Well he uses it to attack science he doesn't like that comes to conclusions he disagrees with that he 'sees with his own eyes'.

When science comes to irrational conclusions that are incongruent with the realities we experience first hand every day, then I don't trust it, and there is often good reason to suspect the results have been corrupted by relativism, obscurantism, social constructionism, etc.

Examples? Uh... the claim that humans that look and behave wildly different are somehow magically all the same at the DNA level? And also the claim that animals that look virtually indistinguishable are actually this incredible rainbow of genetic diversity under a microscope.
-
'magically all the same at the DNA level' who says this? References? Not to a 'pomo', show a scholarly article.

It was an exaggeration of the liberal creationist claims we're bombarded with every friggin day, but I think you already knew that.
