If you've spent any time within the creation/evolution debate, I'm sure you've heard the word "science" used in statements such as the following (click to expand):
This one is utterly ridiculous. It's almost too ignorant to respond to other than to point out that it's obviously a ploy used by evolutionists capitalizing on people's ignorance of what is "scientific".
The irony is that part of our rejection of evolution is because of science! Also there are professional secular scientists today that reject neo-Darwinism for scientific reasons.
There's a difference between "Scientific statements" and "Statements by scientists"
Statements like these above are common misunderstandings by individuals unfamiliar with how science works, it's limitations, the basic understanding that all scientific evidence needs to be interpreted, and that interpretations are effected by ones worldview.
Creationists can equally say that scientific evidence indicates that the earth, and the solar system cannot be billions of years old.
There's no such thing. This one is certainly too absurd to respond to.
Whenever you hear a aka. Evolutionary Creationists Theistic Evolutionists make this statement pay close attention and you'll see what they REALLY mean: "Merging faith and scientific consensus". And by that they mean merging faith with the methodological naturalism that is neo-Darwinism. They are equivocating that with the term "science".
Statements like these made by TEs are prime examples of why I'm writing this article: "Define science".
My reply: Define "science"!
It's easy to correct these sentences. Replace each occurrence of "science" with naturalism (except of course for the very last one!).
