This misrepresents the article. First, they found *another* link, not "the" link as if this fossil is the one-and-only bit of evidence linking fish to land animals. Second, you have absolutely no basis for presuming that the scientists involved were "secular". For all you (or we) know, they could easily be Christian, Jewish, or of some other faith. There are vast numbers of scientists who are also believers. Your presumption that any scientist finding any evidence of evolution must necessarily be "secularist" says much about your prejudices on this topic.
I was mocked and patronized by a few FReepers.
Not surprisingly, given some of your comments on that thread, such as:
"A real scientist knows that we don't know anything about anything..."Those are extreme and hyperbolic enough that they practically invite a good mocking. If you were under the impression that you were "mocked and patronized" merely for the fact that you are a believer, however, you are quite mistaken."I have one source for you. The Bible. Read it, and you won't need to read anymore."
"One thing I have learned as a critical thinking person is humans know absolutelty nothing."
"All theories and scientific truths have been proven false all through history..."
A couple people eluded that I couldn't believe in both the Bible and science!
No, they did not. I recall no such posts on that thread, and indeed I just now went back and reread all of your posts and all the posts to you on that thread. There was no such statement or implication made.
I was shocked to find out I had been wrong all my life (sarcasm, last sentence).
Oh... So you mean you weren't shocked to find that out?
