I guess thats science right? I mean you don’t agree with what the data points to so you hide the data.

Imagine how God feels when scientists cite his work and don't even give Him credit!

Either you BELIEVE we came accidentaly/spontaneously from nothing, or we were created.

Either way, they are both beliefs! Beliefs require faith.

Evolutionism is a religion. You have to believe/have faith in an unproveable theory.

I didn't have him, but he does look familiar. I was there at Brooklyn College a little over 20 years ago.

You wouldn't find too many conservatives there then (or now even).

LOL! The guy’s got plastic covering his fancy clocks, pics and furniture, to keep the bird shit off. I wonder if he wears boots in the house. LOL!

I see that book burning is justified by the hardcore evolutionists. As long as it is for the CAUSE.

They love selective big government as long as it is for the CAUSE, and now they approve and applaud selective book burning. Stalin was more honest.

The hardcore evolutionist's ridiculous talk about objectivity and principles is the cheapest of the cheap. Pure hypocrisy.

Link to Jacobson's original letter here , for whatever it's worth - at least he admits he was personally guilty of "bad science"......

bmflr. I’ve never heard of someone retracting their work except when they found errors. That doesn’t appear to be the case with this finding.

Wow, this is a new one on me. I didn’t even know that you could withdraw a paper after publication (beforehand, yes.)

Usually what happens is that the scientist writes another paper.

So after 52 years, he has retracted it.

So he is admitting he was wrong. Got it.
