Which means that according to Dembski's EF Jesus himself designed this:



Praise be the Lord!

I don't know why the UD folks don't agree with me here. I'm pretty sure I followed the approved "How to calculate shit to arrive at some meaningless number with a lot of zeros to impress the rubes" method of ID math.

Uhhh...that's not Jesus. It's Tommy Iommi from Black Sabbath. The image even shows his iconic left-handed Fender. Here's a pic that's nearly identical to the mold image:



Now THAT'S scary coincodink! So...uhh...what the heck are they doing in that shower anyway?

oh man everything we know about jesus appearing on shit is FUCKING WRONG

SABBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATHHHHH

Sal mines another quote

For those interested in the original, which I am sure Sal has read and omitted by accident:

By the way, this made me fall off the wagon (UD-free since Ash Wednesday), getting back on now, the indirect IDiocy suffices.

i am still sober but i am enjoying the piss out of catching up on this thread.  i'm glad you drunks are still around

Sal's a wonderful human being.


That is all anybody needs to know about you.

and that aint no shit neither, old bean

in fact i doubt that anyone has ever said that in the history of that bag of shit named sal.  so this makes me think that this asshole is either really stupid or really shitty at trollin

listen, fuckface.  trolling, like science, is a art.  and it is a art in which you always fail.  stick with what you know, which in your case probably aint that much.  so, in that case, stick it in your ass.

I agree completely but in that monument to sanctimony, creationist zealotry, homophobia, and bigotry that gordo puked up, he did pose one good question (that pertains to everything he has ever said):

"But, what is the relevance of all this?"

And in the words of Perry Mason or Hamilton Burger, the answer is that everything gordo says is "irrelevant, incompetent, and immaterial".

That The Bible says it, therefore I believe it thread is a classic of ID "science".

For one thing, the aptly named Tragic Mishap gives us a link to his website, Mishmash Paddywhack where we learn that Mr. Tragic has written a book!

It appears to be a Lulu production, but it's also available on Amazon. as "A Mishmash Paddywhack".  It's er ... pretty much like Trag's postings.  

It doesn't have any ratings yet and there are no sales figures i.e. no"(35,449 in Tard)", possibly because nobody has bought a copy yet.  However, there are 7 new copies available and 1 used.

Interestingly, the one used copy is available from "Housing Works Bookstore Cafe" and "All profits go to Housing Works -- NYC's largest HIV/AIDS organization."

I'm sure there's an intersting story behind that.

One of the "Works Cited" is V.J. Torley in a thread on Uncommon Descent.

You can read excerpts from it on Amazon if you're very easily amused.

I love watching Upright Biped and kairosfocus just annihilate the trolls who pollute U.D. It's such a joy. kairosfocus is especially brilliant. It's no wonder he's so hated here. He's like LeBron James -- so brilliant at what he does that it's almost scary.

Every single one of you who have had the balls to face kairosfocus in the debating circle  have been severely trounced. Every one of your claims have been demolished. He is a one-man, Darwinist-destroying machine.

How many of you wake up in the middle of the night with cold sweats after having nightmares of kairosfocus? Be honest. His superior intellect scares you.

oh, do go on!

The theme song for UD (yes, it's from Camp Rock... fuck off)

I'm too cool for my dress
These shades don't leave my head
Everything you say is so irrelevant
You follow and I lead
You want to be like me
But your just a wannabe
love it or hate it

I can't help the way I am
Hope you don't misunderstand

Cause I'm too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you
You think your hot but I'm sorry, you're not
Exactly who you think you are
Can't tell you what you haven't got
When we walk into the room
I'm too cool for you

Lucky I'm so nice
Even I'm surprised
You are still allowed to be in my crew
Show you how it's done
If you want to be someone
Just watch me and you'll learn some

Me, myself, and I agree
You'll never catch up with me

Cause I'm too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you
You think your hot but I'm sorry, you're not
Exactly who you think you are
Can't tell you what you haven't got
When we walk into the room
I'm too cool for you

You see I'm all beauty, brains, and talents
I got it all
Well others have to try all their lives
Still they never get the call
That's the difference between you and me
Obviously
I'm a natural
I'm the real deal

I can't help the way I am
Hope you don't misunderstand

But I'm too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you

Too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you

When will these lying, cheating, evidence tampering, delusional, anti-science lunatics be brought to justice?

