your views on creationism please

[openmindedman]

Will you fuck off please ? And Lance, come back.

Step three... mob thought. when more than one person agrees with you it must be a fact!

 

[dyingsun]

Interesting how you follow a 'steps' program.

actually you guys have been following steps... exactly as predicted.

Mental puppets

Can anyone give irrefutable evidence for evolution?

I see, 'puppet master', ey Wank yourself to sleep or continue to entertain.

you are alive ?

"...when more than one person agrees with you it must be a fact!"

So what is it when everyone DISagrees with you? Complete bullshit, maybe?

 

[openmindedman]

I didn't mean that I was leaving the forums...I still enjoy them (even though certain members here do want me banned and it is obvious that skeptical posts endure much more scrutiny than believer posts) but I am through talking with the drunk guy who has the lampshade over his head! It's hilarious when he does it at home, I'm sure.

Your post shows a few things one... you have aggressive tendencies that are hallmarked by a need to be right, and when confronted you justify your retreat in an attempt to keep a feeling of superiority, because you most assuredly have a deep seeded inferiority complex.

Second, you also show your age, which means these are probably traits that can't be changed. Lampshade over the head reference dates back to an adolescence in the late 70's early 80's I guess, where that reference was more common.

The longer a belief is held, especially a false belief that supports a particular world view, the more passionate a person will be in defending it. i.e. UFO cults and believers, evolutionists etc.

critical thinking is an art you apparently were never born with.

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------

sheep people, which is common these days. No faculties for critical thinking, takes all supposed "evidence" at face value, for the simple fact that they agree with it.

Amazing, how a simple question still remains unanswered. If evolution is true, beyond a doubt, I'm only asking for ONE irrefutable fact.

You are all so much more informed than I am on the subject that should be and easy and quick answer.... right?

 

[openmindedman]

Hmm.. use of "deep seeded" instead of the more conventional (and actually correct) "deep seated".

I'm gonna say Harvard...

Goddamn, why the hell am I feeding this dumbass? Can we each get one last shot him and then let him swing alone--can we all do that for the love of God?

YES! typos mean everything! you are soo right and I am soo wrong... Deflect the statement and focus on the one error... classic. Any more stereotypical patterns you want to act out.

 

[openmindedman]

It's not a typo bonehead--typos are forgiven here--you didn't know the correct word until just now which betrays the fact that you are trying to sound like you didn't just get off from the late shift at Best Buy so that you could return to the internet where you are a highly respected scientist (and perhaps also a super hero).

Lance

I can tell by your vocabulary that you are superior to me... which again, shows your over compensation for an inferiority complex. You undermine other jobs as a way of making you feel like your life isn't wasted in a dead end of banality. Either you have a bad home life or unfulfilled career, maybe both.

You really need to check on that... It is a pitiful condition to be so low, you have to prop yourself up at others expense all the time.

silly little man. ;-)

Creationism is based on a 3000 year old book of quasi-historical jewish fairy tales. NO part of it is scientific and EVERY part of it depends solely on a singular, religious viewpoint. Rebranding it "Intelligent Design" represents nothing more than smoke-and-mirrors and ultimately achieves roughly the same effect as dressing a warthog in a tuxedo: looks better but still stinks like hell.

Evolution on the other hand is a scientific theory. Scientific theory. Not a guess, not an assumption, a theory... in the same way that gravity is also "just a theory". If you think that "theory" translates to "belief system" then I challenge you to apply the same disregard you seem to hold for evolution to gravity and see how far it gets you. I'm guessing not far (save to the ER... or morgue).

Also: the micro-evolution of viruses and bacteria is effectively proven as they have been shown to be capable of a considerable degree of adaptation throught natural selection to create more and more drug-resistant strains of themselves. Since fractal math shows us that things which occur in nature at small scales/fast rates tend to repeat at larger scales/slower rates, we can therefore extrapolate out from the micro to the macro and add it to the OVERWHELMING PREPONDERANCE OF EVIDENCE that exists to date. We can conclude that evolution is indeed well supported and that the only reason we cannot "prove" it in the standard sense is that we can't actually observe it taking place because we don't live for millions of years.

 

[justcurious]

At least I don't have a limited mind that can't accept larger possibilities.

But alas, true believers are always blind to their own faults and bigoted as a protection against accepting new ideas.

Larger possibilities ? Like a solidly built elderly man in a throne deciding to play designer to fend off boredom ?
New ideas ? Creationism is a NEW idea ? Versus the OLD evolution theory ?

The best part is that you expect to be SAVED because of your views ...

GO SAVE YOURSELF !

 

[dyingsun]

'inferiority complex'. openmindedman? Enjoy yourself while it lasts, you don't seem dumb, sad to see your mind wasted here in that fashion. For the record, we all believe in UFOS.

Gravity really? according to "fractal math":

"fractal matter distribution out to such huge scales undermines the standard model of cosmology. According to the accepted story of cosmic evolution, there simply hasn't been enough time since the big bang nearly 14 billion years ago for gravity to build up such large structures."

"If this dissenting view is correct and the Universe doesn't become smoothed out on the very largest scales, the consequences for cosmology are profound. "We're lost," says Coles. "The foundations of the big bang models would crumble away. We'd be left with no explanation for the big bang, or galaxy formation, or the distribution of galaxies in the Universe."

Again CONFIRMATION BIAS and NARRATIVE FALLACY, you are interpreting raw data to bolster your beliefs not the other way around.

This guy is funny, lets keep him

 

[openmindedman]

GO SAVE YOURSELF !

Trust me I'm not trying to Save anyone... well maybe save them from an ignorant existence. ;-)

But that is a futile endeavor I fear.

The ignorant will always be with us, hiding in the shadows of their own beliefs, fearful of what may lurk in the light of truth.

Is a theory, yes.

"fractal matter distribution out to such huge scales undermines the standard model of cosmology. According to the accepted story of cosmic evolution, there simply hasn't been enough time since the big bang nearly 14 billion years ago for gravity to build up such large structures."

"If this dissenting view is correct and the Universe doesn't become smoothed out on the very largest scales, the consequences for cosmology are profound. "We're lost," says Coles.

Annonymous quotes pulled out of your ass are not evidence of anything.

Again CONFIRMATION BIAS and NARRATIVE FALLACY, you are interpreting raw data to bolster your beliefs not the other way around.

Uh no, I'm presenting conclusive, peer reviewed data to support existing theories that destroy your beilefs. Confirmation yes, bias no (unless being correct is a bias in which case, guilty as charged!)

One additional point and then I'm done with you: Human beings have tonsils, wisdom teeth and an appendix. None of them serve any purpose.

I'll leave you to insert a childish remark and pat yourself on the back for being oh-so clever now.

 

[justcurious]

This guy is impervious to reasoning, so let's try humour :

Okay humour is probably lost on him too ....

 

[openmindedman]

Says volumes about you by the way ;-)

Basically that fact out of my ass comes for newsicentist.com article, if you could read, maybe you would look it up. It PROVES that we don't know anything, the more we learn, the less we know.

as for your peer review, again, do some research on narrative fallacy and confirmation bias in peer review. may open your mind... or just entrench you deeper in your BELIEF SYSTEM!

your god = evolution i.e. belief system

Why can't anyone overload me with facts? you just attack me personally without giving me all those irrefutable facts that you must all know very well.

If you don't know all the facts? why do you believe so strongly?
