Obviously not. I merely refer to science and research, which as I pointed out, is an ongoing process. Science does not claim to know the answer to the origin of the universe or how life got started, which theists claim to have the answers, their version of God created the universe and life and that is that.

You try every trick in the book to discredit evidence based science, testing and review, in an attempt to justify faith, beliefs held without evidence.

I hide behind nothing. You are equivocating science and faith by ignoring evidence.

Still the fallacy of equivocation. A belief in the realty of Allah is not to be compared to research into genetics, paleontology, etc.

Partly true in the form of Plato's Royal Lie.
