I didn't say that because many major scientists believed in Creationism that it proved Creationism is real. I was merely pointing out that being a scientist does not mean one is not a Creationist, and that all scientists are not evolutionists.
If someone uses the Bible to justify racism, they are making up things since racism isn't in the Bible. However, if someone uses evolution to fuel their racism, well, that is what evolution is based upon. It surely isn't built upon science.
Evolution has never been proven. Even evolutionists will tell you that.

False from beginning to end. Many major scientist are not cretinists. Cretinism is not real, and it's definitely not science. It's just mythology.
Sure, all scientists are not "evolutionists", there might be one or two that does not accept reality as fact. Ben Carson, for example, and Mike Behe.
No, there is no racism in evolution. It's just adaptation to the environment, through random mutations and natural selection.
Evolution is proven every single day in laboratories. Not that that is what they are working on, as real scientists know that it was settled about 150 years ago, and they are now USING evolution in their scientific work. Which shows, time and time again, that evolution is a fact.
> all scientists are not evolutionists.
"All x are not y" <-- what this person said.
In addition to not knowing how science works, this idiot doesn't know how language works.

But he was talking about those scientists IN RESPONSE TO SOMEONE ASKING HIM FOR EVIDENCE FOR CREATIONISM! So, I guess he's actually admitting there is no evidence.

This is a guy who supposedly has a degree in science (but won't tell me what field it is in), yet he doesn't know that scientists don't do "proof" in the first place. Oh, and his idea of "evolutionists telling you that" is just the usual quote-mining.

Yes you did. Creationists love using the appeal to authority fallacy.

But how many of those scientists working in biology or paleontology are creationists? Seems like the list of "700 scientists who reject evolution" are people who work in fields which don't deal with biology or evolution. And I'm sure many of them are "creation scientists" with fake degrees.

Christian racists often use the curse of Ham to justify their racism.

Evolution is not based upon racism. It doesn't say that one race is better than another. Just more slander from the creationists.

Except for the mountains of evidence which shows that evolution is a very real thing.
No, evolutionary theory has never been proven. It is, however, the best theory we have for the obsevations collected so far.
Gravitational theory has never been proven, it's just the best theory we have for the observations collected so far.
You can play this game all day long. Scientific theories are never proven, all of them remain theories, waiting to be falsified, or tweaked, or supplanted by better theories.
So your objection is about as significant as saying that no one's found the end of pi. True, but not important...
Are you fucking kidding me? Of course evolution has been proven. Any two-bit hack can prove evolution works as a self-review system. Between mathematical probability models and software simulations of genetically driven systems, it's clear that evolution produces more fit individuals over time when there are genetic forces driving them. And since we are driven by genetic systems, we evolve.

It is a magnificent testimony to the evolution of humankind
-Dr Buzz Aldrin
And he - talking about the Moon landings - got his Ph. D from MIT. His unique perspective on things in 1969
Michael Behe: 'cdesign proponentsists'. And he is a Professor of Biochemistry.
Someone who went way above his head. And a Conservative Christian who accepts proven scientific fact. So Christian, that he performed the first religious ceremony - taking Communion - on another world.
Reconciling one's faith with proven scientific fact. It's a thing. Just ask he who not only was the second man on the Moon & wore an Omega Speedmaster there: but has met Optimus Prime.
The Trifecta of Awesomeness.
-------"...many major scientists believed in Creationism..."
Citation desperately needed. The number of them is considerably less than one percent of scientists, and that's only if you count in people like meteorologists and pharmacists and others who have no expertise in biology. Creationism is equivalent to saying "magic", and is a conjecture unworthy of thinking adults in the twenty-first century.
------+"Evolution has never been proven. Even evolutionists will tell you that."
Antibiotic-resistant species have been seen to evolve over a period as short as a few weeks. Evolution is the underlying theory of all life on earth, and natural selection is so intuitively obvious that it takes a colossal amount of hubris to deny it. . If it hasn't been "proven", that's because scientists are notoriously conservative (really conservative, not "politically conservative") and always allow an inch of wiggle room for some unforeseen events.
Now you run along and ask god to magic us a unicorn out of dirt, and then we will consider it.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
