[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ultra Magnus: [QB] Actually, I didn't. Well, yes I did. But that is besides the point. Anyway, I've been learning -- ready for it? -- Evolution *gasp* in my Biology class. Both the textbooks, and the teacher are quite quick to point out that evolution is A THEORY, and as such, is subject to the conditions that THEORIES are. Now, in a step by step method, I'll try and conduct my train of thought (I = KING OF THE PUN), regarding this THEORY. 1. I get up and have breakfast. 2. The THEORY of Evolution is just that, a THEORY. According to dictionary.com (Hopefully, a non Left Conspiracy site), the definition of THEORY is: [i]<blockquote>the�o�ry n., pl. the�o�ries. 1.a. Systematically organized knowledge applicable in a relatively wide variety of circumstances, especially a system of assumptions, accepted principles, and rules of procedure devised to analyze, predict, or otherwise explain the nature or behavior of a specified set of phenomena. b.Such knowledge or such a system. 2.Abstract reasoning; speculation. 3.A belief that guides action or assists comprehension or judgment: rose early, on the theory that morning efforts are best; the modern architectural theory that less is more. 4.An assumption based on limited information or knowledge; a conjecture.</blockquote>[/i] 3. In addition, I am of the understanding that one single discrepancy in said theory, causes it to be either A) Disproven or B)Reworked, depending on the severity of the discrepancy. 4. So, If apples stopped falling of trees, apart from the abundance of Doctor house calls, we could either negate or amend the original THEORY of Gravity. 5. Am I okay so far? 6. I go to the bathroom. (The View was just on. Barbara Walters = Hot!) 7. As an example, The THEORY of Evolution is one THEORY of how people and animals and everything came to be. Correct? 8. So is the Bible. 9. Why is the Bible not considered a THEORY? 10. If the Bible is contradicted, it is not dismissed, or reevaluated? I am cononononondrumized. 10. In so far that these two situations could feasibly occur: <u>SITUATION 1:</u> [INT. LAB. DAY] CUT TO: SCIENTIST: "Dinosaurs evolved into Birds" HOT ANCHOR LADY FROM CNN: "Fossils found today indicate that Dinosaurs and birds coexisted." SCIENTIST: "Hmm. I do believe I must rethink my position. Ngoyen hoymen yamen flaven." <u>SITUATION 2:</u> [INT. CHURCH. DAY.] JUMP CUT TO PREACHER(NOT THE COMIC BOOK CHARACTER): "And, because the Lord said it is so, the World is only 4000 years old." HOT ANCHOR LADY FROM CNN: "Geological Formations found today indicate that the world is 650,000,000 years old." PREACHER(NTCBC): "That is created by Scientists, and has no basis in God's world. They do not have faith. The Bible is correct." 11. I don't understand. [/QB][/QUOTE]
