But, Ed, scientists don't all agree with each other. You're talking as if they did. I'll give you an example: a scientist named Alfred Wegener was one of the first, perhaps THE first to grasp the idea of continental drift and propose it as a theory in 1915. He was ridiculed, scorned, laughed at, and utterly rejected by virtually the entire authoritative science community of his day...although he eventually turned out to be right!

It wasn't until 1950, some time after Wegener's death, that Wegener's theory was proven through observations made with instruments and observation methods that didn't exist yet when he proposed the theory.

He was right. Virtually the entire science community of his day was wrong. And they made him a laughing stock.

Keep that in mind, Ed. An entire ruling science establishment can be wrong about something fundamental, they frequently have been in the past, and it is up to the independent minds IN the science community and out of it to keep that in mind...realize that present day science might not have ALL the answers...and listen with respect and attention to the few voices that deviate from the common herd, as it were, because those voices are sometimes right.

Note that I am not speaking anywhere above about the authority of "God", the bible, or anything else like that. I am speaking about the pride, arrogance, complacency and fallibility of men in high places, including men of science.
