Let me get this straight, you are in favor of using the Bible as the standard for “proving” scientific fraud? You’re going to need larger prisons or a new standard for capital punishment for more “crimes”? I’ve worked in the mining industry for some 40 years and lived in mining towns from birth until about 20 years ago when I moved to a mixed industrial community. In all that time I’ve never met even one geologist, mining engineer or metallurgist who doubted deep time as evidenced in the ore bodies where they worked. I further never met one who expressed doubt about evolution. I guess we would all be in serious trouble in your utopia.

Twisting my words again - I don’t think utopia is possible in this world nor would I dare to presume using the Bible solely for detecting scientific fraud.

But if something directly contradicts the Bible then I, for one, will heavily scrutinize the topic and related research. And it should never be for the government to fund and choose winners and losers for anything so highly controverted.

Also due to consensus thinking, anyone who doubted the evolution narrative would be highly unlikely to remain in any geologic discipline while openly voicing their concerns. They’d either keep it to themselves or find another line of work. Or speak up and wait for their peers to have them removed from the job.
