betsy Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Well, I could adopt your tactic and say: "It's back where you wrote it. Go read through what you wrote." But, well, here you go, replete with infantile fonts, emoticons, and taunting: I conceded your point about not all creationists believing the Earth is 6,000 years old. Ergo, that wasn't the argument you were referring to when you said Creationist argument is supported by the fact that anthropologists and archaeologists are still investigating the way the ancestors of all humans spread around the world. In the same post quoted above, you went on to say: Since you raised that, was that the Creationist argument you were referring to? I want to be clear. Where's the cite to what you said I've stated??? Were you trying to put words in my mouth??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIP Posted January 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Whether evangelicals sites are "seizing on this dispute" is not the issue. That's irrelevant. And not just evangelicals. For some reason nazi sites like Stormfront and Vanguard were also running with that story....they seem to really get bent out of shape by the prospect of Europeans having some Neanderthal blood for some reason also. Now, if I recall, the issue is that Texas public school boards are promoting pseudoscience in the classroom, like teaching that all human races are Noah's descendents. You have never elaborated on your theory of human origins, so maybe you'd like to tell us how Neanderthals and Denisovans fit into the picture. Are they descendents of Adam and Eve or did God create these other human races before them. Or, are these human relatives descendents of either of Noah's three sons......can't wait to find out.

Guest Manny Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Real facts apparently count for nothing. Which facts, the ones you've been told to believe today? Or the ones we thought were true just a few years ago, but now are no longer? Pluto's a planet? Rabbits are giant squirrels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smallc Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Which facts, the ones you've been told to believe today? Or the ones we thought were true just a few years ago, but now are no longer? We gained new knowledge, and we refined our understanding. Religion doesn't offer that kind of ever increasing clarity.

There little back arrow at the top left of every quote that takes you back to the post that quote is from. Here. Which I've already explained to you. Bye-bye bambino. If you cannot provide the cite where I said what you claim I said, bambino:that wasn't the argument you were referring to when you said Creationist argument is supported by the fact that anthropologists and archaeologists are still investigating the way the ancestors of all humans spread around the world. ....then I can only assume that either you've got serious comprehension skills, or you're now resorting to dishonesty. Anyway, as you don't even think archeology is a science....that sums up everything about you. In which case, I don't want to waste my time on you. Bye.

BubberMiley Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Archaeology is the study of human history and prehistory through the excavation of sites and the analysis of artifacts. You can apply the scientific method to further analyze the artifacts, but archaeology, in and of itself, is not a science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercoma Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 The systematic analysis of data is considered a scientific endeavour, so archaeology is both a social science and a humanity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the ones we thought were true just a few years ago, but now are no longer? Pluto's a planet? Rabbits are giant squirrels? The mods can ban me, but you are a dumb f__k. Pluto being classified a planet or not, that's the best you got to try to invalidate science? It's just a classification scheme, Pluto was at the borderline for this scheme and they decided it's no longer classified as a planet Same with taxonomy (you could look up the meaning if you need to.) Besty, that you say is kicking ass, wets herself when science seems to agree with some details in the bible. (As you would expect with a people's history). Then thinks she's proven a point if science is uncertain about something, says not enough is known about the subject, or new information changes the theories. That's exactly what's powerful about science - the ability to change it's mind, to be open to new information. Unlike Betsy and her ilk. I think you and Betsy are disgusting, quite frankly. Just slithering around making bs arguments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Manny Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I prefer to use examples for scientists like Galileo. He was despised by other establishment scientists, because he undermined their nice comfortable world view. Even among themselves they can't decide whats true. They had to give up everything they believed in, and did so most regrettably. Someone had to disassemble the Ptolomeic machine. took so long to get it sorta working... specially the part that goes retrograde... damn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "cite" is provided; you say it has not been. I say I believe archaeology is a science; you say I don't. But, beyond the deliberate obfuscating, your snitty "bye-bye"s say the most: you can't handle being made to deal with your own contradictions. "Bye-bye" is for you a contraction of "I'm going to withdraw into my tightly controlled little world where my hypocricy- and denial-supported belief system that makes me feel good can remain standing and unchallenged".
