Sure it does. Where the Darwin theory has no answer is how did life get started. It picks up at the point of there being life but how did life get started. Can you answer that?

Yes, everyone knows this. :^)

You still don't understand what the word "theory" means in a scientific context.

Second, those "theories" are not guesses
Who's claiming they are? :confused: Are you responding to someone else's thread perhaps?

when was the last time you saw a group of scientists campaigning to have science taught in churches, temples and mosques?
1. Why would they? As far as I know churches teach about God and about how to love and serve one another. What does science have to do with any of that? 2. Science is taught in church schools. :doh:

This is the Soapbox where you CAN discuss religion. But I have no idea what you are going on about. Most of what you said made no sense.

You're missing the point. Science isn't taught in church, so why should anyone put up with attempts to teach religion in a science lesson?
RyanDev wrote:

The key word there being "schools". If you'd actually read what I wrote, you'd have noticed that I made no mention of church schools.

No, I can't. And it's a very good question. However, "god done it" is not an answer. It's a cop-out.

OK. :^) I've never heard anyone try to claim they were. So, do you have any points or are you just going to keep showing how you don't have a clue about anything I say? Your bigotry is starting to show through. You make false claims about what I said or what I believe. Or perhaps just a troll? :^)

How? :confused: As I read it, your point was that "creationism and evolution have the same amount of evidence" (ie: none). I pointed you to one of many links discussing the evidence supporting evolution. You responded by asking me whether evolution could answer a question which it doesn't even attempt to answer. How does that then prove that the evidence for evolution doesn't exist?

What? You're saying I think there is no evidence to support creationism or to support evolution? OK. I'm done with you. You keep making things up. It's impossible to get anywhere with you because I constantly have to keep correcting your viewpoints about me.

As you have repeatedly stated, you feel that scientific theories are just a belief system with no supporting evidence. As anyone with half a brain could discover with 10 minutes of research, that's utter nonsense. Therefore, one of two things is true: either you don't understand what the word "theory" means in a scientific context; or you're deliberately posting ludicrous statements in an attempt to troll this forum. I chose to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume the former explanation was correct. Am I wrong?

42,000 Schools in India Will Soon Teach That Stem Cell Research, Cars, and TVs Were Inspired by Ancient Texts[^]
Published by the Gujarat State School Textbook Board (GSSTB), the book seeks to teach children "facts" about history, science, geography, religion and other "basics".
The "facts" in this book all state that various scientific discoveries were based on religious teachings rather than science.

That is a direct quote from your previous post. Are you going to deny that you wrote that? And since creationism has precisely zero scientific evidence to support it, then you're clearly claiming that Darwin's theory of natural selection also has no supporting scientific evidence.

OK, if you don't like the word referring to the Middle Ages: What rigorous scientific evidence do you have to support your ancient / archaic / Stone-Age / really bloody old (delete as appropriate) creation story? And, indeed, which creation story[^] do you support?

not worth it - Ryan believes fossils were planted by some alien and all humans lived on another planet before deciding to pop down to Earth (I apologise unreservedly if I have misunderstood his previous posts). he argues that because you can't prove something to be untrue, it's reasonable to believe it Next he'll be saying that VB 6 is a great programming language and Silverlight is the way of the future!

where fiction is taught as fact and mythical beliefs override what academic scholars say.
We've always taught scientific theories in school. There's a reason theories are still theories, they aren't facts, at least not as far as we know.

You actually have that the wrong way around. A scientific theory is a fact as far as we know. In fact, that's a very good, succinct, definition of a scientific theory!
