>>Both sides are basing their worldview on faith. But only one side admits it.<<

Philosophy is always the last refuge of the sophomoric. If I were to tell you that The Theory of Gravity is less understood than TToE, I am willing to bet you would say otherwise because you see things fall.

I assume (heh — get it?) that you don’t use medications because they are based on “faith.” Right?

“If I were to tell you that The Theory of Gravity is less understood than TToE”

I call B.S. on this.

The Theory of Gravity can be tested and observed under controlled conditions.

You can’t say that about the TOE. You can’t test for one-time historical events. The only testing that is used as evidence for the TOE is observable experiments that show adaptation. But adaptation and the TOE are not the same thing. There is no observable test which can be used as evidence for the TOE because it supposedly takes so long for the mutations to create (oops! I shouldn’t use that word, should I?) a new species.
