn well what I meant. And what I meant was what was important. It was the way we use the language in our country. The word theory. But you knew and could have given me that and then went from there. But you couldn't do that. You ha to take me into the weeds, to destruct the discussion. That is not how Socrates and Plato did it! You know that the point was that science knows that evolution is a fact, and that was the point. Instead of simply addressing that as such, you wanted to go into wordplay, obfuscation. I don't think you're serious a person. But I tried. << >>>The Republican Party doesn't even believe in evolution! Evolution is taught as fact in every major university in the world and is reproduced many times a day in the lab. There is not a bit of theory in it, it is absolute hard-core 100% percent fact.<<< You've forwarded the claim, now it is on you to provide a source representing the Republican Party's belief to support your claim. Some whacko carry a picket doesn't qualify, your source has to be accepted by the Vast Republican Party as a spokes person for their beliefs. If you can't find such a source you must acknowledge that it is merely your conjecture, one that most republicans reject. >>>There is not a bit of theory in it, it is absolute hard-core 100% percent fact.<<< It is actually the theory that most of the observations on adaptation are based. This does not make the findings any less factual. It does not account for origins except in theory and there is quite a bit of theory about things not yet accounted for.
