Thanks for the tip. I found a link to God's Debri for free. I'm about 75% finished reading it and came across this quote:
"If you spend your time arguing about the faultiness of other people’s opinions, you waste your time and theirs. The only thing that can be useful is examining the differences in your assumptions and adding to each other’s information. Sometimes
that is enough to make viewpoints converge over time.” (P. 110)
That is what I think the evolution and creation scientists should do, which I tried to explain here, but didn't seem to make much progress in the discussion. He says it much better than I did.
Instead being flexible with assumptions, scientific dogmatism prevails. Scientists debate the conclusions more than examine the assumptions. Each side is unwilling to be flexible in what the assumptions "could" be. The dogmatism is a waste of human energy and time.
There are other very interesting ideas in the book, a few I have already considered, but many I have not considered. Thanks.
Here's the link:
