It is frustrating to try to post on this forum and yet have my side victimized by such negative stereotypes, and many times my posts have to spend a disproportionately large amount of time refuting these stereotypes or exposing simple logical fallacies within these stereotypes.
Why don't you post some actual evidence for ID and then we can actually discuss it. I've asked you a couple of time but it seems you'd just perfer to whine that actually present your case.
So how about it? Pop in to one of the MULTIPLE current threads and let's see what the current state of play is with ID research.

And it occurs to me -
quote:
Actions like this put the board one step closer to becoming like TalkOrigins Archive: Exploring the Creation/Evolution Controversy, a site that claims to explore the controversy but is inherently biased towards evolution.
Since the FRONTPAGE of Talk origins says:
The Talk.Origins Archive is a collection of articles and essays, most of which have appeared in talk.origins at one time or another. The primary reason for this archive's existence is to provide mainstream scientific responses to the many frequently asked questions (FAQs) that appear in the talk.origins newsgroup and the frequently rebutted assertions of those advocating intelligent design or other creationist pseudosciences.
Talk origins has NEVER offered equal time to creationism - the position has always been that is rubbish. So that's a strawman.

but you have provided any evidence at all. You've provided some claims from some people who claim that they have some evidence .
I'm starting to think that you don't actually understand what evidence actually is.

Re: Let's get back to abuse
quote:
Once again, while I wouldn't mind getting into an evidence war over specific tenets of ID, it is simply unacceptable withing the context of this forum to argue that ID and creation as a whole are unscientific.
Also, no one has dealt with the negative stereotypes problem that I raised in the second post of my argument.
Because you are fulfilling it? as the "we've got the evidence but I just don't want to present it and OH LOOK SOME KITTENS!" creationist.
why don't you stop your dodging and get over to one of the science forums and present it?

Are you Ever going to head towards the science forums and present any of this evidence? Or do you just plan to whine all night?
Are you like to present any evidence in the science forums within 200 posts or so?

Is there a decent ID forum? I'm still waiting for someone to post to your thread and tell us what the current state of the field is.
Anyone? good ID forum?

Watch your tone - quick way to be booted

Now that's my consulting and pedagogical task for you today, a po;lite thank you would be appreciated.
actually you've misused "pedagogical" as it would apply in this context. It is related to the art, strategies, techniques, and approaches of teaching rather than the actual teaching (althought some web sites don't seem to grasp this). In any case, it's would more specifically be referred to as andragogical.
A polite thank you would be appreciated (because if you want to take that tone, you are sure to get plenty back).

Re: Yet another convoluted condescending rant
Exons Entrons and Talking Genes
Maybe he means - "Exons, Introns, and Talking Genes: The Science Behind the Human Genome Project".
INtrons not entrons.
I notice you got it wrong previously
quote:
Please refer your criticisms to Chris Wills Professor of Biology at UC San Diego and the roughtly 100 scientists who reviewed, edited and otherwise contributed to his work in "Exons Entrons and Talking Genes" from which the above material references were taken.
No need to thank me for correcting you - "well let's say back to the spelling books.

Re: Fundamental lack of understanding of molecular biology
Actually the 8080 was from @1974, the 8086 is what you might be thinking of.
No need to thank me for the correction.
I think the problem is that you are using lots and lots of long words but nobody is convinced that you are actual know what you are on about.
Maybe if you demonstrate that you know something about the basics?
