Wonderful indeed!

What now remains for CSI aficionados is to test their pet hypothesis by the calculation of the CSI of any subject of their chosing. Is that too much to ask? Wouldn't that be the proper way of doing it, sciency, like?

Doesn't the claim that there are objects of complexity beyond computability imply that there are objects below that limit, and therefore are computable?

A demonstration of the computability of CSI therefore is what the world needs right now. The world is waiting for the Sunrise, according to Les Paul and Mary Ford.

No ,what it means is when they ask their pet (preferably an African Grey) what is the CSI of a sock or mouth, the answer is foot.

Norwegian Blue seems more appropriate, ID being bereft of life, etc...

At UD rich said to gordo, in this thread:

"If this happened, it is reprehensible. If you can provide details we’ll see what can be done on ‘our end”."

And:

"KF – can you PM me here?

If you can forward the relevant communications from the wrong-doers I’ll work with the moderators at the sites I frequent to try and take action."

Hi Rich, why via PM? Why not out in the open? gordo's false accusations are aimed at me, and I have no problem with keeping everything out in the open. I have nothing to hide. gordo is just making shit up and has no "details" or "relevant communications" to provide. You'll see when he doesn't provide any.

*If* it's true that his family is being attacked then that's not cool we should all condemn it - I wouldn't want their details in public. But I think KF has a tendency, how do I put this kindly... to exaggerate a bit.

The UD regulars were already throwing fits over this new open posting policy where they actually have to defend their stupidity instead of the usual circle-jerk.  Now Laddy GaGa has discovered he's unbanned and has started posting his usual drivel.

Anybody would care to explain WHY Darwinists demand a scientific method to detect design in nature for what is obvious to everyone but them…?

Because lots of things that seem obvious turn out to not be true.


WJM:

By this same argument, because a lot of things that seem obvious turn out to be true, we should accept all things that seem obvious as true.

Rich, you should already be fully aware of the fact that gordon elliott mullings is, among other deplorable things, a chronically blatant liar, malicious false accuser, massive exaggerator, and all-around paranoid nutcase. Since you apparently need more evidence of that, I suggest that you read comments 286 through 412 in the UD thread linked below (you can ignore the comments by batshit77). Pay special attention to the comments by franklin and gordo.

http://tinyurl.com/avyvxjv....avyvxjv

And feel free to look at the rest of that thread to see if I am leaving anything relevant out by suggesting the reading of comments 286 through 412.

By the way, tonight is the first time I have seen and read that thread, but I already knew that gordo is full of SHIT.

Since Gordo is full of shit, as are must of his arguments, he might construe the suggestion of an enema to be a death threat. Right Gordon?

But they have also kept that OP at the top of the main page the entire time. I don't remember seeing this tactic in the past. But I could be wrong. But you will also notice that the number of different anti-ID commenters has significantly decreased since the initial amnesty. I don't know how much if this decrease is due to banning, but I do know for certain that banning and moderation is back on the table. The big difference is that Barry has stopped making the bannings public.

I'm beginning to wonder if Barry unbanned some science commenters just to keep the morons like JoeTard, Phoodoo, Mapou, Andre, etc. busy while News does her other threads.

Maybe there was method in his madness.   :O

Methinks those are like oversimplified descriptions of some of the constraints that are actually implied by the theory of evolution. Which I guess makes them more effective to readers who don't double-check stuff.

I was on Jersey a couple of weeks ago and visited the Durrell wildlife Centre where I was interested to learn about the efforts to save the Mountain chicken from extinction. I see from press reports that fifty frogs bred at Durrell were released back into the wild on Montserrat just recently.

I did have to smile that this involved funding from the Darwin Initiative.


Maybe the results of googling "Darwin Initiative" KF's real last name is why he gets so mad if someone mentions it.

Rich, has gordo PMed you and provided you with supporting evidence for his accusations?

Keep in mind that gordo has been making his unsupported accusations for a long time. To him the evidence would be vitally important and his anal-retentive proclivities would certainly mean that he would have the evidence very well organized and immediately available in a computer file, likely with added links and graphics along with thousands of words of explanation. He has claimed multiple times to have presented the evidence to local and international law enforcement agencies and to a lawyer.

So where's the evidence?

UD Announces General Amnesty
October 21, 2014 Posted by Barry Arrington

Today UD editors completely deleted both their “banned” list and their “comment moderation” list. Anyone in the world with access to the internet is currently free to comment on the site.

I (i.e., Barry Arrington) am almost certainly going to regret this decision and sooner rather than later. There were hundreds of trolls trapped in the “banned” and “moderation” queues. Frankly, images of this scene from Ghostbusters went through my mind as a pressed the “release” button.


WTF???

Someone please contact DaveTard and get him over there.  Please? I don't ask for much, but I need to see that.

+1.

+2

seconded

...coff... Dave tard clears throat..

LISTEN UP GIRLYMEN IF YOUALL THINK I'M GO BACK TO THE SAME BLARG AS THAT ASSBACKWARDS MORPHODYKE YOU HAVE MUSHROOMS IN YOUR HEADS.

I'M NEVER GOING BACK UNLESS BARRY HANDS OVER THE PASSWORDS AND GETS ME A COFFEE ON HIS WAY OUT.

THEN THINGS WILL DIFFERENT. FIRST OFF I'LL SEND JANIEBELL SOME FLOWERS AND THEN SWING THE BAN HAMMER ON KF FOR STEALING MY TAGLINE PS PPS SIGS.

THEN I'LL INVITE JOE OVER TO FIX MY FRIDGES AND WHEN HE BENDS OVER AND SHOWS ME HISS ASS CRACK I'LL SET MY DOGS ON HIM. IF HE COMPLAINS THE SHERIFF AND ME WILL GET OUR CHAINSAWS OUT AND GIVE HIM A BIT OF TEXAS HOSPITALITY.

UD CAN ROT IN HELL.
