Thus all these people, and not just atheist evolutionary biologists, have been incited to crime and are at risk of succumbing to the temptation to commit a crime because they do not have a personal relationship with the risen Lord. |
All science so far.
Someone must have cranked up the stupidity dial at UD, 'cause the tard is reaching record levels...
And Janice, should you ever leave UD and stumble across this post... I think you are a c__t. |

Janice wrote (in #42):
“It was just under 20% of the sample.”
Janice is apparently both mathematically and logically impaired. If you add up the percentages listed in my post (#8, above), they total 98.8%. This means that the “non-respondent” frequency was 0.02%, not “just under 20%”. Off by four orders of magnitude…
Furthermore, Janice has taken it upon herself to speculate on my tendency toward a life of crime. Character assassination, while it seems to be the hobby of people like Janice, is not generally considered to be one of the tools of a scholar.
Furthermore, Janice asserts that:
“…all these people, and not just atheist evolutionary biologists, have been incited to crime and are at risk of succumbing to the temptation to commit a crime because they do not have a personal relationship with the risen Lord.”
The abuse of logic and evidence in this quote is so beyond the pale as to require almost no comment. In the complete absence of confirmatory data, Janice has concluded that the criminals who did not indicate their religious beliefs were motivated in their crimes by the lack of “…a personal relationship with the risen Lord.”
Using the same logic, I could assert that they were motivated in their crimes by the lack of their belief in the Tooth Fairy. After all, none of the respondents stated that they either believed or did not believe in the Tooth Fairy. Indeed, their beliefs in the Tooth Fairy were not recorded. According to “Janice logic”, this means that they can be included in the category of “people who were motivated in their crimes by macroevolutionary theory.”
If a student turned in an essay with this kind of twisted logic in one of my courses, they would receive an F and would be recommended for psychological counseling.
