THIS IS I ALWAYS USE YES OR NO QUESTIONS FOR YOU
YOUR DISHONESTY SPEAKS TO THE HEAVENS

So Somebody that holds PHD in molecular biology is not a "proper scientist"?
Because He doesn't hold your belief?

I can see

PLEASE WHO IS A PROPER SCIENTIST?
IT MUST BE AN ATHEIST, I GUESS
Just read this quote.
In his book Icons of Evolution: Science or Myth? (2000), Wells argues that a number of examples used to illustrate biology textbooks were grossly exaggerated, distorted truth, or were patently false. Wells said that this shows that evolution conflicts with the evidence, and so argued against its teaching in public education.
Some reviewers of Icons of Evolution have said that Wells misquoted experts cited as sources and took minor issues out of context, basing his argument on a flawed syllogism but Wells has responded insisting those accusations are untrue. Wells's views on evolution have been rejected by the scientific community.
At the bolded is where peer review comes into play, you can't​ just bring any rubbish and expect the scientific community to swallow it without any scrutiny.
He also has a PhD in religious studies which clearly explains why he is having issues with everything.

AIDS remains a controversial topic in the science world till tomorrow
There are many notable scientists who differ on the topic.
Either sides have their reasons and evidences.
Stop talking like a child.

Looking supid is when u that has only MBBS says a professor is not a proper scientist.
That is looking stupid
An infant born with HIV knows it exists, he doesn't need any fancy degrees to make that deduction. He is an insult to his PhD in Molecular Biology and he is not a professor. He is not the first anyways, D.K Olukoya is another example.
Or do you believe AIDS doesn't exist? Yes or No answer please.

You don't read
The man never said AIDS doesn't exist. Go and read properly what he said.
You just heard of him
Instead of reading everything you went to cherrypick his religious belief and want to use it to fault his works.
Just because you want to continue your argument.

Besides, do you think Jonathan Wells is the only professor who has Disproved evolution ?

Its people who disagree with him that say he is rejected

Oh So now you what they call fallacy of appeal to authority?
I remember when you said "they are authority for a reason"
In an argument in the past.
When I introduced u to "fallacy of authority"

Unfortunately, you are already guilty of it here, even before I asked u that question
You just quoted a mysterious "the scientific community" (that has no name)
And used it as excuse on Jonathan Wells.

So First of all correct your own fallacy.

Ogbeni, this back and forth is not helping matters. Produce his peer reviewed article. That's how it works in science. If you can't do that, then he is just spewing pseudoscientific jargon that wasn't reproduced by anybody else but himself.

Cop out.
Jonathan Wells works are littered everywhere.
Use your google.
At first u said he is not a "proper scientist"
Now your excuse is "peer reviewed article"

After that one you will ask for "his boxers."
And yet u r accusing me of back and forth.

How it works in science is you write an article, then it is peer reviewed, then it is published in a journal. Sure, he has articles about molecular biology.
But when it comes to evolution, he has none. He is not a proper scientist as far as evolution is concerned, he is a pseudoscientific nutjob.
A PhD in molecular biology denying HIV though. That's all shades of strange. Affirms my nutjob position.

What is shifting goal posts? I asked you to do just one thing. Provide link of a peer reviewed article. You're just there dancing skelewu. It's a thing about theists anyways, anytime they make a claim and you ask for proof, they start ranting and raving, so I'm not surprised.

highscript:
I'm an atheist , there are wiccan atheist and they cast spell, there are people studying witchcraft in the universities maybe not in Africa but there are many in Europe and other continents ... Casting spell has nothing to do with God since spells,magic and the likes are science that today's science have no explanation for (now). if someone come with a remote control and a tv in year 1200 without explanation everybody will think its a magic because there is no explanation for it , there are cloaking devices now that will make you appear invisible by bending light through the garment but scientists still have a long way to go on it ...
This life is full of energy so when someone is using those energy theist should stop associating it with God ...
Sorry for my English

So you believe in casting spell that has no explanation but disbelief in God because you want to see him before you believe? Your delusion is out of this world, anyway thanks for telling the other ignorant self acclaimed atheist about atheism and witchcraft
