Wow, and days later, Mount Egnor erupts. We should have been monitoring the Isn't-stitute on the slopes of the Mount Impossible range. Maybe we should ask the moneyed creationists - the ones who aren't on unemployment, that is - for a grant to study the creationists, since they're so hungry for attention. Who wants to write a grant for the Friday Meltdown? No takers? We could get a Templeton Foundation grant. -------------- Which came first: the shimmy, or the hip?

Neither purple, prose nor satire, although the wisecrack about Madison and Ann Arbor was strangely funny.  Sort of like using the word "kazoo." We all know the best place to hold a Darwinian Conference is San Francisco. So, in the end, I'm at a loss as to Egnor's point, other than the one on the top of his head.  He used the word Darwin-xxx about a dozen times, and the same for creation-xxx, but he mentioned "boycott" a whopping 23 times! Considering Egnor couldn't find either his ass or Louisiana on a map with both hands, I'm at a further loss as to understand why he gives a rat's in the first place. Could it be that the DI is running out of molehills of which to make mountains? So, back to my musings ... Purple Haze?  No. Purple Rain?  No. Barney?  Hmmmmm, possibly. wow quidam you are always on the money. no doc bill I suggest Raging Purple Throbber For Da Jesus. -------------- You're obviously illiterate as hell. Peach, bro.-FtK Finding something hard to believe based on the evidence, is science.-JoeG the odds of getting some loathsome taint are low-- Gordon E Mullings Manjack Heights Montserrat I work on molecular systems with pathway charts and such.-Giggles

The brain is like a cell phone, remember?  He wrote that.   Uh, Egnor, wrong number.  No call list.  F U.

This is the exact opposite:   Quote The American public is Dr. Myers’ employer, and for many years it has patiently underwritten the Darwinist ideological crusade. Americans’ patience will run out someday, and they will decide to use their hard-earned tax money to employ ethical scientists who respect academic freedom and who advance real science, not atheist metaphysics. Translation Egnor - rational: ethical scientists - fundamentalist Christians respect academic freedom - don't say things Egnor doesn't like and don't publish research Egnor doesn't approve of. real science - God did it atheist metaphysics - scientific hypothesis and theories Egnor doesn't like -------------- "Random mutations, if they are truly random, will affect, and potentially damage, any aspect of the organism, [...] Thus, a realistic [computer] simulation [of evolution] would allow the program, OS, and hardware to be affected in a random fashion."

Doc Bill Posts: 1039 Joined: April 2007 (Permalink) Posted: Mar. 05 2009,17:04    OK, true confession time. Because I'm such a nice guy I gave Egnor an escape pod:  it was a hoax. Even if he wrote the thing while stewed he could have taken the pod, done a Dembski "street theater" follow-up and had a few yucks at the expense of the Darwinists who took the bait. Clearly I was wrong, Egnor apparently meant what he wrote and the DI published it on their website as "news." Holy Shamoly!  Is there a shark remaining they have not jumped? I mean, lies and inanity are one thing, but what Egnor writes is completely delusional.

Well other than to have Lacey Cuskin* whine at you in a high pitched nasal drone that makes my hair hurt. Louis *JAD did one thing right, Lacey Cuskin sounds like some special public wig (i.e. not a normal merkin) for "gentlefolk". -------------- Bye.
