Joe,

If you want to discuss something with me this is the place to do so.

In fact, if you want to discuss something with us then the place to do so is this thread.

Funny how the one place not open to censorship in your favour is also the least frequented of all your hangouts.

Not that funny at all I suppose. How you liking PT? To your taste? Converted anyone yet?

He bailed, actually. I guess no-one took him up on his trolling for hits at his site.

Let x = $10 and y = $20

The set {x,y} contains $30

the power set { {}, {x}, {y}, {x, y} } also contains $30.

$30 = $30


Does anyone disagree with that?

If you disagree can you provide a valid resource that agrees with you?

the fact that you are discussing set-theory and decide that the test for set equilavency is based on adding the items of the set shows how dumb or dishonest you are.

Joe G:

And I did find this on power sets:


As an example, the power set of {1, 2, 3} is {{1, 2, 3}, {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {2, 3}, {1}, {2}, {3}, ?}. The cardinality of the original set is 3, and the cardinality of the power set is 2[^]3 = 8. This relationship is one of the reasons for the terminology power set.


IOW oleg is exposed as an ******* with an agenda for continuing to deny the difference and insist a power set is a set.


Yeah, everyone knows that a power set is only a form of set.

He seems to be confusing a set with the union of the sets that happen to be elements of that set. I don't know if it's even possible for a non-null set to be equal to the union of all its member sets (using the axioms that are more or less standard for set theory, that is).

Maybe Joe just uses different axioms.

He probably thinks an axiom is the spaceship from Wall-E

I was taught in my secular math classes that a power set is a set.

But now I know all power is the Lord's.

That would be nice.  

Someone would have to print an English<->Gibberish dictionary, though.

I'm a little hazy on my set theory these days, but based on Joe's approach, shouldn't the power set be 60?

'cause I get {{0}, {10}, {20}, {30}} = 60

...and 60 /=30

Joe never spelled out precisely how his operation of converting sets to dollar amounts works, so it's not clear.  But yeah, I think $60 would make more sense.

His position seems to have changed slightly, though:

Yeah, but that's only if you treat it as an actual set. I got the impression that Joe thought it was a functional condition.

I went to his blog and what an absolute train wreck. Are you sure that he isn't eight years old?

How about "The Four Fundamental Entities of Intelligent Design" where he thinks that plasma is another Entity apart from energy or matter. This almost cost me a keyboard.

No. Just no. This is what we here call "A Bad Idea".

Some of the hardier TARD Miners brave the wilds of the internet to find precious gems of hard TARD. Personally I find the Zen approach to TARD more effective. There is so much TARD around, and so many fine TARD procurers and gatherers (with well shielded keyboards, monitors and irony meters), that the student of TARD never need move from under his metaphorical blossom filled cherry tree, where the calm contemplation of the TARD may occur. This allows the contemplative TARD student to understand the inner TARD, the tao of the TARD. By allowing the TARD to come to me, I may never get the TARD I want, but I always get the TARD I need.

Of course if you have a laminated keyboard, waxed monitor, and an Ironymatic 3000 HovindProofed LeadShield™ Osmotron Mark 4 Irony Meter (buried in the appropriate irony bunker of course) then feel free to venture to these blogs. Frankly, I gave up going to these places after my fourth irony meter spontaneously combusted. I even went into irony meter design for a while, it's just not worth the effort.

I'm with you, Louis. I confess, I just can't do it anymore. When I read just the first line of any blog post from anyone of those tard clowns, I immediately feel like I tripped and feel in poo. It just stinks and I get revolted. I'm sure I need to learn to appreciate it in a different light - seeing it more like comical farce and old slapstick - but I think that takes time.

I with you Louis - the view from under the blossom-laden tree with the the lovely fresh air and a good glass of wine is just fine, thank you.

Joey claims:

With that said to measure biological information, ie biological specification, all you have to do is count the coding nucleotides of the genes involved for that functioning system and then multiply by 2 (four possible nucleotides = 2^2).


So, by this measure, there is  no such thing as an 'original' gene and a mutated one with less information.

I wonder if little Joey considered that he just shot down a major YEC/ID claim?

For a case like that, I think his reasonable request is simply for a live video feed of any mutation as it takes place along with a notarized affidavit from the Teh Designer waiving all purposeful intentions to said mutation.

Well you do get those big, big TARD bucks.

And the exposure to TARD has exfoliated you brilliantly, you look 20 years younger. No, really. You do.
