Re: While your waiting.....
The "Society for the Advancement of Real Science" Denounces Intelligent Design.
​
and you know what this 'society' is do you? Please fill in some details of your understanding rather than just posting links.

In case you and others didn't figure out on your own

I was leaving that to see if he knew. You know I think he didn't . It seems possible to me. I wish you hadn't told.

Re: Examining DarkStar's Quotes
Darn good job, Percy. Thanks
​
I think we could do with a particular approach to quote mining. One thing that should be asked for from the miner is their own interpretation of what the quote is saying and of what the expanded context is (even if it is not there).
​
Once that is established then the full context should be asked for.
​
I feel that only be establishing what the quote "means" to the miner can you more clearly show the errors.

Re: One good fraud deserves another.....
...before we can legitimately continue offering this as a premier example of natural selection in the wild.
​
Isn't "premier" simply being the most famous which comes from being "oldest" and in lots of old text books.
​
How big a deal is this now? Are there other examples that could replace this is the textbooks didn't have so much "momentum"?
