Kind of like what evo scientists do when they have a dictionary different from the rest of us????

We use the same dictionary; we know that you can't just pick out of a hat which definition of a word you will use. Words like "theory" have long established meanings in science; so much so that the first definition you will usually find of "theory" is the scientific one. Anti-evos have to jump to the 4th or 5th definition in order to make it look like theory is a wild-ass guess. That sort of postmodernist technique is a direct attack on the language; this is usually a Leftist agenda. Destroy the language and words can mean anything you want them to.
Deliberately ignoring what words mean is not conservative.

The evo-freakboys got together and decided on a list of definitions for here on FR. Then they spam that list endlessly, like it's an authority. Just refuse to credit it, ask "why should I take your particular list seriously?" They'd love to believe they can set the terms.

Its quite obvious, that you have no idea what I am talking about, and that you have no real intention to make further serious inquiries...so be it...you fail to understand that when studying anything scientific, it is best to understand what the words mean in the 'scientific' context...'willfull ignorance' is a phrase that has been used many times on the various Crevo threads, and you certainly display as such, and seem happy doing so...good luck with that, you will need it...
