This reminds me of the intimidation that scientists run into in other
areas such as Intelligent Design or even in any criticism of Darwinism.
You'd better toe the line, or else.
Ain't that just the ****s Gus. I keep trying to push my geocentric
theory and nobody buys it. They keep trying to intimidate me into
believing that
The earth goes around the sun
There ain't no phlogiston
The world wasn't made in a week
It wasn't made a couple thousand years ago
And ID is creationism and they're both religion.
Just a crying shame, eh? I suggest that you restrict
yourself to doctors that believe in the 4 humour theory
and bleed you with leeches the next time you get sick.
Hey, those are theories too.

Greetings Jim,
I heard a fellow say something that really drove home his point. The
theory of evolution is just a theory. The theory of gravitation is
also just a theory. Both have changed as time goes on. Yet even though
the theory of gravitation is just a theory gravity itself is a fact.
We are just trying to find something to explain all the observations.
It's implied by calling something a theory that it's not also a fact.
Evolution in our recorded history is a fact. I suppose that someone
can argue that humans have not evolved in recorded history, but many
short lived organisms have evolved in just the last few years. I
wonder if the descendants of the survivors of the black death would
have a lower death rate that the population in general if exposed to
the black death today.
