Re: Minnemooseus at Terry's Talk Origins
I would join you, but I am afraid of those people. They scare the crap out of me. I want to know which Oklahoma suburb they did that poll in, because I really have a hard time believing its reflective of the national consensus. A majority of people can't confirm the definition of evolution when given to them?
I am glad you liked the Gould quote. I think it is profoundly important to recognize what he is saying.

Dr. Conundrum proves the point better than hoped. He read the quote then acted it out to the finest details even going so far as to declare himself the victor. In message 25, almost like a self fulfilling prophecy...
"never say anything positive about your own position because it can be attacked, but chip away at what appear to be the weaknesses in your opponent's position." -Gould
Its a beautiful thing.
