Well, if you want me to believe I came from Jungle Jim's DNA, you'd better show me something besides what dances around in an electron microscope or a Petri dish.

Actually, AV, nobody cares what you believe -- You're not worth the time. But if you want to come on boards like this one and try to infect others with your self-serving superstitions, you had best be ready to deal with unpleasantly contrary evidence -- you know, the kind you can't tell to "take a hike."

I do deal with it, in my own way -- and you guys don't have to respond to it, if you don't want to.

But I have a feeling you guys love to get worked up, and I'm just the "clown" to put on a show, eh?

That indeed is a 'no'.
you can see flys without a microscope and there have been observed cases of specialization and macro evolution with this types of animals.

Will we shift the goal posts once again?

What were being swatted before they turned into flies -- that those guys saw?

Scientism -- specifically evolution -- is going to get much, much worse before it meets its end.
"Scientism" is not evolution! :doh:

Who is "Jungle Jim," and why would anyone want to convince you that you came from him??

I suppose some people are desperate enough to accept whatever attention they can get.

For pity's sake.

Here, let me reword it.

Scientism, specifically that part of it that deals with evolution, will get worse before it meets its end.

As the one who originally dubbed you as such, I think you're better described as an unwitting tackling dummy; a "punching bag" of sorts. You're incapable of making any sort of attack, but attacking you can still improve our form and endurance. The novelty of your prideful, persistent ignorance has long since worn off, but your faithful stubbornness is still of some use.

If you guys think I like the attention I get from you [guys], you're way off.

I can't even post in a thread "far" away from here, without someone coming up there and calling me something not worth repeating.

(I'd hate to ask you guys if you agree with Evelyn Beatrice Hall's famous saying.)

I don't know where you guys come from with this false accusation [of pride], but I assume you guys need something to justify your disgust.

Well you certainly seem to take an unfortunately large amount of pride in your faith despite no supporting evidence, and indeed in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary.

Case in point, in a thread that asked people replying to first watch a video then comment on it, you replied almost instantly trying you hardest to inject your prideful foolish faith without so much as glancing at the subject matter being discussed.

I believe you. I truly believe you have no idea how you might come across as prideful at times. That's how defense mechanisms work. You're able to ignore the vast amount of (dare I say it?) evidence contradicting you in order to protect your precious ego. You'd rather believe we're wrong about you than right about evolution.
Case in point, you've ignored the bulk of my post to fixate on one specific word so you can turn the focus back around on us. You'll probably continue doing this for the rest of the exchange. Just like old times.

Second most annoying thing about you, man. Your arrogant, self-aggrandizing delusion of persecution and martyrdom. :doh:

You REALLY don't know, AV? You think arguments against Christianity, religion in general, your deity, religious traditions, the Bible, basic doctrine, Baptists, creationism, intelligent design, KJV, etc, etc, etc.. are all attacks meant to ridicule YOU. It's not all about you, AV.

Pride in ignorance. You should ask god to forgive you of that. :amen:

Not my job -- that job is reserved for Someone else -- Who will do so when this dispensation ends.

Scientism -- specifically evolution -- is going to get much, much worse before it meets its end.

So, in other words, you cannot refute it. A simple no would've sufficed, AV. No need to make answers longer than they have to be.
