Please tell me 1 single thing that ID explains that is currently not explained.
If not, then 1 single thing that ID explains more plausibly then is current accepted. |
Again, as soon as one of ya explain to me whats currently accepted |
What's with creationists' inordinate fondness for using "ya" instead of "you" (FL, JoeG, etc.)? It's almost like it's meant to emphasize the slack-jawed stupidity of the ideas being advanced--as if the standard incompetence in spelling and grammar isn't enough of a clue. |
It's:
a) sarcastic arrogance (they think their drivel is the equal of science, thus they themselves in their ignorance are the equal of someone who actually knows what they are talking about)
b) profoundly anti-intellectual (they discount actual knowledge, actual study, actual effort as being unworthy of them or at least worthless because it contradicts them, they thus eschew the trappings of intellectual life, for example by pretending to be "just plain folks").
It's the psychology that underpins this crap that fascinates me the most nowadays.
