Bloodyminded, the only reason why so many people believed in evolution was because they were taught that in school. The only reason why evolution is being taught in school and being passed off as fact is due to the secularist society/system. I never thought I'd get stuck on Dawkins this long....but I just keep stumbling upon all these articles about him, one after the other. He seems to be the gift that keeps on giving. If you've read the numerous quotes I've posted you'd see I'm not the one chipping away at evolution. Scientists are. Besides, there's hardly anything solid to chip away. Evolution is like a dike that keeps leaking in various places. The pro-evolutionists keep plugging the holes to stop the leaks, to keep it from crumbling down. The pro-ID are simply unplugging those holes, and saying "let it go. It's useless. We've got something to replace it."

Two samples of classic maneuver called, "Changing the channel." A variation of Deflection. Interpretation: Desperate. Cannot rebutt.

Yep. And I did said that I intend to focus on him. And then some....

You think. Since when does "you think" be considered in a debate? Besides, that's quite a slanderous claim you've made. Back it up.

Furthermore, here's housekeeping 101 - sweep it under the rug. Ohhh the dirty buggers....

Oh boy, the plot really thickens.... Lewontin said Dawkins uses unsubstantiated materials. And now according to Dawkins' camp, Gould was apparently "so confused as to be hardly worth bothering with.." No wonder their followers are so confused they don't even know whether they're coming or going.

Evolution-wise, you're stumped. Beginning of the universe, you're stumped. It's all guessworks from your corner. Intelligent Design, however deals with both areas you're stumped with. http://philophil.blogspot.com/2008/01/antony-flew-richard-dawkins-and-gerald.html Gerald L. Schroeder is an Orthodox Jewish author and lecturer at Aish HaTorah's Discovery Seminar, Essentials and Fellowships programs and Executive Learning Center,[1] who focuses on what he perceives to be an inherent relationship between science and spirituality Schroeder received his BSc in 1959, his MSc in 1961, and his Ph.D. in nuclear physics and earth and planetary sciences in 1965, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).[2] He worked five years on the staff of the MIT physics department. He was a member of the United States Atomic Energy Commission.[3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Schroeder

So what if they're creationist sites. You can try to debunk them by providing your own rebutt...with your back-up system! Run to TalkOrigin.

Cite. Support that. Cite. Support that. Anyway, the focus of the article is on Dawkins. I'd like to read your comment on this Dawkins' quote: What do you say? Agree?

100 years and counting.....still waiting.... ...and they're still piddling around trying to find anything they can fit in that dark little box.

I also posted the link that critiqued it! And you ignored it.

EH???? Where's your logic in that reply? Creationist scientists have challenged Dawkins and his pals to a grand debate....and Dawkins/pals all cowered away! And you wonder why I often times ignore you?

Interpretation: You got no rebutt.

Dawkins message is loud and clear. I'll only debate Bishops and Cardinals. I'll even settle for the Pope. Heck, blonde bimbos are very much welcome too! But please, no Creationist scientists!!!! Emphasis on SCIENTISTS! I hear ya.

Remove the NDP from the equation. Fits nicely to benefit the Liberals.

And heeeeere's the rebutt! http://www.trueorigin.org/theobald1a.asp On-going "adjustments" and "modifications." Fill-in-the-gaps, more like it.

I guess we're not talking about the same guy. This one's still mean. And now I see, also foolish.

Whoever sez the world's gone to the dogs is dead wrong! Oh boy, now we'll see the price of banana go up!

...or more correctly, hominids. Apes, hominids and man share common ancestors....but we share none with monkeys WHOA there, M Dancer! Live Science doesn't agree with you! Furthermore, Timothy17 seems to understand you more than you understand yourself. http://www.livescience.com/1411-monkey-dna-points-common-human-ancestor.html What a terribly confused bunch!

To tell you the truth, I don't really know much of Pat Robertson. If what you say is true, then he is a radical. Swaggart, from the few times I came across him in the past - and I didn't really stick around to listen enough - all I saw was someone spreading the Gospel. He did have his own style, crying at one point as I recall - if that was Swaggart I'm thinking about. There are preachers who sincerely want to do their Christian duty, same as there are scientists who truly want to know. Dawkins' cannot be taken seriously as a sceintist anymore. And I still suspect that he's losing his mind. But I think the point I'm making to Dre is clear.

Where? If they do, they shouldn't keep it a secret. Tell us!

This article was pointed out to me by one of our community members: http://www.torontosun.com/news/decision2011/2011/03/31/17829856.html How can we believe what we hear from the CBC? Some of us had noticed Liberal-slanted journalism/opinion throughout the years....what more clearer evidence - quite brazen in fact - do we need that the CBC is nothing more than a permanent propaganda tool for the Liberals - funded by the taxpayers! Either that..... ....or it's not a credible source of information at all. You'd think they'd do their homework. I should throw back what the CBC journalists say when they criticised Harper about Bruce Carson: How did they miss this guy's prominent position as Ignatieff's former aadvisor in 2006? To say that they had nothing to do with the methodology is a lame cop-out. The CBC's supposed to be in the business of gathering and researching info! The Liberals/media have been slamming Harper for advertising his government's action plan -which actually has its relevance with its aim at promoting Canada's stability to investors - saying it's a propaganda being paid for by the taxpayers! And yet taxpayers have been continuously funding the CBC for decades. The Liberals have a freebie propaganda tool at our expense! They ask Harper where will the money for his fighter jets come from? He should answer: By axe-ing the CBC!
