That has to be one of the weirdest threads EVER.

Somehow Clive still manages to pile up the tard even higher:

 
Quote
I think you’re pet theory may be right. The derivative of the original creation was changed as a result of the fall, and as a result death was introduced into the world. Remember also that prior to the flood, there were no carnivorous animals, so two dispensational changes have occurred (fall and flood) to get to the present, both of which had physiological impacts on the very created order of nature and all of life.

(my bold)

WTF? Prior to the flood? I thought it was prior to the fall, which is weird enough.

Note how he says "remember" -- as if Clive and his deranged YEC buddies were actual witnesses.

Prior to the "Flood" meat was forbidden and then allowed afterward. See Genesis 9:3.  :D  :D  :D

Consciousness doesn’t store anything in the brain. Long-term memories aren’t found in the brain. Brain aren’t hard drives and neuro-scientists only establish correlations between brain states and states of consciousness. The usual objection is: but then how come when you get brain damage or Parkinson’s you can’t remember things? But, if your car breaks down do you immediately think you are your car?

Brains are super cool but too many people have been brainwashed by Hollywood to think that brains are computers, people are animals and loose behavior is the norm.

We are fortunate indeed to be able to share these extracts from Dan Brown's new book, Faith and Flagella. Sadly, the pages are not all contiguous, but I'm sure that Onlookers will see what a thrilling, uplifting read it is.

The idea of doing a UD Dan Brown kind of bubbled up about a month ago but I left it to ferment. I was bored today trying to write an article on the Lisbon Treaty so I gave up and just threw it together over about 3 hours. Doing the book formatting took about 45 mins.

Amadan - OUTSTANDING!  I want to buy the whole book, and of course the movie rights.

Somebody has GOT to have a puppet to sacrifice - you could dine out free for years on telling the story of how this went over at UD!

In related news, sorry it took so long to comment, but I have found new way to pay the bills, and so, can not be playing on my favorite sites... until I break in the new boss correctly.

Shouldn't need to work out, maybe you could just mate in front of a pic of Arnie.

Gen 30:37-39:
And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chesnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods. And he set the rods which he had pilled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink. And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.


hahahahahahaha

PZ sez “epigenetics isn’t Lamarkism”?

Let’s see Larmarkism is the inheritance of acquired traits.

With epigenetics organisms can inherit acquired traits (agouti mice).

It is obvious that the two have nuthin’ in common- that is if you are a complete dolt.

An Open Letter to Karl Giberson
Cornelius Hunter
Dr. Karl Giberson
President, BioLogos Foundation

Dear Dr. Giberson:

As a professor, author and President of the BioLogos Foundation, you have powerful communication tools at your disposal. You have access to major media outlets and you speak with scientific authority. In short, you are a teacher with a very large audience. This is an enormous teaching responsibility which I am sure you take seriously. For this reason I want to alert you to a fundamental mistake which you and the BioLogos Foundation have made. Given the magnitude of your teaching responsibility I hope that you will carefully consider this situation and take the appropriate corrective measures.   Read more
And when you read more, you find the Fundamental Mistake:
Quote
Your mistake is that you present evolution as a well-established scientific fact.
Unfortunately, he's being too polite.  Not too much chance of another Conservapedia debacle.  But it should be interesting anyway.

Let's see what UD wil make out of this.

Oh now that's interesting.  I'm co-author on a paper about gene regulation on the stickleback sex chromosome.

That is so cool! Sticklebacks are almost as cool as primates. Is there a link to the paper you co-authored?

No, it's still under review.  But there's plenty more stickleback goodness here (I'm the Clive Hayden wannabe for that blog)

Rasputin keeps the ball rolling with KF, by explaining the difference between what is being simulated (evolutionary mechanisms) and what is taken as given (the laws of physics) in antennae design with GA's.  Of course, KF should understand this already, having penned well over 20,000 words on GA's in the past few weeks alone.

Will KF understand the difference?  Magic 8-Ball says "Ask again later".

I think I've found the new ID 'filter' on this the skin pigmentation thread: if someone makes a pretty YouTube video they understand-then its in the realm of Evolution.  If they don't understand it, the system is designed.

http://www.uncommondescent.com/evoluti....omments

"....this could actually be an example of genuine Darwinian evolution."

"...Anyway, it’s pretty darn strong evidence for Darwinian evolution."

"Actually, this is exactly the kind of thing that I think is totally driven by Darwinian evolution — modification of the frequency of existing alleles."

Umm.....are the thought police on vacation? They better hurry back before their followers see this:
