I forced myself to watch “Ancient Aliens” a couple of nights on the McHistory channel.
What an astoundingly humongous pile of horses**t. How do those people keep straight faces?

Wrong, many theories spring from the imagination.

We're not talking about mythology.

And neither are we.

I watched “ the Privaledged Planet as I said I would. Really good. Pretty much explains that there Is a “CREATOR “.

Where did you see it, on the McHistory channel?

So true!!!

What exactly are you calling l*****t pseudo-science?

straightUp Loc: California

I've always been able to find the scientific holes in the efforts people make to validate the biblical claims.

Intelligent Design in my opinion is an arrangement of partial models, big words and a heavy reliance on the lack of imagination in the audience - by that I mean their inability to fathom the expanse of time and space that allows the improbable. They feel more comfortable with something closer to the human capacity, as if the universe was intentionally baked like a cake in 30 minutes.

I'll watch the Privileged Planet though - I haven't seen it yet.

Ironically it takes a much greater leap of faith to believe something was created from nothing and all of life and its complexities evolved from it. Science has guesses based on what they think they know, no more.

So true. For the l*****ts and unbelievers, time = god. Given a few billion years. nearly anything can happen.
Except it can't. Life and creation are so obviously driven by intelligent design. No accidents and no mutations can begin to explain what is other than the simple fact that In the beginning, God created.

God created, and then aliens altered. Then suddenly the lumbering beast had a brain with a slight change in DNA.

Good question! I'm glad you asked.

To begin, let me ask you a question: Do you believe in science?

If you answered 'yes', then the 'science' you believe in is l*****t pseudo-science. Why? Because true science isn't a belief system, it's a tool. I don't 'believe in science' any more than I believe in a hammer, or a gun. Unlike a hammer, gun, or any other physical tool, science is not a physical object but a methodology for determining t***h, or fact.

True science is the use of the scientific method to propose a theory, then develop experiments to test that theory, then reach conclusions based on the results of said experiments.

In l*****t pseudo-science, a theory is developed, then experiments are taylored to give the desired results. Data that doesn't meet expectations is falsified or omitted, normal criteria are changed, and peer review is limited to only other l*****t pseudo-scientists who agree with the original theory. Computer models are written to give the desired results, then those results are used to give credence to the theory. 'Facts' are then determined not by the results of true experimentation, but by 'consensus'. In other words, if enough l*****t pseudo-scientists believe hard enough in a lie, that belief can make it 'true'.

Unfortunately, due to the l*****t takeover of the university systems, today true science has been mostly replaced by l*****t pseudo-science, to the detriment of all but the l*****t pseudo-scientists and the politicians they serve. Since the renaissance true science has benefited society beyond measure, now the l*****t pseudo-scientists have hijacked that honorable profession and bastardized its good reputation and methodology in order to push a l*****t agenda on an unsuspecting and misinformed public.

Wrong, as usual. Sin entered the world and what was originally created as good, became polluted by sin. Aliens weren't involved.
