From curiosity I searched to find our what College Degree
Charles Darwin earned. What I learned was that he started
out to become a Physician like his father and Grandfather.
However this was not his interest. After dropping out from
medical school, he earned a BA degree in 1831 and a MS degree in
1836 at Christ college at Cambridge. At some time in his life he went
to Oxford where he eared a degree in theology.
There seems to be some confusion regarding his AB degree at Christ
College. Some sources say it Was theology.
Interesting. Thanks for posting.
If Darwin's only degree was theology, how is it that he is
revered as a scientist?
Because he helped formulate a worldview where God
was omitted from origins which was more pleasing to
the increasingly godless society.
If asking stupid questions is a sign of your IQ...
Why did you?
One does not need a degree to be a scientist.
Anyone can be a pseudo-scientist.

Because of Darwin "god was omitted from origins"?

Because of Pasteur "god was omitted from disease"?

Because of Halley "god was omitted from comets"?

Does the discovery of every natural process
require "removing god" from it?

Was there a 'natural process' that Darwin discovered
that wasn't already known by Mendel and others? No.

The "goo to you" story is not a 'natural process'.

Rather it is only a phantasy.

Wrong.

Darwin published his first book on evolution
in 1856. Mendel didn't publish anything until 9
years later, in 1865.

Are you saying Darwin went forward in time,
grabbed Mendel's book, and went back in time to
copy them?

"Creation science" has not entered the curriculum for a reason so
simple and so basic that we often forget to mention it: because it is
false, and because good teachers understand exactly why it is false.
What could be more destructive of that most fragile yet most precious
commodity in our entire intellectual heritage -- good teaching -- than
a bill forcing honourable teachers to sully their sacred trust by
granting equal treatment to a doctrine not only known to be false, but
calculated to undermine any general understanding of science as an
enterprise? - Stephen Jay Gould.

do tell us more about how Obama will not be stepping down,

Sounds fascinating.

That explains his ideas, but it doesn't answer the question.
Therefore I accept this as your concession that there is no

that Darwin was the very first person to discover?
Read his book.
In the meantime back up your claim that it
is based on Mendels book that didn't exist yet.
I note that you cannot answer my simply question,
above.
Just explain how Darwin's theory of evolution
was based on Mendel's work that hadn't even been
published yet.
Not my claim.

From curiosity I searched to find our what College Degree
Charles Darwin earned. What I learned was that he started
out to become a Physician like his father and
Grandfather. However this was not his interest. After
dropping out from medical school, he earned a BA degree
in 1831 and a MS degree in 1836 at Christ college at
Cambridge. At some time in his life he went to Oxford
where he eared a degree in theology.
There seems to be some confusion regarding his AB degree
at Christ College. Some sources say it Was theology.
Interesting. Thanks for posting.
If Darwin's only degree was theology, how is it that he is
revered as a scientist?
Because he helped formulate a worldview where God
was omitted from origins which was more pleasing to
the increasingly godless society.
Because of Darwin "god was omitted from origins"?
Because of Pasteur "god was omitted from disease"?
Because of Halley "god was omitted from comets"?
Does the discovery of every natural process
require "removing god" from it?
Was there a 'natural process' that Darwin discovered
that wasn't already known by Mendel and others? No.
Wrong.
Then tell us, exactly what is this 'natural process'
that Darwin was the very first person to discover?

Before the germ theory, a "miasma theory" held sway.

In neither theory is intervention by a deity required to
explain the spread of diseases.

Uneducated, ghod-obsessed people might believe plagues were
punishments inflicted by some ghod.

In Darwin's time it was hardly an "increasingly godless" society. (Though fans of religion have always, and I mean always, believed they were living in such a society). There were bold "free thinkers" about, but Darwin certainly wasn't one of them, and there were no more of them than in previous centuries.

