So obviously it's of supreme important in supporting the ToE, right? Or, perhaps it has nothing to do with supporting the ToE, and you erred in including it as a fraud that contributes to the public's acceptance of it.

More moving the goalposts yet again.
You shouldn't use adult phrases that you don't understand. I'm not trying to move any goalposts. I'm trying to address your contention that Orce man was responsible for public acceptance of the ToE. What you need to explain now is how that is possible if you can't find any evidence of such contribution.

The fact that it no longer is held up as evidence proves my point that it was in fact a fraud.
Oh dear, you're really having vocabulary problems, aren't you?
In order to prove that it was a fraud, you need to show two things. 1. It was falsely held out as evidence of evolution and 2. those who did so knew it was false. The fact that it is not now held out as evidence doesn't prove either of those things. If you think it does, you need to explain why.

Re: MORE CONDESCENSION FROM THE PSEUDO INTELLECTUALS:
All you have done is prove that reaching the age of 56 doesn't ensure you will be able to use adult phrases properly, Pops.
