Off topic, but I'm really wondering why people on the Skeptical Zone keep leaving Joe links to pictures of bunnies.  Is there an Internet meme I missed during its five minutes of glory or are rabbits to Joe what clowns are to DaveScot?

An internet meme proudly created by our very own Amadan:

http://www.antievolution.org/cgi-bin....y205448


And I better not be ninja'ed by him!

Edited for spellography

Not to step on Amadan's priority or anything, but when I first read his bunny post I wondered if he'd been influenced by this, which I had seen several days earlier and thought was absolutely wonderful.

Guilty, M'Lud

AH HAH A LAWYER. HOMO!

BarryA annoys the YECs at UD:
   
Quote
No matter how long and hard you argue with a YEC proponent you will never convince him based on appeals to the evidence.  Yes, he has the same evidence that you do, but he interprets that evidence within a different interpretive framework.  You might think his interpretive framework is flawed, but you cannot say, as a matter of strict logic, that his interpretive framework must necessarily be flawed.  In other words, you must admit that as a matter of strict logic it is possible for light to be slower now than it was in the past.  And given the premise of some YECs that light is in fact slower now than it was in the past is, their conclusions might then follow.  

He then proceeds to liken the poor YECs with the evil, evil TEs while simultanously criticising the TEs for ignoring the Bible.
   
Quote
TEs are like YECs in this respect — they cling to a scientific view that runs counter to the obvious evidence because of their prior commitments. [...]

Now notice the similarity between TEs and YECs:  Everyone concedes that the universe appears to be billions of years old; everyone concedes that living things appear to have been designed for a purpose.  YECs say the first appearance is an illusion.  TEs  say the second appearance is an illusion. [...]

YECs reject the “obvious” conclusion about the age of the universe because of their prior commitments.  Why do TEs reject the “obvious” conclusion about the design of living things?  Further, why do TEs reject that obvious conclusion in the very teeth of the Biblical injunction to regard the appearance of design as proof of God’s existence (Romans 1).

Too funny.

They all seem to have given up on pretending it is all about science. Although Dembski is still trying:
   
Quote
Theologically speaking, ID imposes few limits and is compatible with God acting at all levels of creation and through all modes of causation. When design is detected, God is active. And when design is not detected, God is still active. This doesn't make ID contentless. Rather, it means that ID is largely neutral with respect to one's doctrine of God, a fact that should not be surprising given that ID is compatible not only with Judeo-Christian theism but also with just about any religious view that regards purpose as basic to reality. ID's content is scientific, not religious or theological. Insofar as it has metaphysical implications, it is in challenging naturalism.

LOL.

So as long as you’re respectful it’s okay to have no clue what you’re talking about?

Also, all science so far (StephenB):
 
Quote
YEC has a different protocol. It begins with an analysis of God’s word and seeks to harmonize the data with it. Science, though, needs it own room to breathe. If science was simply the act of harmonizing the data to match God’s word, it would not have the power to confirm God’s word. On the other hand, if, with its protocol, science corroborates truths found in Scripture, which has a different protocol, that would be far more impressive. Indeed, that is the case. Truths provided by God through his Divine revelation are consistent with truths apprehended through God’s revelation in nature. Faith and reason are perfectly compatible. TEs do not believe this, to their discredit.

Tragic Mishap:
 
Quote
YECs are in the business of Truth. As such, we acknowledge that divine revelation constitutes the highest possible level of truth available. As such, science is flawed if it doesn’t match divine revelation. So the goal of a creation scientist is to match science to divine revelation to make science better.

Tjguy doesn't really like ID:
 
Quote
ID too has a framework through which it interprets the evidence. The ID framework is to accept the basic assumptions and conclusions of science that come out of a uniformitarian framework of interpretation – even if it contradicts the Bible. Then they take those conclusions and go back to the Bible and find a way to read long ages into it. This is a new interpretation of the Bible since Charles Lyell and friends began spreading the uniformitarian doctrine. It also gives priority to scientific conclusions over the historical record of the Bible concerning the flood, tower of Babel, and for some even Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden.

You said that truths provide by God in the Bible are consistent with truths apprehended through nature. We agree that they should be and that is why we use the interpretive framework that we do. Using your framework, biblical truths and the “truths” of nature are not consistent.

StephenB about bible exegesis:
 
Quote
Obviously, we can safely discount anything that liberals pass along to us because we know that they distort the truth and turn it into a lie.

Definitely sig worthy.
 
Quote
You say that science is not inerrant and may produce error. Granted. Still, science sometimes gets it right (or comes close) and when it does, it will harmonize with Scripture properly interpreted, that is, Scripture understood as a faithful interpretation of what the author meant to convey.

Ah, so that is the difference between YECs and IDists. YECs start with the bible and discard all science that disagrees with it. IDists start with the science and discard all science that disagrees with the bible. Obvious!

Quote
When I was in elementary school back in the 1950s a man came into my classroom and talked to the teacher. I was taken into another room by this man. He gave me puzzles to figure out, and timed me with a stop watch. I thought that this was very weird. After these tests I was returned to my classmates with no explanation.

Many years later, upon reflecting about and remembering this event, I asked my mom what this was all about. She told me that as a result of an IQ test I had taken (they did that back in those days) I had scored the highest IQ ever recorded in the local school system at my age level, and my parents were asked to give permission for further testing.

It's not about cheapening any one marriage in particular, it's about cheapen marriage as a whole by allowing more people to experience the misery of failed marriage. See, if we let gays marry then by golly there can be more failed marriages! And conservatives and fundamentalists, being the good "Christians" they are, don't want teh gaz making divorce look bad...err...I mean, are really trying to save the gays from that!

