New Creationist theory on how life spread out after the flood.

[bhsmte]

Satan will surface with a lie if he has to -- especially if the lie is a scientific one.

He doesn't care if the lie will be caught later ... as long as it keeps the tenor of evolution moving forward in the public's eye.

Thus when Haeckel's drawings were exposed as a fake, it was no big deal.

The damage had already been done as far as the general public was concerned.

When in doubt, blame satan.

 

[AV1611VET]

When in doubt, blame satan.

And if not in doubt?

 

[bhsmte]

And if not in doubt?

Blame science?

 

[AV1611VET]

Blame science?

They would just blame big pharmaceuticals, administration, or the press.

In some cases, like 9/11, they would blame religion.

 

[Loudmouth]

The evidence is all around you, you just need to open your eyes and look.

Then show us since you claim it is so easy to find.

 

[Loudmouth]

the discussion was insects so why are you adding oranges to apples now?

Why would it matter whether it is insects or mammals?

 

[Loudmouth]

Another imaginary picture made up of bones dug up who knows where and then placed in a neat little imaginary evolution tree based one similarities. I suppose this is the sort of brain washing we see in schools today.

Since when are the similarities imaginary? You claim that you are using the same evidence, and yet here you are claiming that the evidedence is imaginary.

And if not in doubt?

I was about to advise bhsmte to replace "doubt" with "crippling insecurity."

 

[AV1611VET]

I was about to advise bhsmte to replace "doubt" with "crippling insecurity."

That wouldn't surprise me.

Which is why you are a literary professor and not a psychiatrist.

 

[CabVet]

In some cases, like 9/11, they would blame religion.

Oh, 9/11 was not caused by religious extremists? Was it really scientists? Tell me more about it...

 

[AV1611VET]

Oh, 9/11 was not caused by religious extremists? Was it really scientists? Tell me more about it...

I take it we haven't discussed this before? or are you playing ignorant so I'll repeat my ... hypothesis?

 

[CabVet]

I take it we haven't discussed this before? or are you playing ignorant so I'll repeat my ... hypothesis?

No, we have not discussed this. Please do repeat your... hypothesis.

Question: were the crusades run by scientists too?

 

[TLK Valentine]

That wouldn't surprise me.

Ah, you've heard it before?

Which is why you are a literary professor and not a psychiatrist.

Would you pay attention to a psychiatrist?

 

[AV1611VET]

No, we have not discussed this. Please do repeat your... hypothesis.

I'll do it as a series of interrogatives, and you grade my paper -- how's that?

 

[AV1611VET]

Would you pay attention to a psychiatrist?

No ... especially a professor of literature masquerading as one.

 

[CabVet]

I'll do it as a series of interrogatives, and you grade my paper -- how's that?

I'd much rather have it stated as a hypothesis, like this:

Null hypothesis: On Sep. 11, 2001, 20 Muslim extremists affiliated with Al Qaeda highjacked four airplanes. One of the planes crashed into the side wall of the Pentagon, two were flown against the world trade center in New York City and one crashed in an unpopulated area after passengers decided to take action.

Alternative hypothesis:

You fill in the blank above.

Good ... let's get started then:

1. Does the Bible say we should not suffer a witch to live?

2. If so, should a follower of the Bible consider hunting witches?

3. If he doesn't hunt witches, has he been prompted to do so by scientists -- even in jest?

4. If so, and by the same token, does the Koran advocate violence against infidels?

5. If so, have scientists on the Muslim servers prompted Muslims to take action in accordance with their Koran as well?

Grade this, please.

Zero. And you just bare false witness again.

Here, I have a better one to you:

1. The 9/11 hijackers were delivered by doctors.

2. Doctors are scientists.

3. Scientists caused 9/11.

Grade this, please.

 

[AV1611VET]

Zero. And you just bare false witness again.

Perhaps you could ... maybe ... highlight in red the errant premiss(es)?

 

[AV1611VET]

I'm speaking from experience here, Cab.

Suddenly PL&S and C&E is full of doctors now?
