Wow you are a glutton for punishment ha ha. As I said, there are subjectivists that claim belief in God.

"One of the primary claims of subjectivism is that there is no God or any transcendent reality at all."--Paterfamilia

But then they have to reconcile their "no external or objective" truth attributions.

We see that all of the time in these threads. Theists are always complaining that the atheists ask for objective evidence when all the theist has is subjective evidence.

Okay, describe for me the God of the subjectivist.

The God that they claim only exists as experience and whose existence is not supported by any objective evidence. That's why they have faith.

I didn't say that there was.

" But I know that when I was applying to med school and studying for the MCAT, evolution was a hot button topic. Anyone who rejected the theory was absolutely penalized."--Paterfamilia

You did say it.

Are you now going to say I didn't experience what I experienced?

How would they know if you reject the theory of evolution on your MCAT's? You are making it up.

Sadly there's been many people claiming to experience things that didn't happen, in the name of political agenda, so sadly you'd need to state specifically what happened, since it sounds hard to believe. The MCAT doesn't say anything about it, nor is there some required "statement of faith", in which you MUST subscribe to evolution as a belief system, you know, like Answers in Genesis makes you do.

When your entire belief system is made up, they're used to making things up and it never being challenged, which is why they feel such pain at the modern world, and its easy to say hurricane Katrina was caused by homosexuals.

Which everyone knows it was caused by Mormons.

I said when I was applying for med-school and studying for the MCAT...

Every school of medicine has an application manual that outlines their admissions policies. One of the policies at most at that time was the acceptance of evolution.

On the MCAT there are a number of questions on evolution. These are study questions for the MCAT.

So, now you've called me a liar around a half dozen times and I'm getting a bit impatient with it. Didn't your Dad or Mom ever teach you any manners? As I said earlier to someone else, you wouldn't do that if we were in the same room. Promise.

Why do it here?

Show me a single school that states they will downgrade your application if you don't accept evolution.

You don't have to accept evolution in order to learn what the theory states. I could pass a quiz on young earth creationism, and I don't accept YEC.

You wouldn't be telling these made up stories if we were in the same room. I have worked with doctors, residents, medical students, pre-med students, and even applied to medical school myself. I have taken the MCAT's. My bovine excrement meter is pegged.

Yeah they aren't made up stories.

Did you interview with any schools? I did with three, and it's a question that got asked. They didn't say you can't be accepted if you don't believe it, but it is plainly stated that it doesn't help. Penalized, as I said.

Then why are you making them up?

You want to be rewarded instead?

Madeline Murray O'Hare won her debates the same way. Just keep calling the other a liar, and eventually they walk away.

So you can't show us a single medical school that states they will mark down your application if you don't accept evolution?

Do you consider this to be an effective strategy for you?


Yeah hitch it's not a strategy. I don't see any reason to continue a discussion with someone who is just going to call you a liar no matter what.

As I said, we'll wait and see what happens. Apparently I unknowingly broke protocol, so that may repercuss. Whatever. Probably another person on the ignore list.
