I contend that Darwinism is also non-falsifiable. Any evidence contrary to the dogma will be marginalized and ridiculed.

This is a contradiction.

"If she thinks creationists are rude and unkind..."

Then assertions such as "they are chronic mysoginists" would prove her right?

As you wish. I contend that Darwinism is also non-falsifiable.

You said something else as well.

Yes, and it was still a contention not a proof. BTW, you contradicted your reply.

AndrewC: I contend that Darwinism is also non-falsifiable. Any evidence contrary to the dogma will be marginalized and ridiculed.

Me: This is a contradiction.

Yes you made that statement. And what you were replying to was a contention.

Yeah, it does kind of read like the beginning of a Literotica story...

Statement one - I contend that Darwinism is also non-falsifiable. (a contention that includes the word contend)

Statement two - Any evidence contrary to the dogma will be marginalized and ridiculed. (another contention which does not include the word contend).

AIG gave the impression that Dr. Schweitzer was essentially scooping raw marrow out of a fossil femur with a spoon.

I don't know if it was AIG, but I distinctly remember hearing the words "hamburger meat" being thrown about...

"Any evidence contrary to the dogma will be marginalized and ridiculed."

If there exists evidence that is contrary to what the ToE says then it can't be unfalsifiable, by definition.

I don't use the term "heathen". I prefer atheist.

You might want to rethink that...

Your second statement did not include the word contend. Agreed.

Sorry if you failed basic logic, but my statement is correct. You can't say that evolution is both unfalsifiable AND that evidence exists that goes against it.

Possibly you've heard that Hebrew is/was the most highly-evolved of all known languages?

What makes one language more evolved than another?
