[quote name='Clak']As far as evolution being a settled science, it's as settled as any science ever is.[/quote]
When I say "settled," I mean that there's room for refinement, growth, and improvement in our understanding of its dynamics and how it works. As for whether it is "settled" meaning "there are alternative, competing scientific explanations," that's not something I would call into question at all.
winner winner chicken dinner. "god created it" is the height of incuriosity.
"in' magnets; how do they work?" generates more curiosity than creationist proponents.

That's why I think religion is so sad, it doesn't breed curiosity. If you think god created everything, you stop looking for answers, or the answers you find are erroneously attributed back to that god. It's why I can't take any scientist seriously, doctor or not, if they're telling me creationism has equal footing to any science. Because if they truly believe that, they are a shame to their field and should be told so. it would be no different than a sociologist agreeing that poverty is caused not by any sort of in-bult discrimination or other societal factors, but because people are just lazy and need to get a job. It's lazy, and I expect better than that from experts in a field.
