No, that would be another one of your many errors. I'm not a scientist though I do have a couple of science degrees, one post grad. I have published in another non-related discipline; my other post-grad degree.
So now that we're finished measuring dicks and just so you don't feel like you have to say it again, I will not be commenting on your mathematics. It's not my subject, though your absurd misunderstandings of very basic probability are visible even to me.
But I'm very happy to put you right on gods, beliefs and atheism - the actual reason you're here and a subject you keep poking your nose out on before pulling it right back behind your little mathematical smokescreen.
How about you get out of your closet and discuss your real agenda?

You haven't measured anything. You just babble nonsense about Kiwi birds.

If only you fish-to-mammals aficionados could correctly explain the physics and mathematics of the Lenski and Kishony experiments, but that kind of physics and mathematics is not in your indoctrination. Too bad for those suffering from drug-resistant infections and failed cancer treatments. Why don't you try to put the world right for them?

So now in your tangled mind you add paranoia to your delusions. Is the correct explanation of the physics and mathematics of evolution that frightening to you?

His actual motive might be a vendetta against Alan Kleinman.

That's an interesting thought. Alan Kleinman and his Church went to Court over a parking easement - it was established that he hadn't paid a $30 fee for the easement. I'm guessing his church was a bit peeved about things.

Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

I'd post more about math and physics but you were not indoctrinated into those scientific disciplines. Just retreat back into your pseudo-scientific delusional world that you use to justify your atheism.

Oh, no! There is plenty more to say to the tin-foil hat wearing fish-to-mammals aficionados. The tin-foil hat wearing fish-to-mammals aficionados still need to learn how to do DNA phylogenetics correctly.

There is no end to the fish-to-mammals aficionados' fiction story telling. Too bad you fish-to-mammals aficionados don't understand physics and math. You might be able to tell a non-fiction story about evolution.

More to say? That's rich, coming from the guy who keeps repeating the same childish mantra over and over again.
And at least try to get it right: it isn't fish to mammals. Fish and mammals are distant cousins. They have a common ancestor, not a direct line of descent. Fish-great-great-great... grandpa was also mammal-great-great-great... grandpa.

Why doesn't the fish-to-mammal aficionado from a frozen wasteland allow his brain to thaw out? The multiplication rule of probabilities is not a mantra, it is a mathematical fact of life.

You mathematically incompetent ding-dong fish-to-mammals aficionados can't even explain the mathematics of direct descendants correctly. So instead, you banana-pick your genes to do your DNA phylogenetics to show you are related to bananas. This is the kind of stupidity that causes drug-resistant infections and failed cancer treatments.

Oh boy, the tangled mind is now going to explain to us the physics and mathematics of evolution. He going to do that by presenting the correct mathematics for the Kishony and Lenski evolution experiments. NOT!

Don't confuse your delusions with actually seeing things. You fish-to-mammals aficionados definitely haven't presented the correct mathematics for the Kishony and Lenski experiments. And actually, my abacus is made primarily from silicon. And what it says is your notion of fish evolving into mammals is mathematically irrational. What's worse is that your delusions contribute to drug-resistant infections and failed cancer treatments. You should really stop indoctrinating naive school children with your mathematically irrational mythology. It is harming people. Can't any of you atheists do math?

Like I say, anytime you're ready, let's start talking about your faith and my atheism. Stop hiding.
