Again I apologize if I'm re-hashing what has already been discussed due to my not following these discussions from the beginning but I assume by saying that (and I do agree with that statement) I can also state with the same implications that "Evolution" (in terms of the origins of earth and all living things) is also NOT science, but rather a theory. If you DO in fact disagree with this please please please hurry back to my previously cited website http://www.drdino.com and collect your $250, 000 (that's a heck of a lot of LEGO!). > Quote Evolution is positively anti-science. Science deals with things that are testable, observable, and demonstrable and evolution has none of those qualities. To call evolution "science" Is to confuse fairy tales with facts. True, evolution has been mixed with science for the last thirty years, but that does not mean that it is the same as science. Beer is often advertised during sporting events but the two subjects have no logical connection, and evolution has no more to do with science than beer has to do with sports." > /Unquote (FROM http://www.drdino.com/Articles/Article6.jsp) -- -TiM NB, CA http://echofx.itgo.com t_c_c@yahoo.com 3ch0fx
