Evolution Shmevolution.

Comment by KalleNewman

The Big Bang theorists have shown a great deal of worthy mathematics in an effort to prove their point, but math goes exactly as far as the the paper it is printed on and no farther.  Why?  Because the very concept of numeric proof is as theoretical as any other form of science.
