Well, your adherence to evolution also mandates specific beliefs so you are coming over as a complete hypocrite. You have to pretend that the scientific community is not biased and that simply being good at one's job means that one is correct. I acknowledge that scripture testifies about satanic deception and that the wisdom of this world is not on par with the wisdom of God. Why shouldn't I?River Jordan said:Your adherence to young-earth creationism mandates specific beliefs. You have to believe that the scientific community is inherently biased and has an agenda, is extremely bad at their jobs, is under some sort of satanic delusion, or a combination of all three. What other explanation do you have for the fact that the world's scientific community has rejected YEC for the last two centuries?
And?And again, no one said peer review was perfect. But it's obviously the best method we have for reducing bias and spotting errors in scientific work....because it works. I mean, just about everything around us today is a product of peer-reviewed science.
I have already dealt with you eggagerated misrepresentation of what I said, so why reapeat your folly?
I didn't say I thought it should be changed. You seem to be an expert att spitting out strawmen.I wonder just how you think it should be changed though. How do you envision the peer-review process going under your preferred scenario? Should scientists check all their results against the Bible? If so, whose interpretation of the Bible? Yours? Mine? Ken Ham's? Francis Collins'? The Pope's?
In any case, people who believe that the scientific comunity dictates a stronger truth thant scripture will make that choice with or without peer review. If you don't want to check your results agains the Bible then that is YOUR choice.
And as I pointed out before, YOU are depending on human interpretation ALL THE TIME! Don't pretend that you don't, because you will only make a complete fool of yourself.
I also find it completely LAUGHABLE that someone who interprets the word "let" as being evidence of evolution in the Bible can utter a single word around here about biblical interpretation!
