I can get it!
Doh! You always get the big primes. Darwin Central has corrupted the internet.
Maybe 2000.
Nah! I'm just a rank amateur. I missed by 13 seconds. A lifetime on the prime-slope of FR.
Go figure.
Let me be clear on where I stand on abiogenesis and evolution. From my perspective Abiogenesis, as the hypothesis of chemical evolution creating the first replicator on Earth, is unfalsifiable. But the fact that it is unfalsifiable should not preclude research in that field.
Second, I am not an "anti- evolutionist". I am an anti-Dawkinisist along with other members of that ilk. Evolution happens. Intelligent design, small id, as a mechanism for changing allele frquency happens. No big deal from my seat in the stadium.
Having said all that I would be derelict in not saying that above all I am a creationist.
And there you have it once again.
Another $10k into the Grand Master's already bulging Swiss Bank Account? I don't think so.
Oh I think we can help ya.
:-}
I know. Your lot helped Paul Mirecki really effectively.
I suspect that most Freepers of all sides on the Crevo debate would have a great time at a bar. I'm not certain about a few though...
Probably, my wife tells me I have that sort of effect on folks at times.

I don't drink any more but I think I'll hit the heavy bag a bit before we all get together. :-}
The "Prime" scam brings in a fortune. Further, I've heard rumours that with his ongoing descent into senility the Grand Master is not maintaining the iron grip over financial affairs that he used to. Apparently there are tales of his more senior lackeys making free with the DC fleet of Gulfstream Jets and wild parties involving "substances" and high class women wearing less clothes than is strictly chaste (the Darwinettes). You wouldn't know anything about that would you?
Ummm.... Just because I take the G2 out for a spin (to the Bahamas for lunch) on Thursdays, does not mean I am "doing" anything wrong. (Just ignore the bikini clad babes that deplane after I do... K?
The Grand Master's iron grip on our affairs was never stronger. He is willing to excuse your behavior, but only because he understands that the onset of puberty has temporarily unhinged your mind. Do not confuse his benign indulgence for befuddlement.
lol. Oh give me a break. If he was any more pathetic Jesse Jackson would have shown up. Can we say Tawnya Brawley? "Two guys in a pickup", lol. If it did happen, which no one but Commie leftists think it did, it was more likely some Kansas sheepherders he met in the "cowboy" bar he was in.
Uh Oh... Should I have mentioned the G2???
In any case, we were speaking of atheism being a religion at that point, and that that would make evolution to be its "creation myth."
As opposed to some creation myths, evolution does have some valid descriptive data. I just don't put it together the same way as you do.
