Speaking of stamping out dissent, AlphaTard stomps in and reminds Jerry just who's boss:

This I love.

I guess "In the beginning God someone made everything in 6 days.  Then God that same someone rested.  Then there was a great flood and God someone told Noah someone else to put two of every animal on Noah's Ark a boat."

isn't creationist literature either.

I'd assumed that the NEXT bibliography contained the original source but did not do any reading to makecertain

Does OW qualify for "academic free use"? Academic is not the word I first think of to describe that site.

Also, exactly how stupid is Jehu anyway?

If you are so intimidated by opposing view points that would fire a teacher for raising objections to evolution, I think your word view is pretty obvious.

I mean, come on, if you were that brain damaged you'd not b e able to type would ya? But like Jehu himself says

repressing truth in order to protect his fragile world view

I'm starting to think Quintilis is a deep-cover troll just messing with their minds at OE:

Quote
he faults you mention as well as many others might lead one to conclude that God is, at best, indifferent to our plight (and perhaps the Bible was a medieval swindle, complete with a clause cleverly-inserted - much like the one about the appointment of US Attorneys into the PATRIOT Act - allowing the post-Romans to keep eating their pork). The notion of a "perfect" and completely benign God is a relatively recent invention, a sanitized "fact" usually presented to children but generally outgrown even by fundamentalists. Certainly Aristotle didn't think the "gods" perfect and the Jewish YHWH admitted he was "jealous" (hardly a mark of perfection - it seems more like a sign of insecurity).
I don't think much is gained by starting with the supposition that God (or, on this site, the designer) was either perfect or had perfect foresight. Clearly there are flaws and compromises in biological designs; no one is disputing that. And the fact of extinction indicates that perhaps the designer designed without knowledge of how the future would play out. (Although it's POSSIBLE the designer designed dodo birds SPECIFICALLY to supply meat to Dutch and Portuguese sailors for a brief period during the late 1500s - perhaps to help them with their spreading of Christianity. This would seem to confirm that God is Christian and not Islamic - otherwise He would have let the closer-by Arabs do the extinctifying.)
I don't have all the answers and neither does anyone else here. The best we can do is be open to new ideas, non-dogmatic, and bounce theories around. We're all wearing our Science Caps when we're in here and this frees us to debate, play Devil's advocate, and use other rhetorical devices. That way we can approach truth in a reasoned way, not accepting facts unquestioned from oracles and what not.

I have noticed that ID advocates are not afraid of debate or contrary opinions.

It is those who are afraid of debate and attempt to stifle contrary views who have “fragile world-views” and demand special protection.


As evidenced by the moderation policy on your blog and chicken-shit Dembski's non-appearance in court, Jehu.

They've no minds to mess with!
IMHO there are no non-trolls on OW apart from the Mod, TroutMac, Mario and Scen24whatever. It's amazing, I'm surprised it's still running. I guess it's still there because Dembski set it going a while ago and in his reality denying mind it's a roaring success. I mean, if the man cannot detect his name in a list, how can he judge if OW is a worthy challenge to myspace etc? It's not like DS and Dumbski have ever made an appearence over at OW. It's just a tick in the "student outreach" box for them, another $50,000 in the bank from some rich doddering old deluded man no doubt.

I don't think Borne had a shark to jump.

The pitiful thing is he thinks he's setting forth a devastating logical argument that no one's ever thought of before, and which of course will shortly vanquish 'Neodarwinism' once and for all.

I think Borne needs to get out more.

Quote

I am firmly convinced that no theory of human evolution can be regarded as satisfactory unless the revelations of Piltdown are taken into account. ~ Arthur Keith


Of course, he doesn't provide a source for this quote. Was it his The Antiquity of Man from 1915, or perhaps Concerning Man's Origins in 1927?

80 or 90 years ago, some (but by no means all) scientists fell for a deliberate hoax, which was later definitively revealed to be fake. Therefore, all scientists are wrong about everything.

My standard response to every fundie nutter who wants to yammer to me about Piltdown:


Whenever fundies talk about Piltdown Man, they for some odd reason neglect to mention a few things:

First, it was EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGISTS, not creation "scientists", who discovered the Piltdown fraud. The creation 'scientists" were just standing around looking stupid.

