On another note, how does my belief in those things have to do with this case? You are such a trolling moron. Your anti-christian, anti-anything that isn't vetted to get you laid by a hairy-assed hippie chic is beyond pathetic. Oh BTW, those who are actually involved in a discourse about the original topic, ignore the Troll Laser tag. | |||

a theory is an attempt to explain observations. hence, darwin's theory of evolution is a theory. it is an attempt to explain the observable phenomenon known as evolution, which is itself factually proven. organisms change genetically over time inter-generationally based on environmental stimuli, we know this, we can observe it, and we can prove it. modern treatment of infection and germ theory is founded as well on the observable phenomenon known as evolution. modern food production is also founded upon our ancestors' observations of evolution. most of our modern crops and domestic animals, for instance, are a product of millenia of engineered evolution. any world view that rejects observable phenomena are not theories, they are rather known as the insane ramblings of a lunatic. i'm sure you have been presented this argument before and judged it as preposterous that such a thing as evolution exists and is observable, but maybe this can reach someone else. | |||

let me explain it to you another way. Take gravity. When you throw a ball off of the side of a building, it falls. That's gravity. The fact that the ball fell is just that; a fact. It can't be rationally explained away as not having happened. Now when you do this a hundred times, and you predict based on your observation of the ball falling a hundred times that the ball will once again fall on the 101st attempt, that's a theory (we call it the "theory of gravity"). It can be demonstrably proven or disproven on your 101st attempt whether or not the ball will fall. That doesn't mean your theory becomes a fact - your theory will never be a fact, because it is trying to predict rather than observe. Predictions can never be facts. The current "theory of evolution" (not quite the same as darwin's theory of evolution, but he wasn't so far off) has been able to accurately predict the results of experimentation for some time. It will surely either be revised or cast aside if new experimentation renders its predictive power useless. this is why it is being taught in schools. What can any alternative interpretation of the facts predict? Quote:
How about this: Would you defend the proposition that bacteria resistant to synthetic penicillins (and indeed, all hypothetical drug-resistant bacteria that may exist in the future to as of yet undiscovered drugs) were already in existence from the beginning of creation? | ||||

Georgia is one of the more backwards places in the nation, in my opinion.

I'm also surprised no one has mentioned that stupid Reba song.
