At least he read my post, and I can always cite it if he ever professes a misunderstanding again.

Doveaman's Quote of Them
Notes something missing? Must be nice to be free to so fully misquote someone.
What'd you expect?
Creationists are so used to being dishonest with themselves - persuading themselves that evolution is false in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary - that it's a million times easier for them to be dishonest with everyone else in order to maintain their delusions and self-imposed ignorance.
You had a conversation with a Chinese false prophet who insulted you, and now you say you know why creationists don't think they are dishonest?I met this guy, Chinese actually, a Christian. I made the mistake of talking creo-evo with him and after a bit i found out that he believed everything he said came direct from god who was speaking thru him, so....whatever he said was True. And me? he said all my words came direct from Satan, who was speaking thru me.
Made me wonder what they need us for.
But now I know why creationists dont think they are dishonest no matter what, and will report you to the mods if you say they are.

No. That us and chimpanzees share a common ancestor is a theory, not a fact. Try again.
I did agree with your whole post, but the part I quoted was the part that specifically addressed the point I was making to your students.At least he read my post, and I can always cite it if he ever professes a misunderstanding again.
Yes.Notes something missing?
It was not a misquote. It was a partial quote, the part that was relevant to my discussion.Must be nice to be free to so fully misquote someone.
I have students? CoolI did agree with your whole post, but the part I quoted was the part that specifically addressed the point I was making to your students.
But for some reason they are still in denial.
You are still wrong.You still have not even a shred of an idea at what the terms 'fact' and 'theory' mean in a scientific context. The hard evidence we have shows the fact that chimpanzees and us share a common ancestor. The 'theory' part explains how that happened.
The theory of evolution is the theory that all life is descended from a common ancestor
He should expect not to be so bias and not to be dishonest like you.
No, I did not. I agree with his entire post, but quoted only what was relevant to our discussion: Common descent - fact or theory?You quote mined, and then you call me dishonest?
You responded to a segment of his post that made it look like he was saying something different and acted like that it was what he was saying.
That common descent is a theory and not a fact.
They deny that common descent is a theory and not a fact.
You are still wrong. Deal with it.You still have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. You do know it's better to just have people think you know nothing about science, than to open your mouth and prove it...
A theory is an explanation of facts...A theory is a collection of facts...
Have you come to join in on the dishonesty and denials too?There is some massive projection there going on from Doveaman. He is literally refusing despite being shown several times to accept the scientific definition of the term 'theory'.
What dishonesty and denial are you referring to? You have been corrected repeatedly by everyone on this thread regarding the meaning of 'theory' in a scientific context and you have despite these corrections refused to acknowledge your error.Have you come to join in on the dishonesty and denials too?