Of course they knew that. What Darwin saw was that the selection process also operated in nature. He realised that "selective breeding" didn't need a breeder.

life he went to Oxford where he eared a degree in theology.
There seems to be some confusion regarding his AB degree at
Christ College. Some sources say it Was theology.
Interesting. Thanks for posting.
If Darwin's only degree was theology, how is it that he is
revered as a scientist?
Because he helped formulate a worldview where God
was omitted from origins which was more pleasing to
the increasingly godless society.
Because of Darwin "god was omitted from origins"?
Because of Pasteur "god was omitted from disease"?
Because of Halley "god was omitted from comets"?
Does the discovery of every natural process
require "removing god" from it?
Was there a 'natural process' that Darwin discovered
that wasn't already known by Mendel and others? No.
Wrong.
Darwin published his first book on evolution
in 1856. Mendel didn't publish anything until 9
years later, in 1865.
Are you saying Darwin went forward in time,
grabbed Mendel's book, and went back in time to
copy them?
Darwin was aware of Mendels experiments.
The interesting thing is, that if Andrew
don't accept Darwin as a scientist, why
does he accept Mendel as a scientist?

Because Mendel was a Monk, perhaps?

Mendel was involved in empirical, observable
science. Whereas Darwin was involved in a
lot of fantasizing. There is a big difference.

You know nothing about Darwin. Every bit of Darwin's work is based on
observed, recorded, cataloged fact.

The "goo to you" story is not a 'natural process'.

The idea that one couldn't be a scientist without advanced degrees is a very
recent piece of nonsense. Being regarded as a scientist is something earned by
publishing scientific ideas which withstand the test of doubt.

It's well known that Darwin held off publication because he saw the shitstorm
from the God Squad coming. Only when he saw that Wallace was about to beat him
too it did he finally let the primate out of the bag.

What a fucking moron.

Because he was one of the greatest scientists of all time. on a par
with Newton and Einstein.

Duh.

Plenty of scientists are theist, like Ken Miller who demolished
irreducible complexity at the Dover ID trial.

But like other scientists who are theist, he doesn't let his beliefs
interfere with or influence his science.
Post by Andrew

What a fucking moron. A liar as well as an idiot.

He started off as a non-fundamentalist Christian, who accepted the
then current scientific explanations (which weren't particularly
scientific in many cases, certainly not for evolution which had been
known for many decades).

He studied for the ministry because he thought the job of a country
parson would give him the time to pursue his real interests in nature
and geology.

But instead, he went on his voyage of discovery, and what he found led
to his losing his faith.

Natural selection was a "Eureka" moment - obvious in retrospect but
somebody had to be the first to realise it.

But one result was to set him down the road to agnosticism because he
couldn't reconcile the eat-or-be-eaten struggle for survival, with the
loving god he had previously believed directed evolution using
Lamarckian heredity.

He didn't publish his rigorously researched theory of evolution until
many years later, because he didn't want to upset the religious,

Yep.

These morons have no idea what science is, how its practiced or the
scientific method.

Darwin's other great contribution to science was to the scientific
method itself - the validation or refutation of prediction to extend
knowledge.

The stupids don't seem to understand this, and lie about this being
guesses, faith, etc.

The degree was in theology, but a large part of his study involved "natural philosophy," studying flora and fauna. In fact, the pursuit of natural philosophy -- for budding theologians -- was thought to expand man's knowledge of the wondrous works of God. In any even he learned a great deal about descriptive biology, the right ways of collecting and preserving specimens, even geology.

After the publication of his "Voyage" book he was awarded a Master's Degree from Cambridge.

As usual, dishonest, nasty theist invents motives that aren't there,

If there _is_ a god, then it did it that way.

No, it is an attempt, however futile, to treat Yahooey the same

a proper name, but isn't real. Capitalaizing "god" anywhere but
at the beginning of a sentence is following a tradition that
goes back to the ancient Hebrews: one doesn't use YHWH lightly,
but refers obliquely to the deity, calling it "the Lord" or
some other obfuscation.

It's superstitious nonsense, and I and others just won't play.

Does every natural process exclude your pathetic god?
A worldview is not a 'natural process'? Also a phantasy
is not a 'natural process'. And there is no "pathetic god".
...pathetic imaginary god....is that better ?
The fact that you say 'god' rather than 'God'
is evidence that you know there is GOD but
not god.
No, it is not. It is only proof of how I don't wish to give any sort of reverence to an imaginary being. Just one of many that men have invented over the centuries.

Why do you bother? Do you really thonk you can tarnish the reputation or unddiscover the theory of evolution?
It wouln't matter if Darwin was a scienist or a plumber. He still discovered evoltion through natural selection.
Before that he was a recognized world expert on barnacles. This does not paint a picture of a sloppy scientist.

