Re: The purpose of science
Hi vapourwave,
Let the record show that the evolutionists here were the first to start talking about gods and designers in this discussion. (as usual)
"Let the record show", God, how pompous. But hey, by all means, let the record show;

The typical rebuttal here has the evolutionist quickly retreating to teleological territory and he begins rambling about how a Creator could do X or Y, etc....

No-one mentioned creators before you did, in only your second message I might add. I find it hard to imagine why you would tell a lie that is so easily disproved by the record of this thread.
Fact is, until you brought up creators everyone was happily discussing phylogenetics, without any mention of your imaginary friends.

Re: The purpose of science
vaporwave, your sad attempts to weasel out of your lies fool no-one.
I did not invoke creation/intelligent design as any part of an argument.
No, you brought it up as generalised smear against other participants. So-goddamn-what? That's not what you accused people of;

You vaporwave were, beyond question, the first to start talking about gods and designers in this discussion. To pretend otherwise is a lie.
I just anticipated the evolutionists would and then they did.
Because you brought it up.
The record of this thread quite clearly shows that you originally brought up creators. People responded to that. You then attacked them for bringing it up.
I've seen some pathetic antics from creationists, but this is truly pitiful. It's almost as if you don't realise that the stuff you write is available to check.
