Again, an example of Olive-boy's "counterpunching" -- he counters the truth about himself with lies about me.
Kalamata: "For the rest of you, the decay rate of Uranium 235 is constant (the best we can tell.)"
Here our FRiend deliberately obscures the truth about himself in order to appear less than totally insane.
But the real truth is this: his parenthetic "(as best we can tell)" hides the fact that Kalamata believes radiometric decay was only constant during the very brief historical period when we can measure it.
Before that he believes: God set all the radiometric clocks around 10,000 years ago.
So, notice, in order to maintain his beliefs in "Biblical science" Kalamata must deny not only evolution, but also basic physics.
Kalamata: "Joey is (finally) correct.
Scientifically, the orthodox theories of redshifts cannot be proven.
We have no idea how the redshifts were formed, nor if they mean anything, nor if they even exist (that is, the observations may be the result of interference by interstellar matter, which means, "no expansion".)"
Right, again, Kalamata denies not just evolution, but any science, including astronomy, which suggests a Universe older than ~10,000 years.
Kalamata: "Due to modern discoveries of quantized red-shifts and the fine-tuning of the universe, only a scientific illiterate, like Joey, or a die-hard atheist (but I repeat myself) would discount the possibility of the universe being designed."
And here again Kalamata demonstrates that he just can't make his arguments without lying.
Of course the Universe was designed intelligently, by God, and Olive-boy well knows that's my belief, but keeps lying about it, and for what purpose?
Obviously in order to obscure the fact that what Kalamata advocates is not just that God created the Universe, but that He did it according to Kalamata's unique interpretations of Biblical scripture, ~10,000 years ago.
The truth is my beliefs, so far as I can tell, are identical with those taught by most mainline Protestant, Roman Catholic & other traditional churches, which go by the technical name of "theistic evolutionism" meaning, in a nutshell: whatever science now discovers was first created by God.
Kalamata: "BTW, Joey, there was another recent article by a team of evolutionary geneticists that pounded another nail into the coffin of the evolutionism "goto-boy" called Junk DNA.
These are a few excerpts from the article:"
And so yet again with his denier tactics, turning a discussion about technicalities within evolution into Kalamata's argument against evolution.
Here, from the Nature article, for example:
Kalamata: "Your religious prophets of Darwin and Lincoln have been taking a beating lately, Joey."
And yet another Kalamata denier tactic: when you've been pushed back and defeated on every front, like a football team sacked in its own endzone, then get up and declare victory, do your little victory dances and pretend to be the real winner.
Mister Olive worships the ground the Confederate leadership walks on and you're the one with an affinity for racists?

>>Joey wrote: “Again, an example of Olive-boy’s “counterpunching” — he counters the truth about himself with lies about me.”
When Joey cannot find any facts to support his assertions, and he cannot think of a clever comeback, he resorts to sand-box tactics.

Joey cannot seem to grasp the concept of ‘Daughter Elements’.

Joey doesn’t understand physics, either. The existence of our universe, not to mention the existence of life itself, defies the basic laws of physics. The only solution is special creation using laws we cannot comprehend.
For the record, there is no such thing as evolution: not in observable science, not in the laboratory, and not in the fossil record.

Get a grip, Joey? I never deny science: only pseudoscience, such as evolutionism and big-bangism. LOL!

It is strictly a science thing. The geological column shows clear evidence of a global flood

I was a theistic evolutionist, until my eyes were opened by scientific data.

>>Joey quoting Nature: “At least 15% of pseudogenes are transcriptionally active across three phyla, many of which are proximal to conserved regulatory regions. It is estimated that at least new human-specific protein-coding genes were formed by retrotransposition since the divergence from other primates.”
>>Joey wrote: “Notice that in his own quote from Nature there is no argument against evolution, but still Danny uses science’s words to deny science”
Joey cannot tell the difference between scientific data, and an obligatory kiss of Darwin’s ring. A scientist must be able to rightly-divide the data from the ideology, or he will be in the dark as much as Joey.
