Nor can evolution explain anything. You cannot even prove that one plus one equals two. It is not provable. You take evolution on faith and faith alone, because if even one of your postulations ever changed, or has ever changed in the past without your knowing it, then your entire evolutionary theory is out the window. Your entire knowledge base hinges upon things having always been the same as they are right this moment. A very narrow view, and very limited.

I understand that your first language is Desperanto, so I make allowances for magical distortions. I understand that "to mean" is an unknown concept in Desperanto which is why it has no word for "definition". The closest meaning in English would be something like:- the frantic scrabbling of a twit to assign a ludicrous concept to a commonly used expression or word. For example, in Desperanto:- two = a nebulous expression of duality, itself a type of vague plurality, whereby a thing plus another thing can be referred to as an unknown and uncountable quantity of things existing in a magical distortion field. Compare with the English:- a thing plus another thing = two things,

"You cannot even prove that one plus one equals two. "

You most certainly can prove that 1+1=2. I won't do it here because it takes a lot of space. Bertrand Russel and Alfred Whitehead proved that very thing in about 300 pages. There are shorter proofs but they were basically redefining the foundation of mathematics.

So just because you do not understand something does not mean that it isn't true. Your ignorance has no bearing on truth and reality.

If something we believe to be true about evolution changed it would not cause the entire theory to be thrown out. You have a fundamental misunderstanding of what a scientific theory is. It would only cause us to alter the theory to better explain the current facts.

Things are constantly changing, those changes are slow and gradual but are happening. By studying the changes that happen today scientists can hypothesis possible changes in the past and then look for evidence. Now scientists need to keep open minds and realize that the evidence may contradict the hypothesis. Yet time and time again evidence proves the hypothesis right and that is why evolution is one of the strongest scientific theories out there. A theory in science is not the same as a conspiracy theory.

Now yes the average person has Faith in evolution but if look at the evidence and what supports evolution then you will see its not blind faith.

Oh stop it with the bullshit that God is just as valid as the concept of two and thereby more valid then evolution, just fucking stop with that bullshit right now. Philisophically repremiseing is experimenting in madness, walking into that belief that nothing can be proven and every belief is on equal standing.

One L: L
Add one more L: LL
Done, in the real world, the actual physical existance we live in that is the undeniable reality. You want to say that's not two Ls go ahead and prove you deny reality. You'll get nowhere with me or math by claiming that that depends on the current state of the Matrix or that in some other dimension two Ls are more like four and that directly effects our world,,somehow,,,probably,,,anythings possible,,,,we can never be sure.

In the attempt to prove God reality MUST be designated subjective to "spiritual reality" maybe?

"A very narrow view, and very limited."
Reality has perimeters, Fantasia has no borders but reality does.

"Your entire knowledge base hinges upon things having always been the same as they are right this moment."

The opposite of evolution which at it's simpliest, absolutely proven claim says "Things change over time and successive generations."

"Nor can evolution explain anything"

Well, I'm afraid that when you have the pure & unevolved strain of Flavobacterium, and give it nothing but Nylon as a growth medium, it can evolve to digest that purely man-made material which didn't exist until the early-mid 20th Century, then if it can be replicated relatively easily enough, then what that example explains is the least of your problems.

As in If Cre(a)ti(o)nism states that all organic lifeforms were simply 'poofed' into being, as is, unchanging, then Flavobacterium - which existed before humans - can change to digest a material which didn't exist before the 20th Century, never mind thousands of years ago, completely annihilates Cre(a)ti(o)nism.

So no: Your entire knowledge base hinges upon things having always been the same as they are right this moment.

Like I say: can be replicated:

Your call, o Cre(a)ti(o)nists. And that's before I say two words: Richard Lenski.

No 'faith' required. 'Faith', and in a fairytale: the Bible. A very narrow view, and very limited, indeed. You said it, I didn't.

Moral: 'Faith'. Sounds just like FAIL.
