Quotes

We have electricity, the internal combustion engine, the internet, antibiotics and we’ve put men on the moon. All examples, and there are many more, where science has got it right. To think that in the single case of evolution, science has got it wrong, is very strange indeed. - a comment to Evolution: A Fairy Tale For Grownups


Science got all these things right because of the rigorous process - scientific method. From Wikipedia; Scientific method refers to bodies of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on gathering observable, empirical and measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning. A scientific method consists of the collection of data through observation and experimentation, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses.

Intelligent design / creationism fails the scientific method test and it only integrates with the bible.