Aside from holding science hostage for the past 150+ years, their anti-life ideology is responsible for the deaths and suffering of many.

I propose a truth and reconciliation committee. Those responsible for this heinous crime against humanity would be given the chance to come clean and make right their many wrongs.

How much longer are we expected to tolerate this atheist creation myth?

I notice on Montserrat's Wikipedia page that no one with the initials GEM is listed in the section "Famous Montserratians."  An oversight, surely.

The population of the island is less than six thousand, spread over a number of towns and villages.  I wonder how many know kairosfocus by name?

i had a friend look him up while he was there once.  a few people knew him, apparently, but all agreed that he was a reclusive nutcase who did not participate in everyday social activities in the community.  they also were hesitant to talk about him to this stranger because they feared him for some reason, perhaps having to do with the "school".  or maybe he had talked a few goats to death.  i dunno.

my buddy only managed to get a few details from the people, and I had not told him how crazy the fool he was to be investigating might be so i suspect that kind of fear might have been contagious because he looked no longer.  but really, what was my alternative, to expose an onlooker to that fountain of tard and just walk away and let them deal with it?  the humanity

Given his fearful reaction to people using his real name I would guess that those who know of him refer to him as either 'you know who' or 'he who shall not be named'

Or maybe just occasionally 'The dark lord'

I suspect he's known as "that poor man" by people who then put their arms protectively around their children and cross the street to avoid him.

Rumour has it Montserrat's new marketing phrase is:

"Montserrat - Mullings = Paradise!"

Personally I find G.E.M to be truly outrageous.

Of course, the scientific explanation is that the designer keeps watching over his creation, adding and deleting features as needed. The Lord giveth and he taketh away.

Robert Byers must have read my post:

Instead it shows a innate triggering system that gives and takes such pads as need arrises.
Its just like human colour.
It happened suddenly upon need and so mechanisms are there in biology to bring this about.
Just as it would be if a creator makes so that creatures can survive.

So, according to byers, humans can become different colors suddenly? Hmm, that's interesting but it makes me wonder why black people don't suddenly become white if they move to Scandinavia and why white people don't suddenly become black if they move to Kenya. I guess the innate triggering system must be malfunctioning.

Well, it is scientifically established that Hawaiians can become Kenyan if they're elected President!

I wonder if this post by The Whole Truth is what set KF off??

Well, at the time I thought it was a bit drastic. But the lady in question linked Dahmer with Darwin shortly afterwards.

Although I've made fun of KF quite often myself I wonder if it wouldn't be better to just ignore him. UD is dead and I doubt that any poor soul over there would really read KF's writings. In addition, I must admit that I've stopped reading the whole truth's comments quite some time ago because I don't like his obsessed style and because they are rather about what he thinks is KF's personality than contributing much to the discussion about UD/ID. He is repeating the same stories again and again, most of it being just ad hominem and I really don't like his illustrations.

this this this this this this

1Prince of EternityJuly 11, 2012 at 12:49 pm
The scientific materialist elite who dominate the media and academia say there’s global WARMING… but real science shows there’s global COOLING… *Snicker*

Further evidence of the moral bankruptcy of the evolutionary materialist elite. The REAL science described in the paper shows that the Earth COOLED at a rate of 0.3 degrees C per millenium, up until about the year 1900.

So we can expect that this trend will subtract 0.03 degrees Celsius from Earth’s temperature in the coming century! Ha ha! That’s a reduction of 0.05 degrees Fahrenheit, per century!

So much for the materialistic fanatic “scientists” with their databases of “observations” and “measurements” and their fancy “math” who projected so-called “greenhouse gases” will increase so-called “temperature” by 5 degrees Fahrenheit in the next “century”!

Buh-bye, 5 degree F increase *Snicker*. So sorry, Soviet central planners of the atheist Darwinist elite! We’re subtracting 0.05 degrees Fahrenheit from your atheistic worldview, and there’s nothing you can do about it.

And look, look at the squiggly graph of the climate trend for the last 2000 years, the graph in the linked article.

Notice how the temperature only starts to increase about the year 1900? 1900– the very time that society’s elites abandoned traditional Christian values and converted to evolutionary-materialistic philosophy!

Oh, like I’m sure THAT’S a coincidence! *snicker* Coincidence? Or the beginning of the atheist evo-materialist fraud?

