So humans exist to make the universe taste better to whomever is going to eat it?

That sounds about 50 IQ points higher than Hedy Lamarr.

That's probably why the great composer, Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern-schplenden-schlitter-crasscrenbon-fried-digger-dingle-dangle-dongle-dungle-burstein-von-knacker-thrasher-apple-banger-horowitz-ticolensic-grander-knotty-spelltinkle-grandlich-grumblemeyer-spelterwasser-kurstlich-himbleeisen-bahnwagen-gutenabend-bitte-ein-nürnburger- bratwustle-gerspurten-mitz-weimache-luber-hundsfut-gumberaber-shönedanker-kalbsfleisch-mittler-aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm, changed his stage name to Fred.

"Those chinese Snake things ( I think those are what you are thinking of) haven't changed for centuries either. They were introducted to some ponds here in ND and on Ohio and are a pest fish because they do the same thing that walking catfish fish does, cross from pond to pond. The bad thing about them is that they eat all the other fish and take over the pond. then they go to the next. That's why they are banned here. they don't have lungs or any feet, they can go about two miles before they die I believe. They drained ponds around here to try kill them off, fearing that they would get into a major river. "I've had a catfish live for 36 hours out of the water. I forgot about it and was suprized to find it still alive. A tough fish isn't evidence of evolution though.
I take it that the way biologists (ichthyologists) check for lungs or float bladders by chasing fish across land to see how long they survive? I thought they dissected the fish and analyzed what they found within it before making claims.
Oh, btw, do the snakeheads die of asphyxiation or dehydration.
Is it necessary for a transitional organism to have fully developed lungs that allow it to survive totally on the oxygen from the air or should it have partially effective lungs that allow it to survive for a limited time out of water?

That's a bit overly literal. Anyway, your comment brought it to mind and I thought it an interesting twist.

Sorry, bad habit of mine. I admonish all my countrymen who have a tendency to do so, not to overgeneralize about Americans. It's OK to attack the policies of a government, but not the general population. IMHO.

Abiogenesis, or life from non-life postulates that early life started with self-replicating chemicals, something we have observed,Which ones?

He epitomizes the attitude and tactics of a number of creo posters on these threads (most of whom have eventually been banned). You, on the other hand, epitomize a second type of creationist -- the "word lawyer."
One of these days I'm going to record the various kinds of arguments/posters I've come across on these threads.

One of these days I'm going to record the various kinds of arguments/posters I've come across on these threads. I attempted something like that, a few years ago. I think it's buried in one of your early compendiums (or compendia).

Not among people who actually study science. Most people don't know what a molecule is either.

From this
Fox public opinion poll:
"Do you personally believe in the existence of each of the following? . . . "
UFOs 34%
Ghosts 34%
Astrology 29%
Reincarnation 25%
Witches 24%
It's down near the bottom. To find it, search on "ghosts."

I find it interesting that only one evolutionist bothered to reply to your most detailed post; and it wasn't very coherent.
Seems to me that if you were wrong in your citations of Darwin, Gould, and others; they would have pointed it out.

The ironic thing is, that unless we were created and our creator reveals itself, we will never really know who is right.
To: Right Wing Professor
LOL! Careful, your multiple personality disorder is showing.
Which one?
