Intelligent Design vs. Casino Universe

I certain;ly am not going to waste any of my little grey cells on response to a douche bag like you. Youre just a sorry , mean old **** who has nothing left in life except to insult others. Im tired of you. Youre useless. Go away back to your gutter from whence you crawled.

That's whats annoying about him. Hes like a "butterfly in a shityard" He never can correctly defend anything he brings up so Its "Lets try another ridiculous tack and see where it goes till Im hammered"

Romeo, despite being FOS on his views, at least has a sense of humor about it. SO I

It is of no consequence what you think fm.

If you can't answer the questions put to you you are not at the races. So why pretend you are? You're just having yourself on.

All that bullshit about the Beagle/Darwin/Fitzroy etc lines them all up as puppets in your gameshow. There was flesh and blood involved and psychological conditions. Chaps.

Am I the only one who thinks Darwin unhinged for going? Jesus had said all there is worth saying about evolution. The rest is a cosy job creation scheme with mumbo-jumbo that will see the end of our culture. And the end of science too.

Science exploits the many benefits it has provided to grant itself authority and uses that authority to censor dissent. It gave us "television" (seeing at a distance, like in watching an NFL game), and now it conditions people's minds.

Take Gloria van Susteren's SPEED READ feechewer for example. The abject flattery of FOX viewers most of whom cannot follow one of my mildly run-on sentences no matter how slowly they read it.

What is petty or irrelevant about asking you those questions? Making such assertions is nothing but a limp-wristed way of avoiding them. As a fact. Nothing to do with arbiters of style and substance.

You gave Herald a little lesson about stochastic process and here you are proving you are unable to defend it.

I don't know what do you mean by 'some kind of life' but it will be O.K. if you can take out some polymer from Mars (that does have terrestrial origin).
As far as the moon of Jupiter - Europa is concerned, I doubt (that you will find anything there). The atmosphere is comprising almost entirely of oxygen (with the exception of few trace gases). If there is some life form there it should be part of an eco-system. Do you think that a single life form can survive too long ... wherever.
As far as your home pet - Set is concerned, tell him that this forum is intended for discussion, only for discussion ... and for nothing else ... and that it does not anticipate bursting of personal complexes.
No one is obliged to tolerate his disgusting manners ... and emotional hog-wash. I am wondering why are you paying attention to him at all.

And you have produced two lists of irrelevant insults in the last day as well as a number of others inter-larded in your dreadful prose.

One thing is painfully obvious. It is just how seriously your lot take all this stuff.

A ******* sheep farmer in the backwoods of Pa setting the Universe in order. What an ego!!

You just use big words in like manner to a pink flower in your lapel.

No, millions and millions does not mean a million millions. "And" has a meaning that is additive not multiplicative.

A planet, Europa is a planet, that doesn't have CO2 in the air? How is that possible after you said the following?

Man, if we could get Herald and Bewildered together in the same thread, that would be non-stop entertainment!

Add Medved and Im on the 50 yard line, BOX seat

Says the "academic" who fled to ignore.

Yeah!! It's a terrible admission isn't it JT? I bet they sulk when their eggs are boiled slightly too hard and spend the rest of the day in stiff-necked indignation mode.

He's not the only one though. And you don't need to have seen a picture of Sherlock Holmes to identify the trolls.

Fragile creatures aren't they?

Jeeze, it's been so long since Medved was threatening us with lawsuits, i'd forgotten about him altogether.

Just look at that "altogether" from somebody giving lectures about the English Language.

He still writes a blog about the "fossilized" human remains found in a coal mine. Ionce wrote as a commenter of his blog about that and reminded him tht the "300 million year old human fossils" were found in A COAL MINE SHAFT . SO the "fossil" had to have come later than the coal mine shaft.
He told me how wrong I was (but I think he quit using the example because it dawned on him that maybe that the " Law of Superposition" ,or sequential excavation in this case, might have something to it)

Before considering the entire 'infield' of the Universe, a not entirely bad idea is to consider our SS ... and the neighboring stars perhaps.
BTW how exactly do you intend to observe Cyanobacteria at the 'edge' of the Universe (as you most probably have noticed, we are in the center of the universe subject to the assertions of the big bang theory that the red shift is equal in all directions).
I don't dare to ask how do you intend to observe Cyanobacteria at a distance of 1 ly (about 1 T km) ... and how will you process the results in two years.

What's wrong with Set's 'altogether', Spendi?

we will have spectrophotometers and sensing equipment much more sensitive than what we have now, Im certain. We can already see a number of the nucleotides (including Uracil) in spectra of star systems in the galaxy. Whaddy think qbout thqt?
we can now sense Carbon 12 over Cqrbon 13 along an entire lab hallway, imagine when we can sense the two different isotopes from deep space. Carbon 12 would be a dead ringer for "life"

I used to run a small industrial analytical research lab in inorganic (rare earth elements) before I was a geologist so back then tools were relatively primitive by todays standards and that's only about 30+ years ago.

NOW GO AHAD AND CHNGE THE SUBJECT AGAIN

The "altogether" is tautological because "forgotten" is an absolute. It is a wasted word for the reader. For the speaker it serves the purpose of extending his yakking longer than necessary.

There is no such thing as nearly forgotten.

That's patently false. And my 'patently' isn't anymore tautological than Set's 'altogether'. It's an intensive.



Isn't this tautological?



Spendi, we can most definitely remember things that we nearly forgot.

I nearly forgot to post a link I wanted to post in the Ted Cruz thread. People often "remember at the last moment" and rush out to do something or other.

Setanta is, many many times, a language boob, but here he is not.
