    What's the point? Spending hundreds of thousands of hours to prove evolution is true is leading to what?

    No one set out with the theory and then tried to work backward. That is what creationists did and do.

    Science works the other way. Evidence --> theory

    You look at the evidence and follow where it leads.

    There are a number of fields where basic research contributes to the overall evidence supporting the theory of evolution. Physics, chemistry, geology, biology, genetics, etc.

    As for the "now what" part, that really hasn't changed. Life is short, limited and precious. Sorry I can't tell you what to do with it. The fun part is figuring that out for yourself, and some never get around to it.

    Personally I am very happy to be a father and husband. That alone is worth while to me. Learning, discovering, und understanding that is what life is about, IMO. Helping people.

    We are making huge leaps in our understanding of the universe. Einstein unfortunately was a media tool for the most part. It does not surprise me he could not decipher quantum mechanics. His theories were a conglomeration of others before him, but he had his place.
    I have actually payed more attention to Tesla from a practical point of view especially after reading about his disagreements with Edison who had employed him for a while and consequently stole some of his ideas, AC versus DC currents.
    I wish there was more literature about Tesla, I would devour it.
    Edison pretty much ruined his life.

    We also share 98% with mice and pigs, not to mention 50% DNA with bananas.

    Do a little research before you enter a debate cursing like a cab driver.

    Are you talking about the Science that just the other day said they were wrong about the dinosaurs all along?

    http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/show...25#post6934425

    Or the science that said Asbestos is safe for your kids to play in? maybe you meant the science that said Lucky Strikes cigarets are good for you?

    It can't be today's science the one that still can't find a cure for the the common cold is it? please be specific.

    "some scientists were wrong about something, therefore science in general is wrong"
    "scientists can't make mistakes ever"
    "paleontologists discovered fossils of a new species of dinosaur, therefore science was wrong about dinosaurs"
    "since a cure for a virus hasn't been found, all scientists, no matter what field of expertise they are in, are suspect"

    Vintage mouse re logic. The constant use of "science" as some kind of person rather than a system is just the icing on the top.

    Yeah, because it probably wouldn't make any sense as a sentence. In regards to religious and spiritual beliefs, you are completely wrong. There either is a god(s) or there isn't. The numerous religions that man created throughout our history can't all be right, but they can definitely all be wrong.

    won't waste a lot of time with you - but the idiotic crap you spew -

    "if the bible has an inconsistency - it is all garbage" is what I am referring to.

    No difference - either side - no one is superior.

    Never had I made an argument like that.

    If everybody is the same, you should be able to demonstrate that without using strawmen.

    Take your time, I'll wait.

    Nothing to demonstrate. No one knows the truth about "god"

    Complete and absolute mystery. Only idiots act superior because they think they "know" - one way or the other - and there are idiots on both sides,

    Neither side is superior. All of us are blind.

    He is also either ignorant to the scientific method or chooses to ignore it since it destroys his whole anti-science stance

    Cool dodge and pathetic attempt to try and change the subject. I already destroyed you before on this matter, yet you keep coming back for more.

    Why don't you use another strawman and start talking about your "mystic" nonsense again? I need a good laugh.

    You never learned anything the first time - you are still programmed, still blind, still brainwashed.

    How do you tell a man in a dream who is unaware it is a dream - that he is dreaming?

    Sorry, you can't.

    I can't because this isn't Inception and I can't go into other people's dreams.

    But please continue trying to pass of your gibberish as insightful, though. We all appreciate your pseudo-enlightened shtick followed by calling people who were mean to you on the internet " gots" and "cucks."

    There are good and bad personalities on both sides of this debate.
    But the ONLY truth that both agree on is that neither side can prove or disprove the other.
    So, yes, he is correct, in this day and age it is a mystery, and that is WHY it is still called a mystery, by both sides, no, by all sides. Because there are more angles than just "there is or is not a God".