And yes, the evil that is now upon us, homosexualisation of marriage and family -- thus, of community, education and law -- in defiance of the patent creation order, is the full moral equivalent of slavery.
Quote
Likewise, we should note the implication of "members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together."  It should be quite clear from reading between the lines that Mr Obama has long immersed himself in the ideology of the homosexualist activist sub-culture.
Quote
So, should the law now be perverted to pretend that marriage -- a key aspect of creation order for humanity (as the very complementarity of the sexes testifies) --  can be extended by human fiat to same sex unions, that will be what is taught in school, and what will be enforced by the police, by force of law. If you disagree, you will be deemed the moral equivalent of a racist bigot, and subjected to criminal prosecution. Indeed, eventually, you will be seen as a scapegoat for social ills.
Quote
And of course, that ugly issue will be twisted about to blame the victims of the persecution: fanatical bigots, wanting to turn the clock back, hating those who are different from themselves, etc etc.  Sadly, we have been down this sad and dangerous road to persecution before, and Stephen has had many who have followed in his shoes. Worse, even this will be twisted in hostile minds to say that there is a stubbornly hostile and probably insane persecution complex here

KF's mind must be a dark and frightening place. "Insane" definitely was on the list of adjectives that I considered while reading that. Although I enjoyed the part about Obama being immersed in the "homosexualist activist sub-culture".

As expected, it's all the fault of those evil scientists:

I don't think any of us have ever provoked a Gordshite meltdown.
Obama just did exactly that.

And yes, the evil that is now upon us, homosexualisation of marriage and family -- thus, of community, education and law -- in defiance of the patent creation order, is the full moral equivalent of slavery.

Likewise, we should note the implication of "members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together."  It should be quite clear from reading between the lines that Mr Obama has long immersed himself in the ideology of the homosexualist activist sub-culture.

So, should the law now be perverted to pretend that marriage -- a key aspect of creation order for humanity (as the very complementarity of the sexes testifies) --  can be extended by human fiat to same sex unions, that will be what is taught in school, and what will be enforced by the police, by force of law. If you disagree, you will be deemed the moral equivalent of a racist bigot, and subjected to criminal prosecution. Indeed, eventually, you will be seen as a scapegoat for social ills.

And of course, that ugly issue will be twisted about to blame the victims of the persecution: fanatical bigots, wanting to turn the clock back, hating those who are different from themselves, etc etc.  Sadly, we have been down this sad and dangerous road to persecution before, and Stephen has had many who have followed in his shoes. Worse, even this will be twisted in hostile minds to say that there is a stubbornly hostile and probably insane persecution complex here

KF's mind must be a dark and frightening place. "Insane" definitely was on the list of adjectives that I considered while reading that. Although I enjoyed the part about Obama being immersed in the "homosexualist activist sub-culture".

As expected, it's all the fault of those evil scientists:

How the fuck can you guys read that shit?

Seriously, that douchenozzle is so goddamned stupid he gives me a headache halfway through the first paragraph of every single one of his barely-contained masturbatory rants of self-loathing homosexuality. It's like peering into the tormented soul of some poor brain-dead sap chained in the lower levels of Dante's Inferno.

And worse than all that, he's fucking boring on an epic scale.

Gildo has always been desperately insecure about how he is perceived.

See this archetypical post from 2005, the last paragraph in particular.

The tragic fuck even provides links to prove he's not a complete fool..... :D


I would absolutely love to play a game of chess, in person, with that bloviating gasbag.

You're certainly right about his insecurity. I guess having a monstrous IQ (LOL) can't make up for having no balls.

He just can't stop talking about how super smart he is:

IQ, Puzzle Solving, and Darwinism

Many years later, upon reflecting about and remembering this event, I asked my mom what this was all about. She told me that as a result of an IQ test I had taken (they did that back in those days) I had scored the highest IQ ever recorded in the local school system at my age level, and my parents were asked to give permission for further testing.


Wow, Gil, tell us again about your checkers program!

If we're comparing shit: 1540 on GRE, and a year of graduate stuff in Math. And ~20 years programming computers for USAF.
But I can't play the piano and don't have a frilly shirt (mostly wear jeans and Tshirts).
Get over yourself Frilly.

Come the senior year in college, a lot of people from the dorm I'd been in took the GRE. After the results got mailed around, one of the women from the dorm cornered me after a biology lab and went on and on about her freaking amazing score on the test. She elaborated on how graduate schools would be fighting over her application and generally how a high GRE score was just the ticket to paradise everybody should want.

I could have let her go on, said goodbye, and she would have been a happy camper. But no, I had to do something else. I asked her about a question in the math section, one that didn't appear to have the correct answer listed in the choices. She thought about it, then recalled which one she had picked as most likely. Then we had this exchange:

Her: So you took the test, too. What score did you get?

Me: [Score numbers]

Her: I hate you.

Well, numero uno, that people do not buy it is not so perplexing, not since I spent time at NASM hearing parents misinterpret the exhibits for the kiddies and saying things like, "The plane's exhaust pushes the plane through the air." Simple concepts continue to elude the general pop in many sciences.

But, more importantly, number two: I find, whilst skulking about new territories for IDists, such as the comments at Inside Higher Ed, etc., that they are no longer correcting those who mistake ID for theistic evolution (e.g., "God guided evolution" or "Well, I think God had something to do with it," etc.). Yes, this still goes on, and quite frequently, too, even years after Kitzmiller. They - and I do not know if this is Gil and Co. - are quick to correct anyone who says that ID is creationism, but comments that confuse ID with "I accept evolution but believe in God" are left to slide. Which is interesting, because theistic evolutionists are not acceptable to the UDudes.

Interesting? Yes. An evolution of tactics? Probably. Perplexing? No. :) More like, desperate.
