“50 years ago most scientists supported evolution but with new discoveries but the tide appears to be turning.”
Betcha the actual numbers don’t support this bullshit.
"In the last 10 years there have been many scientists criticizing evolution.”
And every year, how many scientists graduate with no quibble about evolution?
“ I recently read a good book by a professor of Biochemistry called “Darwin’s Black Box” which attempts to disprove evolution.”
Behe, right? He testified at Dover. On the side that lost. IIRC, Behe has never been able to establish evidence for his claims of irreducible complexity.
“Even one of the leading atheists in the UK now believes in a creator”
Ah, jeez. Evolution is not an atheist theory. It’s science and people who study the evidence tend to accept it, even the Christains and Muslims in the field.
Are you referring to Flew, maybe? Lots of questions about this ‘conversion.’ He’s old, he’s not publishing any more, and he was left alone with an unscrupulous creationist (if that’s not redundant).
To paraphrase Ebenezer Scrooge, “There’s more underdone potato than science to this conversion.”
I frankly never HEARD of Flew until the creationists started telling me that ‘my hero’ had become Christain, when it was really more of a fuzzy deist.
"If Christians did not accept evolution 50 years ago when science was against them, why would they ever accept it now, with new discoveries in physics, biochemistry, and genetics, giving more support to a creator every day.”
Liar, liar, pants on fire.
Science is purely naturalistic by its very nature. It CANNOT come to a conclusion that magic was responsible, or anything supernatural.
So even if there are all these discoveries in these sciences, SCIENCE cannot say ‘God did it.’
Science can say ‘Gravity’ or ‘hyperinflated quantum averaging affect’ or ‘we don’t know.’ It won’t actually say, ‘God.’
