I agree. I comfortably assert that evolution is fact, and evolution is science. This is independent of various social / cultural phenomena surrounding the discussion.
As a skeptic and contrarian I've encountered the "evolution is science and if you question any aspect you are an idiot" people, and worse. Many ignorant people believe in evolution without understanding it, without understanding the evidentiary basis for it. They have chosen the correct cultural 'team' to side with, but usually for the wrong reasons.
- netcan 7y agoJust because people believe in a scientific theory doesn't mean they don't believe in science. They don't technically even have to know about science. In practice though, most evolution skeptics don't believe in science.
