- Can Creationists Be Scientists?No because a science denier could never be real scientist.Evolution by natural selection and genetic drift is the strongest fact of science and it’s the foundation of biology. A biologist would have to be a biology denier to be a creationist. Biology deniers are not real scientists. In any case they only exist at Bible colleges. They have never contributed anything important to biology.Evolution deniers deny the established truth of evolution because they know absolutely nothing about it. They don’t understand natural selection and they are not even aware of the massive evidence for it. They could educate themselves but they are so convinced everything is magic they don’t bother to study science. It’s called willful ignorance.
- “their belief in evolution”You don’t get it. If an idea has tons of evidence then belief is not required. Several branches of science all confirm evolution. I have read 5 books on the subject. There is so much evidence for evolution there was virtually no overlap. The 5 books explained different evidences for evolution, and all that is still a small fraction of the massive evidence that grows every day.
- “Consider Isaac Newton” who died long before Mr. Darwin was born. Mr. Newton was brilliant. Most certainly if he lived today he would totally accept the overwhelming evidence for evolution.
- “Today as well, there are many Ph.D. scientists who reject evolution and instead believe that God created in six days as recorded in Scripture.”How many of these science deniers are biologists and what did they contribute to biology? You are being a bit dishonest about scientists. It’s virtually impossible to find a real biologist who denies the foundation of biology.https://manifoldmercies.wordpress.com/2015/10/05/can-creationists-be-scientists/
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
