Dialectics: Scientific Creationism and Evolution

Evolution: Why the hell am I in a room with this myth? This theory is incredibly overblown; the scientific foundation that I stand upon isn’t nearly comparable to this psychotic fake.
Scientific Creationism: Unbelievable, we stand upon the foundation of faith and belief. Furthermore, even science points to creationism, the meticulous structure that this world stands upon- it’s only logical to see the creator behind our lives.
Evolution: Are you kidding me? We only see the consistently evolving structures of life and the adaptation that is involved with the biosphere. This is an internal process due to natural selection and the inherent order.
Scientific Creationism: Unbelievable… so ignorant.
Wait…
Why is this contradicting? - The basis of Evolutionism doesn’t contradict with a natural creator- simply the process we abide by- what if a creator created this inherent order in which people do scientifically change. I mean, we actually do see some modern evolution within our lives.
Evolution: Hmm… Wow… this is true… but only to an extent. This theory only stands in a world where there aren’t adaptations or theories behind the basis of Evolutionism. For example, Darwinian Evolution, contradicts with the foundation of life- resting upon the Big Bang theory, where a creator plays absolutely no role. 
Scientific Creationism: This of course is true, we do have contradictions within the theories that obtain Evolution within how we as humans and life became, these changes, however, become inevitable, but why are we portrayed in direct rebuttal of one another?
Evolution: I believe it occurs in a misconstrued assimilation of Evolutionism and these theories that attempt to explain the beginning of life. Creationism, the presentation of our societal representations can be misconstructed at times.
Scientific Creationism: This is almost enlightening- and not to mention excellent. I’d like to thank you for this. It shows that not everything doesn’t have to conflict directly with one another, conflation becomes incessant, although we must recognize that there are differences do become inevitable.

Best of Today: Innovation

Today was about ideas. Not just grand ideas, or overlying AH HA'S!!!! But today was really about innovation. Minute distinctions that are refined for changing times. This was done in the discussion on the word facile. Believe it or not, this actually had an incredible impact on my outlook of genius.

I learned that genius today didn't always have to be discovering the theory of relativity, or creating the world's first computer. But, that it was about refinement and adaptation of the little things to adapt to the culture around you. It was about the little things and what today's society would inherently swarm towards. 

Mr. Allen brought this idea of curation to the table, the process of pooling together information and presenting it on one search engine that would provide incredible analysis and aid, catering to what web surfers like us, need. At first, I thought it was nothing more than a good website, simply taking out the step of searching a term on google, that it was nothing more than a convenience, nonetheless, the "next big thing".

Then, I saw it. 
1) convenience is HUGE in today's society- that in itself was genius
2) The process of information was completely different. The beauty of this idea was it broke from the "scripted code" of sites like google and bing, detracting from the thesis and core of these sites, not presenting the information in an advertised order.

It's actually quite amazing.

It's amazing to see how much these minute things, have the biggest impact on how we view this world.
