What I hate the most about arguments over Global Warming and Evolution is the fact that there are people out there who do not know what a Theory is. They seem to think it is is a Hypothesis or an Idea.
A theory has to be tested several times before it is a theory
A theory is:
A set of statements or principles devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena, especially one that has been repeatedly tested or is widely accepted and can be used to make predictions about natural phenomena.
In the case of global warming we understand the nature of methane and carbon dioxide. We have an understanding of the percipitation cycle we also have an understanding of SSTs and how they regulate earths temperture. To expect Micro predictions is foolish and improbable to predict somethign on a larger scale is far easier because much of te varitions we observe everyday is chaotic.
There are mountains of evidence that support both Globabl Warming and Evolution and the reason why people tend to state them as fact is that both theories are Universially accepted.
Once again a theory is something that has some supporting evidence. that Nuclear power Plant runs of something that is a theory. the Sun's energy source is somethign that is just a theory(Fusion).
I can sort of understand the resistance to accepting Global Warmign because it means a change in behavior but the resistance to Evolution completely befuddles me. It doesn't change anything.
