Thanks! Another brilliant example of how science is self-correcting. Yes, scientists are sometimes subjective; nobody denies it. But the peer-review process and the scientific method corrects for this. Sometimes it’s sooner, sometimes later, but it always happens.
fortunately, sometimes it happens rather quickly...unfortunately, sometimes it takes generations
the same principle works in theology as in the other sciences :-)
BTW, the fact that bacteria existed over 3.6 bya is not in dispute, only whether there were photosynthetic bacteria present at that time.
you right...in part...it is not in dispute in this article, but it is most certainly in dispute :-)
