Look, you're wasting our time. You're not going to get us to not believe in evolution. And why is that? Because the smartest scientists in the entire world all agree that it's real.
I'm glad you brought that up. Because Mr. Reynolds, science is a liar sometimes. Oh, boy. This is Aristotle. Thought to be the smartest man on the planet. He believed that the Earth was the center of the universe, and everybody believed him because he was so smart. Until another smartest guy came around, Galileo, and he disproved that theory, making Aristotle and everybody else on Earth look like a fool.
Of course, Galileo then thought comets were an optical illusion, and there's no way that the moon could cause the oceans' tides. Everybody believed that because he was so smart. He was also wrong, making him and everyone else on Earth look like a fool again.
And then, best of all, Sir Isaac Newton gets born and blows everybody's nips off with his big brains. Of course, he also thought he could turn metal into gold and died eating mercury, making him yet ANOTHER STUPID ARE YOU SEEING A PATTERN? NO. MR. REYNOLDS, these were all the smartest scientists on the planet. Only problem is, THEY KEPT BEING WRONG SOMETIMES.
This is insane, you fool. I'm a fool because I have more faith in the saints that wrote the Bible? Yeah, because you just read the words of a bunch of guys that you never met, and you just take it on faith that everything they wrote was true. Mhm. And what makes you think what your scientists are writing is any more truer than my saints?
>> Because there are volumes of proven data, numbers, figures. THERE THERE ARE FOSSIL RECORDS.
OH, fossil records. Ah, I didn't even think about the fossil records. I guess I'll concede. OH WAIT, ONE more thing before I do, Mr. Reynolds. Have you seen these fossil records? Have I seen? Huh? Have you poured through the data yourself? The numbers, the figures.
Well, no. I mean, no. Oh. Interesting. So, let me get this straight, Mr. Reynolds. You get your information from a book written by men you've never met. And you take their words as truth based on a willingness to believe, a desire to accept, a leap of dare I say it? Faith?
I I come on. Look, I mean, I don't even know how I'm supposed to respond to that. Like I come on. That is a That's a false equivalence. Just answer the question, Mr. Reynolds.
Sure. Yeah. Okay. I rest my case. Well, that's got me. Yeah, you can take that.
