Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,... Romans 1:22
"Paul Braterman, emeritus professor of chemistry at the University of
Glasgow, recently claimed online that creationism “meets all the
criteria” for a “conspiracy theory.”
He says creationism offers “a
complete parallel universe with its own organisations and rules of
evidence.”
.... we should note that calling someone a “conspiracy theorist” is a quick and easy way to avoid having to deal with the intellectual arguments for his position.
.... we should note that calling someone a “conspiracy theorist” is a quick and easy way to avoid having to deal with the intellectual arguments for his position.
He claims creationism is a “deep-seated power struggle” between
religious conservatives and liberals, suggesting that creationists don’t
really believe what we profess.
The entire essay is basically a giant ad hominem attack on
creationists. It is instructive that this essay doesn’t attempt to
answer creationists with any scientific evidence for evolution. Perhaps
that’s because there isn’t any." ICR
