How Come Most Christians Here Dont Know What A Theory Is? by Nobody: 9:42am On Dec 29, 2015
When they hear theory, what comes to mind is "guess work". You see statements like " its just a theory , its not fact" . Going by their definition of theory that means the wave theory of light is not a fact but a guess work. grin

When we talk about scientific stuffs, we use scientific definitions.

A theory is an idea or set of ideas that is intended to explain facts or events.

A theory CANNOT be promoted to a fact.

A theory explains a fact.

Evolution is a fact.

Evolution theory sets to explain evolution(a fact).

You deciding not to accept it doesn't change the fact.

Let me cut out a statement from Wikipedia on evolution

Evolution is a cornerstone of modern science, accepted as one of the most reliably established of all facts and theories of science, based on evidence not just from the biological sciences but also from anthropology, psychology, astrophysics, chemistry, geology, physics, mathematics, and other scientific disciplines, as well as behavioral and social sciences.

Evolution is not only a fact but [size=16pt] the most reliably established of all facts and theories of science[/size] . You deciding not to accept it , for whatever reason doesnt change any fact.

Well, it's easy for you and I to read the above , digest understand it and nourish our store of knowledge.

It doesn't work as simple as that for religiotards.

Their brains, theirs receptor neurons are filled and barricaded with layers of lead, inspired by fear.
Imparting direct knowledge is completely out the question.

To get through to their minds, you need to employ a Trojan horse.
Plant seeds of thought by way of either mockery or humor, and then, sit back and let it run it's full course.

Don't be surprised that despite your post above, later today or tomorrow, kingebukasblog, malvisguy212, winner01 , etc will still come out and proclaim , with alacrity, that evolution is an unproven guesswork and fraud inspired by the devil, skyfairy's evil twin brother.
