RAZD is taking his time; being patient and not letting any details go by.
I'm enjoying looking over his shoulder

Seconded. "Magisterial" is the word that comes to mind.

I concur with the nomination and second Omni's use of the word 'magisterial.'
Bravo, RAZD. You've posted one for the ages. Archer All species are transitional.

he goes through, I think, a total of 40 odd points in two posts, and does an excellent job, I think, of getting his refutations of S1WC's essay.

Heartily seconded. I hope that once the debate, such as it is, is concluded, we can archive those posts as a "must read" on this website. Classic point-by-point refutations. I'll add that I'm looking forward to S1WC's response.

Author: Omnivorous
Forum: Showcase Thread: Intellectual Enemies of Freedom Message: Determinism and indeterminacy (post 4) In some of the most inspired and creative writing I've seen in a long time, Omni "showcases" how an analogy, taken to its logical conclusion, proves the original intent of the person who used it to be completely erroneous. A sample:quote: I only wish I could write as clearly as this. It's almost a shame the rhetoric is embedded in a discussion with one of the forum's more, hmmm, problematic posters. I don't suggest it is wasted - after all, we all can read and enjoy it - but I have to say it's too bad the recipient will probably be unable to appreciate it as it deserves.

Thank you, Quetzal. I have consigned myself to purgatory to relearn and discipline my craft

I'm glad someone nominated this. I was going to but didn't get around to it. It was a great post; one of the best I've read here.

Forum: Is it Science? Thread: What IS science and what is NOT science? Post: #144 Though I may have raised my eyebrow at his admin activity in that thread, when he finally stepped from behind the admin curtain I think he delivered a nice concise breakdown of science. I think it is worthwhile for those who do not understand how it operates to look there first. I could think of a few tweaks, but they are not necessary for a better understanding of science. holmes {in temp decloak from lurker mode} "What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away."

Forum: Is it Science? Thread: What is science... what is NOT science? Post: #233 I think this was a very clearly worded explanation on the mistake creationists make when discussing hypotheses in science, as well as how such are used. Between Percy and Straggler's posts in this thread, I am not sure how much clearer the nature of science and how its methods conflict with those of creationism could be. Edited by holmes, : clarity Edited by AdminModulous, : editted the message url to read 233#233 rather than 231#233 so it should work no matter what forum settings you use. holmes {in temp decloak from lurker mode} "What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away."
