Darwin was just a religiously conflicted naturalist (more of a stamp collector than a scientist)

Dave, it feels like you're deliberately being stupid.
Ask yourself who they'll still be reading and talking about in a hundred years: (a) Darwin or (b) you or c) Dembski
I would ask you to consider how many 'stamp collectors' are still read and cited after a hundred years.
Quit bitching about all them pointy-headed liberal scientists with all them fancy degrees and actually do some fucking research. Bitching about Dawkins endlessly isn't going to get any of you pinheads a Nobel Prize. |
superb!
One thing. 100 years? Far, far too long. I think in 15 years time Dembski will be unemployable, DaveScot "uber-tard" will be running his own blog flinging shit on the walls (readership 10), and nobody will be talking about CSI or SC at all. I think this because to me the main difference between long lived and short lived scams is that the long lived ones claim little predictive power. ID claims to have potential to do great things, make new discovery's and overturn old thinking in actual scientists but how long will the people outside the little clique (you hear the same names, over and over and over, same people posting the same arguments on the same blogs) wait for actual results? Something else will come along to scoop them up in a cloud of mis-information. Will they wait another 5 years? 10? 20? And then when all the followers are gone, nobody will be buying the books or putting money in the begging bowl (I.E Paying to see the creation "museum") and it'll all be over and forgotten about.
Perhaps ID will mutate into something else that will persist and maintain the popularity it has now, but unless somebody does something soon it'll go the way of them injuns who made all those arrows. Or not, because we can't prove (or speak about) who designed the arrows and their intentions and where they are now, but you know what I mean! |
