Sadly, Abderian, you have read what you wanted to read, not what I have written. I did not say that evolutionary scientists were doubting evolution, I said that they had doubts about the mechanisms, and that this demonstrated that the theory is unproven. The standard scientific method is to start from observations, state an hypothesis, derive experiments to test the hypothesis and validate predictions. When has that ever been done for GTE? If the mechanisms are unknown, how can one perform scientific experiments? So many like to claim that the General Theory of Evolution is scientifically proven, but no-one can attest to any scientific experiments that demonstrate that proof.
I am open to believing that GTE is true, it is just that there is no scientific proof. SETI researchers like to believe that alien intelligence exists, but again, there is no scientific proof.
Belief in evolution is faith, because there is no scientific proof for it. If you disagree, offer that proof.
Yes, you've got it right about standard scientific method. Which is why starting from the premise that a book written a few thousand years ago is the litereal truth about the origin of life on this planet is not scientific method.
Peshat Books seeks to challenge secular issues such as evolution on their own merits as genuine scientific theories (or otherwise), to demystify Holy Scripture, and to invite others of a similar mind to join the conversation on alternate interpretations that contend with orthodox Christian beliefs.
Now please stop pretending that you aren't a Creationist who is simply trying to attack evolutionary theory because it contradicts your belief system.
