I unfortunately have out most of the day, having lots of fun...little did I realize, that some more fun was being had on this thread...Its taken me a while to catch up from where I left off last evening...but have just now finished up reading the thread...

Two things have really amused me, no, more than amused me, they have made me roar with laughter...

First off, there is poor Mamzelle, and his/her wild imaginings that there is really no group of pro-evolution people on FR...that in fact, those who support evolution can only number 2 or so posters, who obviously operate under many different screennames, and just spend the whole day posting to each other all the time...you know, Mamzelle has tried to float this delusional idea on other threads, I suppose trying to drum up support for this weird notion(and of course, his/her effort is a complete failure)...but, rest assured, he/she will keep trying to push this notion, you work with what little you have got...

And poor Havoc, in post #823, and his wildly absurd statement, that different breeds of dogs cant interbreed...Huh?...at first I thought, just tell that to my mixed breed female a Basset/Beagle mix, who found herself nailed by a huge Rottweiler....she would be so glad to discover, that what she was feeling was all an illusion...Then I told myself, no one could have really said that...and so I had to reread...yep he/she said it...no matter how you try to twist it, he/she did say something, which even a 5 yr old child knows is just not so...

Thanks for the laughs...made my day...

This is actually true. You know this because you are really me. I assume you didn't get the memo I sent myself. :)

My hint to you would be to work on remembering what the conversation is about and who is saying what. Perhaps use the "To [post being replied to]" feature to refresh your memory rather than asking "What are you talking about?"

No, I did not get that memo...I need to remind myself that I need to send you(me in disguise under a different screename), that memo that you are me, and I am you...

Creationism is a gurgling mud-hole, whose turgid, murky waters originate in the bottomless depths of Dark Age ignorance, whence they seep up and discharge the muck of ancient days.

The funniest thing is that for the last 2-3 years this site has been nuking multiple acconts about as fast as they are created. They apparently have some batch job running to do that.

You (me) must have some ingenious way to foil their plans. I (you) must be very smart. :)

It's my (your) dreaded ISP-spoofing software. OK, it isn't software, it's one guy with 20 machines and as many ISP accounts running around the room from one to the other.

I/we really need to put these computers all in one room. I'm/we're really getting worn out.

Time to confess -- I am everyone. It gets so confusing that I have to ping all of myselves just so I can remember all of my multiple identities. My monthly bills from all of my ISPs are amazing.

Neither of us have denied this.

Now your post #1025 is quite a mouthful...You know, I have firm belief in the Bible, and in God...and I do not wish to mock anyone for their religious beliefs...but I am embarrassed by those, who in the name of their faith, absolutely refuse to inform themselves of what ToE actually states...in the name of their faith, they try to dismantle evolution, but how can they, when they have no understanding of what evolution actually states?...

I actually do respect those who hold to creationism, and do it, without denigrating evolution....I have actually had a few discussions with these people via Freepmail, the discussions taking place on Freepmail, because we had gotten away from the main subject being discussed on a particular thread, so we took it to Freepmail, as a courtesy...and those conversations have been very satisfying and enlightening...but they were done with creationists, who have a modicum of knowledge about ToE, and who will willingly admit, that tho ToE can and does make some sense to them, they still reject it...but they never denigrate ToE...we come to an agreement, politely, that we just disagree...all in all, those types of discussions with creationists are the most worthwhile...

But when creationists/IDers insist on making posts which show their obvious lack of knowledge about ToE, yet speak as tho they have studied it, thats just plain silly..how can one argue something they obviously dont even understand?...Nor do they show any imagination or intuitive interest in learning...just a lot of hand waving, blustering, hot air, and denial..

That must be a mess, trying to detect all the multiple accounts...I am glad that they are fully able to detect these multiple accounts...

Make sure they are atheistic, ritualistic and immoral ones while you're at it.

I would like to see the evidence for Selman Waksman. I didn't know him personally (I ain't that old, but I rather doubt he was anti-evolution.

I told you guys last night that Patrick Henry is not only most of the Creationists, but probably Ichy too and jennyp and since we haven't heard from b_sharp lately, that's probably another one.

Have you ever noticed that b_sharp pretends to be Canadian, but has he ever given us a Canadianized answer - hey?

What about the dogs? Are you going to tell me now that it's actually dogs producing dogs that is speciation instead of the corn producing corn. I realize it's much the same thing; but, it's not exactly a change in the level of absurdity..
