Another thread where we might see “Science is stupid” again?

Not “science”, just some “scientists”

[GodGunsGuts]

Only Temple of Darwin fanatics think science is stupid...for falsifying their religion.

Stupid would be correctable but biased, self important, dishonest, willfully obtuse and full of its self in the practice of science is much more difficult to deal with.

Unfortunately that is becoming ever more common and failure to recognize or defending it means science as a whole becomes less trustworthy.

Need examples?

Science isn't stupid. Sience is simply a set of methods for investigating the world around us. This whole "debate"(sic) is becoming quite tiresome. No reasonable man would expect that Darwin, making the best guesses he could with 19th century knowledge, would have the final answers. Ditto Watson and Crick 40 years ago.

Studies of the physiology of the body shows plainly that there are inefficiencies and leftover adaptations which could have been designed better by a competent fluids engineer. So the probablility that pieces of DNA have been bypassed means little as to the ultimate question.
