The Black Cat Analogy

111. You have not told me anything I did not already know.

Except for the statement that evolution is quite well documented...I take issue with that.
If you through a net into the sea and drag out some fish you have not well documented the life in the sea.
But it is even worse than that with evolution because you are not only dealing with the immensity of the world but the immensity of time as well...and it completely eliminates any anomalous happenings....like great floods and rapid change in the earth crust...
For instance the Grand Canyon is said to have taken millions of years to make as the river eroded it...but that time cold be wrong completely because it is calculated on steady state erosion...one inch every 100 years and you got the time.
But that could be wrong if there was an inland sea...like we know there was...and it flowed out to the Gulf in just a matter of a few years because of a great earthquake...But that is crazy though right?....because we KNOW that there are never any big events like that, and our evidence is that we have never seen them in our very short time recording them and so they can't be true.
And you will say there is no evidence of this...but that is not exactly true...there is Homer and his story of Atlantis...and the biblical flood...and in every culture all around the world stories of a great calamity and a flood.....so then it must be qualified by saying credible evidence...and that evidence can't be credible because you already believe it could never happen...
And that is how dogma clouds science.
