ho ho, “educated” pirates shouldn’t spell that word with a j. tsk, tsk, tsk. So much fer yer theory on me being a retarded 19 y.o. punk, harharhar.
Wait a minute, I’m half and half between you being a joke or a schizophrenic.
I think we have just run squarely into Morgan’s Law.
That being “as the number of pages in an evolution/religion/politics thread increases, the probability that one or both of the parties will start talking like a pirate approaches 1.”
Im sorry for the spelling, it’s always been a problem of mine. I have nothing to prove to you about my intelligence seeing as how i’m apparently arguing with a retarded pirate.
heres a poem right off the top of my head, it’s entitled “The Missing Link”
“pushme oh pushme”,
a man once said,
"why oh why is it that you’re sick in the head?
You’re name should imply
that you’re one stand out guy,
but your plainly a fat bloated pirate instead.
You have a plethora of facts
which you use to confuse
designate, order, and misuse,
but the truth still remains
as we all can think,
evolution is real, you’re the missing link!
har har har!!! Shiver me Timbers that was a good one! Yar, you also missed me joke about being “inundated with indignation” about you’re flood comment, har har har!
Sky
Other than you once again got your “your” and “you’re” backwards again I must admit you could be nothing but a genius.
Funny thing: I have a 20 year old son who thinks he a genius too. I love him more than anything and he is a smart, hardworking kid but he too thinks his pa just aint got things figgered out like he does.
My contribution:
Once met a stripling named Sky
He thinks he’s a clever guy
But his noggin was lackin
He’s too busy attackin
A sea-farin’ pirate like I

I have literally taken every major IQ test know to man. My mothers a psycologist, and I’m pretty sure I could adminster the test myself. I see no reason why she would lie to me, after all she was the one who told me santa and the easter bunny were rea… oh fuck.
By your own admittance there were those on the list I provided that are not of those whom you implicitly condemn.
Well, there are quite a few names that didn’t make your list, but who were listed on other lists. I simply found a common denominator (Cedarville), which is certainly not THE common denominator.
I was not aware of this “denominator” to be honest. In your mind are all these people somehow discredited because of their association with Cedarville? Their intellects are tainted? They are goofy fucks because they have a faith in God that you do not share?[/quote]
So far as I understand, I did nothing to “condemn” or “discredit” any of the scientists on your list, nor the five Cedarville Creationist scientists whom you did not mention.
By the way, for your edification, they are:
Dr. Donald Baumann, Solid State Physics, Professor of Biology and Chemistry
Dr. Leroy Eimers, Atmospheric Science, Professor of Physics and Mathematics
Dr. Dennis Flentge, Ph.D. Physical Chemistry, Professor of Chemistry and Chair of the Department of Science and Mathematics
Dr. Heather Kuruvilla, Plant Physiology, Senior Professor of Biology
Dr. Dennis Sullivan, Biology, surgery, chemistry, Professor of Biology
To be honest, I was unaware of Cedarville University. Perhaps all creationists are well acquainted with it, just as all physicists are well acquainted with Princeton or CERN. The Dean of Natural Sciences gave a mission statement for the school, which I thought encapsulated perfectly the ideology of a scientist who attempts to reconcile his science with his faith, and quoted it herewith.
If that sounded like condemnation and discredit to you, then all I can say is that ye needs to swab out yer ear-holes, matey.

I recognize that the alleged vegistiality of the appendix is used as “evidence” of evolution but that is disputable, laddie. In fact, it’s disputable precisely because of its usefulness as part of the immune system. Why do ye wish to argue with me on this? Go find something with a little more weight.
And yes, I caught the inundate reference. I should’ve batted it back at ye with something clever. Sorry. I’ll try not to screw up again.[/quote]
hear ya go matey 29+ Evidences for Macroevolution: Part 2
I especially like the bit about snakes with tiny legs and pelvis’ bones. What would be the purpose of those, in pirate terms?
Good grief, are you characters still going around in circles after 17 and a half pages? Why don’t you just get down to brass tacks?
The central idea behind the theory of evolution is common descent with modification. That is, according to the theory of evolution, every known living organism is the indirect offspring of a single primordial organism in an unbroken chain of reproduction.
This theory is the result of well-reasoned arguments supported by a lot of circumstantial evidence, and it is generally accepted by practically all professional biologists as the best available model for how the wide variety of organisms on Earth came to be.
Push disputes this central claim of evolutionary theory. While he accepts that an organism’s offspring may be different from their parent in some ways, he does not accept that these differences can lead to dramatic morphological changes over the course of many generations. By implication, all of the organisms alive today must not be the offspring of a single primordial organism.
Since it is impossible to challenge Push’s skepticism by providing even more evidence, I suggest that Push should explain his alternative theory in more detail. If all organisms are not related by common descent, where did all of the various extant species come from?
If humans are not the offspring of some early species of hominid, and if those hominids were not the offspring of some earlier type of mammal, and an even earlier type of reptile (and so on), then where did modern humans come from?
The same question could be posed for any of the millions of known types of organisms alive today, but pick any single one and explain in at least a general way how it came to be.
So heres a question for the self-proclaimed geniuses, and scientific minds of this thread: All of the shit that makes up humans today had to come from somewhere. Where did it come from? Everything has a genesis.

You are in no position to make any such guarantee, oh man, proud man, drest in a little brief authority, most ignorant of what he’s most assured…[/quote]
…i’m in no position to make such guarantee, but you are? What does you little bible say about hubris?
