Just like falling is a fact and gravity is a theory that describes why you fall, organisms evolving and speciating are facts and the theory of evolution explains why. If you are willing to deny evolution, why not gravity, germs, atoms, electricity, etc. They are all theories too.

ReplyDeleteScience is ... well, irrefutable.
People are so weird sometimes ...
I wouldn't say science is irrefutable, it's just a collection of ideas that have thus not been refuted. In fact, I would go so far as to say that what makes science great is that it has the framework that makes refutation possible, so that truth is the ultimate aim, rather than tradition.
