Latest Challenges to the Teaching of Evolution

Taters is a carbohydrate that converts into sugar; you're made up of iodine.
Red, but no salt to be found.

Obviously. I'm an evolutionist. We are all like that. But I'm not one of those silly sods who think that it explains everything because they have a personal need to render themselves less culpable for infractions of the Christian code of sexual conduct.

I can't even discover whether Amish kids come under the protection of the Constitution. Another question ignored. One of thousands.

You haven't explained an entelechy by describing it. Anybody writing a book about the NFL would devote only one chapter to describing it. The easiest chapter to write and to read. The rest of the book would be explaining it. Right back to the competitive "instinct".

Is the urge to compete an instinct or is it learned. An instinct is like when somebody shoves a red hot needle into your arse cheek and you jump. Everybody does it.

It's an instinct to seek a hot bath at this time of day as foreplay to tickle up the thirst for a higher instinct--getting a bit tiddly. I bet you only go on cruises so you can get more pissed up than you dare do at home.

Who claimed it "explains everything?" No wonder you're confused!

But people think their religion explains everything and whether they are deluded or not if they think it does they will feel more satisfied than those whose explanation falls short of everything when natural scientific curiosity is so adamant that an explanation should exist.

You have just blown up your side unless you can show that the human race can do without a satisfying explanation of everything. It would have to cease thinking altogether imo. Look how everybody hates movies that end up in the air.

Like the sports psychiatrist I mentioned. Even if he went back to the competitive instinct, allowing it to be an instinct, he still has the problem of what stage generated it and how and then his entelechy is incomplete. He has still only described the stages of the genesis of NFL. He takes the competitive urge for granted, as does Marx with the class struggle and Darwin with Natural Selection. Then descriptions of the stages in the series are used to obscure that logical flaw which is easy done if the audience is flattered. The congregation in a proper church at least gets to feel ashamed once a week and resolves to do better.

You think a scientist is somebody who has passed one of fm's exams and gets funds. I showed how infants are scientists by them strictly adhering to every stage except the last in fm's borrowed analysis of the scientific method which we were only exposed to in the service of demonstrating that he thoroughly understands it which he self-evidently doesn't. Infants don't want to publish.

Answer that ci. Forget blurting silly insults. They give the vacuity of your position away.

Pollock wasnt a misogynyst in his art either but if we would ask Lee Krazner or Helen Frankenthaler, theyd tell a different story.

try to have a discussion with one person at a time, youre ill equipped for multitasking.

I am equipped in the usual manner evolution determined. Your fatuous insults are incoherent on a science thread.

Lee Krazner and Helen Frankenthaler stories too.

I know what a misogynist is. And you are one fm. The very worst type.

Ones who thinks labelling others as misogynists somehow excuses them. Word magic. Means nothing to me. Nothing!

I leave such judgements to ladies.

Spendius I bet you would have a lot of fun in this thread.

Right. Youre the one that thinks women shouldnt be educated in the fields they choose, and blame all sorts of things on some "tempreamental condition associated with the the double x chromosomes
Youd have made a decent Muslim cleric

You don't follow financial scam statistics? Top of the class are religious congregations: http://www.economist.com/node/21543526

That is the truth about a hair cut the church will give you.

Jeeze, spendi, you belong on another planet. Human curiosity is a given on planet earth; that's the reason why technological advances are so fast.

If you can't handle it, your pub will never be enough shelter for you. LOL

Dream on you two. Nobody gets fleeced in a Christian church. There's no security in the porch like the NCSE will have. Nobody gives money if they don't wish to do. It's the fact that they wish to do you need to address.

I suppose you will say that they have been conned. Which means you're not dumb. Thanks for that but we knew it all along. It's just the reverse invidious comparison dressed in corsets.

It might be that you are tight-wads and claim the church has no benefits to square up your sophistries.

Your best bet is to cite the Bible for your day of rest and claim religious sanction for stopping in bed all day on Sunday.

The whole church "thing" is a fleece job; they only wish to control the masses - and their money. If you look around, they've been pretty successful over the centuries.

Spendius I am talking about the moral and logical bankrupted hair cut you might get if you attend one of our southern baptist bible thumping churches but they would like your money as well and add in a guilt trip for free.

I don't put any southern baptist bible thumping churches into my reckoning.

I live in the South, and we don't have any churches like that.

In direct competition with democrats.

oooh we are graced by the visitation of the A2K science intellectual ,SPURT.
Hes yet to be right on anything so I would suggest that, whatever he proposes, everyone do the opposite.

Do you mean that if he stuffs you in his next post I should rush to your defence?

No, but it does mean if he bonks you at your local pub, nobody will shelter you.
