Uhhh...no, you can't...and I'm the one with the math degree,
keep that in mind.

The fact that you don't understand the fallacy of your statement
is just one more sad commentary on the misunderstanding of
science in modern America.

Rather than point out the fallacy in your statement, why don't
you go educate yourself, using sources OTHER THAN those written
by people who lie for God?

Because I suspect you didn't make up this fallacious statement
all by yourself. I suspect you read it in some book claiming
to debunk modern biology, written by someone who knowingly
lies for God. The fallacy of the above statement is
so basic that no one who understands science, or the role math
plays in science, could unknowingly make the error.

In other words, the statement is not only wrong, but I would
suggest is an intentional lie.
