My Connect The Dots Challenge

[AirPo]

I guess I'm way past due in creating my own challenge thread, so here it is.

What is this a picture of ?

I'll start with few dots (data points) 1/1024 of the original.

Spoiler: 1/1024

Let's add some more.

Spoiler: 1/256

And some more. Any ideas yet?

Spoiler: 1/64

Maybe 1/16 is enough.

Spoiler: 1/16

One more hint.

Spoiler: 1/8

Finally!

Spoiler: The answer!

For completeness, and more hints if anyone really needs them, 1/4 and 1/2.

Spoiler: 4 and 2

Well, does connect the dots work or not?

Connect the Dots???

I thought this was Materialize?

It's a challenge about your persistence on referring to the theory of evolution as a game of 'connect the dots'.

Yes, I know what it is.

But he's demonstrating creatio ex nihilo, not evolution.

 

[HitchSlap]

Yes, I know what it is.

But he's demonstrating creatio ex nihilo, not evolution.

Where is this demonstrated?

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Yes, I know what it is.

But he's demonstrating creatio ex nihilo, not evolution.

No he's not. If you look in the first image more closely, you will see that there are dots already present.

 

[AV1611VET]

Ah! I see it now.

I had to tilt my screen back a little.

Creatio ex materia: that's more like it.

Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

No, that's not it eithe- oh why do I bother? It's like talking to a brick wall.

ETA: At least evolution has more evidence supporting it that your claim from the Bible.

 

[AV1611VET]

It's like talking to a brick wall.

Now that's called playing with blocks.

 

[AirPo]

Yes, I know what it is.

But he's demonstrating creatio ex nihilo, not evolution.

No, it demonstrates your "connect the dots" criticism is creatio ex nihilo.

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Now that's called playing with blocks.

... Oh, I so want to make a joke but if I did, I'd have a moderator all over me quicker than flies on manure on a hot day.

 

[AV1611VET]

No, it demonstrates your "connect the dots" criticism is creatio ex nihilo.

When have I ever criticized connect the dots?

 

[AV1611VET]

Is this a subtle reference to what "atheist" anagrams to?

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Is this a subtle reference to what "atheist" anagrams to?

... what? No. Here's a hint: Charlie Brown gets called it a lot.

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

When have I ever criticized connect the dots?

You have never done so. But you have repeatedly criticized evolution by calling it 'a game of connect the dots'.

 

[AV1611VET]

... what? No. Here's a hint: Charlie Brown gets called it a lot.

Ahhh!

Imma blockhead!

Got it!

Yesindeedydo.

And I'll continue to do so.

If you ever see evolution trees, they literally ... literally ... draw lines between existing dots.

They don't even name all the dots, they just put them there and draw lines between them.

That's why I'm fond of saying: "Only on paper."

But how exactly is that a bad thing? Your own Bible does the same thing with its genealogies.

Are you ignorant of other lines of evidence, or are you choosing to ignore them?
