The L-O-L of the year probably......read below how a group of researchers from China (likely atheists) & Massachusetts are honest about the DESIGN of the human hand. And then watch the other atheistic "scientists" MELTDOWN...LOL........enjoy!!!
Here is a tweet with a name angry atheists are calling this situation..."
"A recent scientific paper on the movement of the human hand has faced strong criticism for referring to a 'Creator' throughout.
The paper, titled: 'Biomechanical characteristics of hand coordination in grasping activities of daily living' was written by a
team of four researchers, three from Huazhong University in China, and one from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts.
Published in the PLOS ONE journal, the fairly conventional study looked at the mechanics of how we grasp things, and involved the measurement of the hand movements of 30 participants.
However, members of the scientific community have demanded the paper be retracted, for its several perceived references to the pseudoscientific theory of intelligent design and a possibly divine 'Creator'.
In the opening sentences of the study, it claims the link between muscles and hand movements is the product of "proper design by the Creator."
Later, it says human hand coordination "should indicate the mystery of the Creator's invention," and concludes by again claiming the mechanical architecture of the hand is the result of "proper design by the Creator."
......many people, including researchers who work as editors for the publication, are now calling for it to be retracted.
Some scientists said the journal should be boycotted unless amends are made.
Commenting below the study, the journal's staff apologised that the language referring to a 'Creator' was not addressed during the paper's evaluation.
They also said they were "looking into" the concerns raised, and would "take steps" to correct the published article."

remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.
