My Certification Challenge

[Steve Petersen]

Hurts to say what?

Science doesnt certify myths.

I know where he is going, I think. Next he will say 'If it can't certify them, it can't decertify them either.'

 

[AV1611VET]

Is that a "NO"?

(It hurts to say that, doesn't it?)

Hurts to say what?

Dear me!

Some can't even see the word!

Dear me!

When someone says that science doesn't certify myths, that person is basically saying that "No, Genesis cannot be scientifically certified".
How hard is this for you to understand?

Close.

More like:

If they can't certify creationism as a myth, then whether it is myth, lie, legend, or otherwise* is just an opinion.

* Except truth: that would have to come by faith, not opinion.

Stung, didn't it?

That depends on how YOU define a myth, since you are the OP here. So, what is YOUR definition of a myth?

... what?

I don't deal in myths and couldn't care less what the definition is.

So you start a thread talking about myths... and you don't even care about the definition of myth?
Can you not see how disingenuous that is?

I started a thread asking if creatonism is a scientifically certified myth.

Is there something wrong with that?

Apparently, quite difficult for him.

Cool.

Now, pay attention to the answers.

There is something wrong with that. You have just said that you don't care what the definition of myth is, so that obviously means that you don't care if anyone even answers your question anyway, since you don't care enough about the question you asked to begin with.

 

[AV1611VET]

Apparently, quite difficult for him.

I'm second to none here ... even scientists ... in saying that Genesis 1 cannot be scientifically certified.

That does NOT mean I'm saying Genesis 1 is a myth.

(Did you see how he worded that? He [conveniently?] left off: "as a myth" in his quote.)

 

[Steve Petersen]

That does NOT mean I'm saying Genesis 1 is a myth.

Again I ask, what do you mean by 'myth?'

 

[Ophiolite]

How about if I investigate before I communicate first?

You know, ask questions?

Asking questions is a form of communication. Therefore it would not be possible to investigate by asking questions before you communicated.

This appears to be yet another example of either
1. Your poor comprehension of how words are used and what they mean.
Or,
2. Your somewhat cynical modus operandi of knowingly distorting, warping, or twisting meaning in a deluded attempt "trap" those with whom you disagree.

Are alleles scientifically certified?

And don't even ask me what an allele is.

I've read about them several times and still don't get it.

False equivalency. Is it even possible for you to stay on topic?

Now you know why I call these threads "challenges," don't you?

There is no challenge. In fact, the answer was given to you in the very first page, in the second post, that answered your 'challenge', but you refused to acknowledge it.
