You so confused, now you think you are me. Seems to me that humans growing wings was your example.

Maybe I, like the Evolution Fact, use too many words and thus confuse you.
You obfuscate your own obfuscations. That is your right. But your belief in a theory that is full of holes is just plain ignorant. Where are the transitions NOW? You never answer this. There should be countless transitions everywhere.

That's why one does not treat it like a god.

It answers a lot of questions and it answers most of them correctly which is actually the opposite of your system.

Sure it can, too bad the explanations are mostly shit.

You worship science as a god. The final explainer of everything. You put all of your FAITH in science. Even voodoo science like evolution theory.

I love science and use it all time. My religion is informed by science and my science is informed by my religion. It is more informed than one who chooses to accept one or the other. That is impractical.

Remember: God IS the Quantum Mechanic.

No, choosing science is practical.
