In the above article, 'scientist' Brian Thomas makes an attempt
to refute the work of an evolutionist professor, while blatantly
disregarding each one of the six principles of scientific
thinking. Here's how he does it: Mr. Thomas does not rule out
rival hypotheses, he simply refutes those of a professor that he
doesn't agree with. He asserts his views of how humans came to
be, which shows his very evident confirmation bias. In one
example, Thomas says that humans and apes have 700 million
genetic differences, which he views as a cause for the
creationist view. What he neglects to mention is how many traits
we do have in common. Upon further research in the same Oxford
journal that Thomas references (located at http://goo.gl/RrDE4),
I learned that 700 million is only 23 percent of genetic traits.
That means that we share a whopping 77 percent of our traits
with chimpanzees. Thomas was too lazy to do simple math, and did
not take into account that correlation isn't necessarily
causation. Falsifiability, Replic
