Again, the discussion section is the section in which personal interpretation and OPINION can be addressed. The discussion section isn’t the place for new data. You’re trying to straw man this.

It would indeed show a bias, as other opinions are allowed in discussion sections.

Your sense of logic might not be the same as someone else’s. If someone thinks that order means god, then it follows logically that the discussion suggests a creator.

Here’s yet another source which says the same thing: “The purpose of the Discussion is to state your interpretations and opinions, explain the implications of your findings, and make suggestions for future research...”

As I’ve actually pointed out to these idiots, I’m not religious. I do not believe in any god. I just have no tolerance for bigotry, and that includes bigotry against religion.

Again, there was no failure. The only reason people are perceiving it as a failure was because the opinion was a god claim, rather than some other claim.

> Please provide the evidence you have that you have ‘far more formal education in science.’

Respond to my point, or stop replying.

Maybe. And scientists are biased. They’re human after all.

I’ve seen a fair amount of bigotry against religion in the comments here. I have to wonder if there are no mods here, or if they are just complicit in the religiophobic bigotry being spewed on this site.

Yes; you are religiophobic. You have a bigoted view of religion, and also a narrow one. And yet your bigotry is considered accetpable.

Again, you have said nothing which actually speaks to my discussion on the topic. You have done nothing but harass me.

No. You made the claim. It’s on you to support your claim. Regardless, you have not actually done anything to contradict the claim that I made, and the evidence that I provided to back it up.

Unless you are willing to actually prove that you have these degrees, your claims are meaningless.

Sure. But that’s fine. The discussion section allows for personal interpretation. That’s why it’s not a good idea to cite the discussion section of a paper.

Evolution contradicts a creator, which created everything, as it is today. It does not contradict a creator.