Intelligent Design is real science. “Global warming” and “computer models” and “temperature” are believed on faith. And faith is all you have.

Dear pagan environmentalist tree-huggers: Go flush your database of “observations” and “math equations” down the toilet.

Meanwhile, I’m going to go fire up my high-lead coal-fired grill and cook me some baby penguin. And there’s nothing you liberals can do about it.




that's beautiful, man

[Quoting Joe G]: The main problem with simulations is that you cannot simulate what you do not understand. And that is where evolution comes in- no one understands it so no one can simulate it.

Amen raised to the Xth power, where X is large. Joe’s comment encapsulates the essence of my thesis, expressed with far fewer words and much more eloquently.

That alone cracked me up. Joe Gallien, the paragon of eloquence!

And here is a bonus, in case you forgot how smart Gil is:
 
Quote
I’ve always been a detail guy — whether learning, memorizing, and performing every single note in an 80-page piano score of a Rachmaninoff piano concerto, or writing complex computer programs — but immersion in detail can deceive one into not being aware of the overarching theme.


But enough about me! Time to dump on the evilutionists:
 
Quote
Darwinists are hopelessly lost in the speculative details of their theory, which they must propose and defend at any cost — forget reason or evidence — because to do otherwise would be to admit that their materialistic worldview is indefensible and that design is evident.


And now back to our regular programming:
 
Quote
The reason I make my posts at UD is that I was once in the Darwinist camp. I was thoroughly indoctrinated with Darwinian argumentation from childhood, through college, and beyond.

But then one day I was exposed to rational argumentation and evidence that convinced me that I had been deceived, and that Darwinism was never about science, but about a long-awaited creation myth for a materialistic, nihilistic religion.


We LOVE you, Gil! We cherish every word you write about yourself.

Ever since k.e.. posted his er... review of Montseratt, I've been doing some Googling of the travel pages and it looks like a thousand bucks will buy you round trip airfare from Chicago in Feburary which is probably the height of the tourist season.

You can rent a beach house on a cliff overlooking the ocean for $45 a night and if you have any spare marbles that have to be moved through a garden hose, that will run you $50-$60.  There seems to be sufficient alcohol available on the island and the local constabulary hauls in an occasional thousand marijuana plants from the surrounding mountainsides, which means that there are probably another 9000 they miss, so that's taken care of.

In short, I'm thinking of an Uncommonly Dense February meet-n-greet on the other "Emerald Isle".  We could soak up the sun, play in the surf, go snorkling, investigate the night life, race marbles through hoses and maybe on Sunday morning go to church and listen to the one and only Kairos Focus preach live.

Or, we might get lucky and the volcano would blow up the whole island, thus saving us from KF.  Either way, it would be a vacation to remember.

if this becomes a go i'm in!

Has Access Research Network gone the way of the designed Dodo?

http://www.arn.org/....arn....arn.org

Hm.
Interesting.
My guess is, somebody didn't bother to pay the site hosting fees, and this is what ARN's host does when a site's owner doesn't pay. If this is true, ARN will be back online as soon as the relevant person notices the problem and corrects it.
No, I don't care to speculate on when that will occur. Given that the site has been dormant-to-dead for years, it's entirely possible that the people behind it may have finally given up…

We could go for the complete meltdown by holding a Tantra workshop on Montseratt.  I know a few teachers who could probably be convinced if there were enough guaranteed attendees.

This is an ideological hit piece in the guise of research. An arts student will not normally be in a position to evaluate a technical scientific case on a controversial matter, even if she has some phil and history of sci. Communication strategies have little or nothing to do with it.

A sad day for Commonwealth learning.

   [...]To see design theory application in specific fields, including molecular biology, biochemistry, paleontology, physics and cosmology in the natural sciences, psychology, ethics, politics, theology and philosophy in the humanities; to see its influence in the fine arts.
   To see design theory permeate our religious, cultural, moral and political life.


You see, the whole ID thing never had anything to do with science. Thus, it is only fair if Chrisitne investigates how the DI's spin works.

But that's not actually the issue. The main problem that you, scordova and the other UD  misogynists have with Chrisitne is the fact that she is a woman.

That means I'm going to have to cancel my trip to Montserrat and get a ticket to Jamaica, then.
