> dhw: [i]Yes, you and Dawkins both hope that your diametrically opposite interpretations of the scientific facts will prove to be right, even though you yourself actually acknowledge that we shall never know! My point is that neither of you can claim that your blind faith is based on science.[/i] […]
> 
> DAVID: [i]I understand that your bottom is completely stuck on the points of your personal picket fence. But I had a reasonable thought conversion from agnosticism discovering factual science about evolution and other considerations. I found evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. I went where the evidence took me. Could your brain be stuck also?   As for Dawkins, he has a blind eye to the evidence in front of his nose, as presented by ID.[/i]

> According to you, “[b]the way life evolved won’t ever be found by humans[/b]”, but you are a human, you have a theory, you think that any doubt is unreasonable, and you hope you are right. Your bottom is stuck on the points of your personal theory. Dawkins is a human, he has a theory, he reckons your theory is a delusion, and he hopes his theory is right. His bottom is stuck on the points of his personal theory. I am a human, I see what I consider to be reasonable doubts about both theories, I acknowledge that the truth “won’t ever be found by humans”, and I keep an open mind. My bottom is stuck on the point that you, Dawkins and I are humans who will never know the truth. Fair summary?
