I was going to read the first post fully, but stopped when I realized that you were a crazy raging religious nut pissed off because something speaks against what the bible suggests happened. You are now ranked just above the Westboro Baptist Church members. Which is not good.
Your title is pure irony. Both in the "An Unproven Hypothesis" and the "The Rise of Ignorance", let me explain why both are ironic. First I will start with your ignorance.
I'll even label this in sections to help you read it.
Your ignornace.Have you ever done a science project? You know, the thing where you question something and then set out to prove it. There is a list you go on.
1.) Question.
2.) Back ground research.
3.) Hypothesis.
4.) Experiment.
5.) Analyze data.
6.) Conclusion.
As you can see, the hypothesis is only the third step and it's a pretty small step at that, it is taking an educated guess at what you believe the conclusion will be before you begin your experiment to prove or disprove it.
Now we continue on with you saying that it is taught like it is fact. Let me pull out a dictionary definition here.
Dictionary definition for the word Theory: "A set of statements or principles devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena. Most theories that are accepted by scientists have been repeatedly tested by experiments and can be used to make predictions about natural phenomena"
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/theoryIn case you have trouble understanding what a Theory is, it is a generally accepted but not PROVEN fact about an object/event/etc/etc. Thus it is not taught like it is 100% fact like a Law would be.
http://chemistry.about.com/od/chemistry ... theory.htm^ Use that site for Hypothesis, theory, and law if you wish.
So far we have already proven you to be illiterate in all meanings of the term illiterate.
"Adjective
Unable to read or write.
Noun
A person who is unable to read or write.
Synonyms
unlettered -
ignorant -
uneducated - unlearned"
But I am not finished with your ignorance yet.
[15] This foundationless theory of evolution is what is being taught as "fact" in children schools and Universities in the United States and around the world. And many so called "intellectual" people buy it with out ever really questioning the Theory. They simply accept it as fact. The fact is that if you don't accept this theory as fact, then you are looked down upon by the majority of the intellectual world as being ignorant of the so called facts of the so called "truth of evolution" or are just plain stupid. You take your pick.
This is my favourite part by you so far. We have seen that you are a religious ignorant nut, but you put down people who would rather try to use science to prove their Theory. While you follow the bible. Something that is not allowed to be questioned because of "religious freedom". Well to any who would argue that I am infringing on religious freedom, I'd like to take a moment here and point out the Freedom of Speech and Rights of Equality here. If he is bashing others who want to actually ask questions and find facts behind what they believe in he is going to have to put up with people who bash his religion for NOT asking questions and not finding proof.
(This whole few next paragraphs besides Viceroy, whom I do not care if he is offended by it do not read if you are easily offended or at least are one of the "Good" christians that do not go around bashing other people because they are not some hate mongering religious kind of being.)So now we are here to ask a double standard. From the moment you are born into a heavy Christian family you are taught to follow the bible without question. There is no question to whether "god" exists, where he went, what he looks like, or the fact that supposedly to some christian beliefs that he banishes people to hell for being a homosexual, touching themselves, etc. But why does he banish people that he created? Why torture those that he created that are supposedly "perfect" in his eyes? The reason. Because if he exists he doesn't care. It is people twisting it to what they like and dislike as apposed to what god likes or dislikes. Have you spoken to him face to face with the ability to touch him and see him? If not, then you are following something off of which others have told you to be true with NO evidence to back up that he exists or that he is even a he at all.
You question scientists because they only dig up certain sites and find certain bones and not find other bones in between. Well unless you want to let them dig up every square inch of this ENTIRE world it is impossible to find every bit of evolution. Bones are scattered across the world and there are cities probably built on tons and tons of bones below.
But I refuse to get into a big debate with you or anyone else on religion because I am only met with ignorance and the same horse ____ that they use to protect themselves from real questions. Instead, I will give you the definition of a cult.
Cult:
"Noun
A system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.
A relatively small group of people having religious beliefs or practices regarded by others as strange or sinister.
Synonyms
worship - religion - adoration"
So to put it into simple terms, religion is just another word for a mass cult.
Finally the whole irony behind "An Unproven Hypothesis"I am starting to believe that you do not fully grasp the English language every well. Of course it is unproven yet, they are still in the experimental/analyzing data part of the protect. That is why it is still known to us as a Theory and not a Law.
Now finally, I am done trying to explain to you where you are wrong, because frankly I feel the majority of my post will be ignored because your ignorance and self pride of what you believe you know much on the subject is too great to actually listen to people who can put many flaws into your argument.
Keep in mind, I am neither religious nor unreligious so when writing this entire post I have written it with a sense of being able to see from both sides of the religion part of the debate. Which you my friend cannot do sadly.
