  When is a theory 'just a theory'?

  the titles of cofty's excellent recent posts are all preceeded by the words "evolution is a fact...".

  richard dawkins is encouraging people to use the term 'fact' in relation to evolution, especially when debating with creationists as the word 'theory' is confusing to many, and the latter often takes the discussion off on an often unproductive tangent.

  the following may be of interest, it's from the bbc website - part of a regular series of articles called 'the vocabularist', discussing the origin and meaning of words: .

  Cofty, whilst its true that many scientists believe in evolution as you would have us accept. Just google "Do all Scientists Believe in Evolution"? Whilst its also true you can dig out most information to back up academic articles. This is not cast in iron. Points 1 & 2 on your critique are absolute truths. Point 3 is not. You are coming across as full of your own self importance.

  @ HB. A theory is just a theory. Evolution is theory. Faith can be put in the same category. Belief in a superior being takes just as much faith as believing in evolution.

  Now, moving on to facts and absolute truths. There is no grey areas, no space for interpretation or perspective. No semantics to appear superior or put others down. Even if that was not ones intention.

  Good post. Thanks

  today is the end of my son's 3 -1/2 year treatment for leukemia.

  we had a small party at the hospital with nursing staff and a few friends.

  it has been a great day with the exception of getting walking pnemonia from his sister.

  pandorasbox1914....for me it would have to be the Mahna Mahna song from the muppet show. And right at the last minute I think one of the muppets runs back just as the group go out the door and say mahna mahna one last time.

  Hi Sanchy, welcome. The only thing I can identify alongside you is the shedding of many tears and sleepless nights. Take care buddy! As others more qualified to advise you will be along shortly, take your time. If you're strong enough mentally, fake it till you make it.

  Pandora's Box is now open!

  hi everyone, i have been lurking for some time now and decided to open the box (hence pandora).

  about a year ago i became aware of child abuse within the org, out of curiosity (just like pandora) i opened the box and the evils have been pouring out ever since regarding the org.

  anyway, this came to a head last summer with the arc.
