It is not just creationist that are a burden on the minds of the world, ALL GOD believers have been robbed of there ability to think clearly. I am so happy that atheism is on a huge rise, all you GOD believers can eat my monkey crap. Think that is a harsh statement, well it in fact is and should be considered so by the delusional minds in this world. I do not have to be nice to some of the most rediculous thoughts that are simply controlling the things that are major setback for the humanrace
funny how you can always had comments to scientists’ posting r.e. evolution/religion etc but NEVER to Creationist/moron postings!
Why is it that?
You honestly think you’d be able to find “ancestral bacterial fore bearers” in the fossil record. Maybe you should review the process of fossilization, and how that applies to small soft bodied organisms. Especially something that would be basil to all bacteria.
LIE.
it doesn’t matter where we came from, it is the fact you people think someone made us and cant explain the process of how that creator is made and expect us to leave it at that…that is total bullshit and you know it. The fact that there is no evidence of this creator is why we must deal with what we have, which is natural means, and i guarentee there is a natural means to how we came about, a creator is hogwash dude because it leaves the question of what made the creator, and we dont have that

{i like to project an image – reference my screen name & picture & insult}
Well you’re doing a fantastic job of projecting the MadMAn image. I’ll tell you, you can even do away with the moniker & your MadMan image will still project like there’s no tomorrow
Do you always project a false image of your victimization with a “insulted me” straw man…or is that simply your Madness again?
My words were these – “Its ironic that your moniker is MadMAn. That is your moniker, is it not?
well if you read my page, (which seems obvious that you did) you would know that i like to project an immage so that i can tell the difference between an ignorant person and someone with a little depth, from this study i have concluded that 100% of the religious people that have messaged me reference my screen name and picture and insult, where as non-religious people have looked beyond SN’s and pictures, and pass it off as (which is correct) that i must like “Call of duty” or something lol
“Creation Science > begat Intelligent Design > begat Edwards case branching off into teaching evidence against Evo & teaching alternative theories to Evo”
Well… at least there exists an evidential record of the lineage. Which is much more than can be said about the progeny of ancestral bacterial forebearers. Hell, even the most recent “missing link” ancestors have to be evidenced with a long list of frauds
Those “Crazy Creationists”, having the nerve to actually beget one another!
After all, only a “real” scientist could explain the empirical test results which prove how the immaterial mind could be made ill by a immaterial culprit. Also, the empiricism that shows how illness is spoken into remission
You just simply go ahead & continue speaking much about reality cuz thats how you get better at knowing it. Thats how Psychologists do it…they talk & talk very much. Oh, and don’t forget to vote…its a important part of the democratic scientific method
Stay real..Ape Bro
invented the ruler by which to measure normalcy. They still use that ruler today. Of course, with a few modifications by dog & rat trainers/conditioners
Following in Freud’s footsteps, most Psychologists are Atheists and feel the same way he did about the religious & probably their mothers also. They’ve been a tremendous influence on society’s world & life view. No doubt, yours also…even if you’re not aware of it
Of course, they, like yourself, are extremely qualified to speak of reality.
@MadMAn12gauge
{Religion and reality are seperate and allways will be – bringing reality to their church is not something that they want}
Its ironic that your moniker is “MadMAn” because you sound like you could be a Psychologist. They often describe what is reality. You’re very much like Freud. He also said that the religious are defectively delusional
So after he realized that he wanted to have sex with his mother and associated everything with penises & his daughter committed suicide, he
nah, evolution has No place in an inferior institution of thought such as a church, Religion and reality are seperate and allways will be, All realigion wants to do is mix reality and fantasy so that you cannot tell the difference, but bringing reality to their church is not something that they want because it would mean less followers to their 6,000 year old earth mumbo jumbo
Columbus knew the world was round because pretty much every civilization had figured it out since, at least, the time of ancient Greece. Those Greeks also figured out, pretty accurately, how large the world was.
Columbus was trying to prove the world was a lot smaller than everyone else thought it was, and he was monumentally wrong.
I think you should see creationism taught in schools….
as soon as church and Sunday school cover Darwinism without “lol” or “this is wrong” being involved. Teach evolution in church, and we can teach creationism in school.
You need to see a doctor
this woman is hot. why is such physical and intellectual sexiness so damn rare?
I was going to say that Behe looks like my husband. But it would be truer to say that, if my husband had a lobotomy, he would look like Behe, A crucial distinction, believe me.
But of course, so many creationists dumb things down further, and say that the Grand Canyon was created by the global flood, that is by waters coming up from the gulf of California, which involves all sorts of new difficulties.
does he give head?
God loves you guys
what are these people so afraid of? If they are right, then science will eventually show that. You don’t see scientists butting into scripture classes to tell them they are telling it all wrong. Christians should mind their own business if they want to continue contradicting reality.
If evolution theory is in crisis and another theory can disprove it, I will accept it as long as there’s evidence to support.
This is what science is about. Evolutionist do not worship Darwin like Creationist worship God.
uh, I think I’m stating the obvious here…. but, if you know anything about geometry you know a circle is 2 dimensional, and its 3 dimensional version is a SPHERE, right? So how is comparing the earth to a circle suggests that its spherelike?
« This is why »
No, Gould proposed his model to explain why we find many transitions at the genus level and above, but very few at the species level. This has to do with the fossil record, not with the observation of nested hierarchies.
« Linnaeus’s model was the creationist orchard »
Excuse me?
« But the only evidence is at the tips and nodes the rest is missing »
Uh? Is there something wrong with the observation that we are all eukaryota, chordates, craniates and so on? Do you contest this?