Second, many of those evolutionary biologists rejected Piltdown right from the beginning, since it did not fit into the established fossil sequence. While they did not suspect fraud, they did suspect that the jawbone and the skull simply did not belong together.

Third, the evolutionary biologists (not creation 'scientists') who discovered the fraud did it using RADIO-DATING techniques --- the very same ones that creationuts keep telling us are so wildly
inaccurate and unreliable.

And finally, since creationists reject both radio-dating AND the order of the fossil record, they have NO BASIS AT ALL upon which to declare that Piltdown is a fake anyway. Not only did the creation 'scientists' not discover the Pitldown fraud (they were just standing
there looking stupid), but they COULD not have, since they "don't believe in" the very things that led evolutionary biologists to suspect and then demonstrate that it was a fraud.

Since creationists reject radio-dating and the order of the fossil record, it would appear as if they simply have no reason to think that Piltdown IS a fake. . . . . .

I wonder if eugenics is a topic on any 10th grade science curriculum anywhere in the nation. I suspect not.

You suspect wrong. Lots of them do.


He links to this:

On the first page, only one reference actually links k12 curricula eugenics. Dave, ban yourself for posting gash and not researching properly.

This is one reason why people say ID/C is basically parasitic on real science. They reject the scientific method when it offends them, yet are happy to use science's findings if they think it'll help them win an argument.  (But of course, it's never their own scientific findings, since, well, they don't have any...)

I've been similarly troubled by the theory of gravitation, because ideas have consequences.  

If the theory of gravitation is true, and dropping bricks on people's heads from the overpass is a logical consequence of the theory of gravitation, then our idea of the value of life is wrong.  

Under this scheme, any idea on gravitation that implies dropping bricks from the overpass, however brutally applied, is also not wrong.

Therefore, if gravitation is true, human life isn’t worth much more than the lives of lab rats.

I'm converting.

I didn't know where to put this, so picked this as a related forum.  Remember Helphinstine's firing at Sisters, Oregon, for teaching creationism.  His powerpoint presentation is here:

http://www.bendweekly.com/ppt/Eugenics-WEBPAGE_files/frame.htm

Not very subtle, and it is doubtful that many children learned critical thinking by it, as Helphinstine claimed was his goal.

Go easy on Helphinstine, given his handicaps and heros. I caught him leaving the library:

Oh, and it just ocurred to me that according to Ernst Mayr I must be a different species from Inuits. We’re reproductively isolated by geography and there isn’t a snowball’s chance in south central Texas I’d be attracted to an Inuit woman anyhow even though we’re probably still physically compatible on a hypothetical basis sort of like brown bears and polar bears.

Evolving Hardware
William Dembski
Here’s an article on evolving hardware developed by Norwegian scientists. Favorite quote: “Every creature in nature is a product of evolution, and did I mention that creationism is just bull? What the team has done is add evolution to hardware (Norwegian), all hardware that you and I have used so far is made the creationism way, it’s made and can not be changed at runtime through evolution. All changes to existing hardware have to be made through software.” There’s not much detail in this article, but let me venture a guess: when the details come out, we’ll find that intelligent design (which includes evolutionary optimization) outshines unintelligent evolution at every turn.

Hogwash. A class of devices called the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) has been around for almost 25 years. I remember when my Intel Field Service Engineer was hyping Xilinx FPGA’s to me in the mid-1980’s. I presumed Intel had a financial stake in Xilinx. They were way too slow for anything I was doing but they can be reconfigured on the fly, in-circuit, running hot.


Oh, "we’ll find that intelligent design (which includes evolutionary optimization) outshines unintelligent evolution at every turn. " That must be nice. ID works better than evolution because it contains the working bit of evolution.

FPGA's aren't fast enough for cheesypoof configuration.

Chupacabras were documented in a movie, and one of the characters in that movie was a scientist (until he got eaten, anyway). Therefore...

A few months ago, Febble was getting all kinds of flak at UD for suggesting that natural evolutionary mechanisms constitute the intelligence behind the design of biocomplexity.  Now Dembski is saying that intelligent design includes evolutionary optimization, which is exactly what RM+NS is.  Looks like Febble was right.
