I also can't understand why some people act like my view of the origin of life and God is somehow a threat to Science, the Scientific method, or technological progress. It great to know the age of bones, how stars form, discuss theories on how we might have gotten here, but that doesn't stop any of the benefits science has to offer to humanity. Whether a scientist thinks life sprung out of the ocean or was created by God doesn't in any way impede things like cancer research, infectious disease research and cures, technological advancements, or any other scientific field that actually has a positive effect on humanity in general. I talk about issues I have with specific theories in one field of Science and some of you have a meltdown and think I'm attacking Science as a whole. Nothing could be further from the truth.


No one said that. We're saying substantiate your claim instead of attacking ours which is based upon evidence. Do you have evidence to support your claim that isn't anecdotal?

Otherwise you're just using a burden of proof fallacy.