Still it does not matter what you think of him. His work is enshrined as one of the most important discoveries ever made.

There is nothing you can do about that. Either as a troll or as a fake Christian.

Nothing has anything to do with god's existence. There is no God. There was no Abraham, no Moses, no Noah, no Flood, no Exodus. Just throw out all the OT and you will be better off, it's almost all ficition.

The NT talks about a guy that prformed miracles but was so uninteresting, that nobody wrote a word about him during his lifetime.

If anybody remotely like Jesus existed, he was not anything like the one in the NT.

You are convinced there is a god. Why? Based on what?

_____________________________________________

"I recently asked more than 70 eminent researchers if they
would have done their work differently if they had thought
Darwin's theory was wrong. The responses were all the
same: No.

I also examined the outstanding biodiscoveries of the past
century: the discovery of the double helix; the characterization
of the ribosome; the mapping of genomes; research on
medications and drug reactions; improvements in food
production and sanitation; the development of new surgeries;
and others.

I even queried biologists working in areas where one would
expect the Darwinian paradigm to have most benefited research,
such as the emergence of resistance to antibiotics and pesticides.

Here, as else where, I found that Darwin's theory had provided
no discernible guidance but was brought in, AFTER the
breakthroughs, as an interesting narrative gloss. <----

When an explanation is so supple that it can explain any behavior,
it is difficult to test it experimentally, much less use it as a catalyst
for scientific discovery."

"Creation science" has not entered the curriculum for a reason so
simple and so basic that we often forget to mention it: because it is
false, and because good teachers understand exactly why it is false.
What could be more destructive of that most fragile yet most precious
commodity in our entire intellectual heritage -- good teaching -- than
a bill forcing honourable teachers to sully their sacred trust by
granting equal treatment to a doctrine not only known to be false, but
calculated to undermine any general understanding of science as an
enterprise? - Stephen Jay Gould.

"Creation science" has not entered the curriculum for a reason so
simple and so basic that we often forget to mention it: because it is
false, and because good teachers understand exactly why it is false.
What could be more destructive of that most fragile yet most precious
commodity in our entire intellectual heritage -- good teaching -- than
a bill forcing honourable teachers to sully their sacred trust by
granting equal treatment to a doctrine not only known to be false, but
calculated to undermine any general understanding of science as an
enterprise? - Stephen Jay Gould.

His work is enshrined as one of the most
important discoveries ever made.
Can you please explain exactly
what it was that he discovered.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwinism
It talks about his ideas. I don't see where it
says he was the first person to discover a
'natural process'.
He discovered what ties all the life sciences together. Evolution through natural selection. He was not the only person to discover this, but the length of time he had been working on it and how thourough he ws are a arge part of the reason it his name we remembr and not that of Alfred Wallace.

It is important to keep in mind that evolution by natural selection is a theory that pertains to all life on earth. To prove a fundamental truth concerning all life on earth requires a range of facts and evidence drawn from every part of the organic world. The scope of the evidence must be commensurate with the scope of the principle it supports—and evolution is the fundamental integrating principle of all biology.

To prove his theory, Darwin assembled and organized “long catalogues of facts.”28 He gathered evidence from all corners of the plant and animal kingdoms, and from all corners of the globe. He had correspondents all over the world who sent him specimens and answered questions on local flora and fauna. He drew on the most obvious and the most obscure facts, spanning all branches of life’s family tree—from the smallest, microscopic organisms to the tallest trees and the largest whales, and from as far back in time as the fossil record went in his day.

He was an example for all science on how to be thourough, how to do the work necessary to get answers. Not necessarily the answer you wanted, but the right answer.

You can decide for yourself if you think he discovered a new natural process or not. It seems more accurate to me, that he discovered something that ties all life together. Something nobody had done before.

Attempts to smear him or say that he did nothing new are pointless. There is far too much data he collected for that to be true.

His work has stood the test of time and constant testing. Evolution through natural selection is real.

Because no one here is able to.
Thanks.
Liar. It has been explained many times.
Go read a science book.

You said that he discovered something
important. Why can't you just say what
it was?
