That common objection to evolution is from those who think they are making scientific progress by arguing such things as "random chance" while denying anything that suggests the opposite by making a religious issue out of it. They easily lose their own strawman argument. But that ends up being used in their favor by blaming their victims who were either misinformed or were correct all along but have to be ridiculed and humiliated anyway, by claiming the opposite is instead true.

This is an issue where the "science defender" needs to get on the same page as everyone else. But from the looks of the comments that's not going happen. I just see more of the usual bashing of victims who respond to the (misconception based) strawman arguments with a valid counterargument that ends up being made of straw too.

GG is Flagged again for incomprehensible composition, contorted thinking, twisted syntax & general stupidity.

Can't argue with any of that.

But to be fair to Gary: flagging him for general stupidity, on a thread where Byers posts?  That's a bit uncalled for.

There isn't any probability that the letter d is in the word "mathematics"...  The correct answer would be "not even 0" - JoeG
