Not trying, already tried and done.
One of the things I know from personal experience about Phd's:
I have a son in law who has the same Phd as that scientist in Jerusalem, which is described as a 'bio physicist'. The real name for that branch of science is Statistical Physics.
Not that that name change means anything but I thought I would point t o fit his hypothesis.
That is the difference between a real scientist and a charlatan.
This and other statements give me the impression that he was being discrimminated against because he was going against the establisment. This has been the common reaction against any scientist who expresses any doubt about the evolutionary theory. They don't want it questioned and that is why they fight hard to prevent any alternate ideas or doubts being taught to students. There seems to me no freedom in science to do research on anything contrary to evolution.
Bill Gates dropped out of college but has done better than all those that graduated in his class.

No matter what it took. Sloppy science, deliberate agenda. No wonder they wouldn't let him in a real university.

Originally posted by RJHindsSloppy science is just that, sloppy science. You come in with an agenda, right off the top that is not science, that is just being political. You want to prove a point no matter the cost to your reputation. He has no reputation now, having been shown to be the charlatan he is.

If he had been more vigorous in his science, he would have figured out long ago his line of 'reasoning' was no good. But instead, he continues to cling desperately to his long ago refuted assertions.
Did you read about my recent experience with the two Phd's I work with on a daily basis? I know from where I speak about due diligence, Keith covers all the bases, does not have an agenda going in and we are developing a new technological process by NOT doing sloppy science.

Originally posted by sonhouseyeah, and all the medicinal advances we made based on evolutionary theory in practice were actually prayers being answered by bog.
So it's a vast conspiracy then. Thousands of scientists, geologists, anthropologists, mathematicians, all in a secret cabal, all atheists, in a secret war on christianity.
