Re: Peanut Gallery
Chaoticskunk asks:
1st: just cause i am a n00b here. why call this the peanut gallery?
​
Great Debates are restricted to 1 against 1 so Peanut Galleries are where the rest of us can make comments without intruding on the actual Debate thread.
​
Of course, you are likely to know that the term comes from an old 1950's TV show, Howdy Doody. A certain section of the tv audience was roped off and designated the Peanut Gallery (presumably supplied with bags of peanuts). Every once in a while Buffalo Bob would turn to them and get them involved in the show.

Re: The Guernica conjecture
Straggler asks:
But (and I appreciate this isn't your argument but rather your take on RAZ's argument so my question is somewhat rhetorical) how does this get us to evidence of actual supernatural beings rather than evidence of human belief in the existence of supernatural beings (which is the observable phenomenon bluegenes theory seeks to somewhat explain).
​
Remember: it is not the job of RAZD to provide evidence of any single Supernatural Being yet.

Oni, trying to shrug it off:
​
Bluegenes has no need to take the debate anywhere. Is there really a question that supernatural beings aren't the creation of human beings? It's a silly debate, but Bluegenes has demolished any point RAZD has tried to make.
​
Ah, my friend, it was a much more complicated question. So be it. As Rose Rosanna Danna would say: "Nevermind."
