Normally I don't bother when the meaning is clear. But she repeated it in two successive posts.
I assume she meant 40 years. Which is kind of a silly point, since evolution was the accepted theory over 120 years ago.
Government funding is a post-Manhattan-Project phenomenon and has nothing whatsoever to do with the success of Darwin's theory.
Taxrelief, which of MAPs claims do you believe was a typo, and why? MAP hasn't disavowed any of them; so why are you trying to disavow a claim for her? Are your mind-reading skills unusually strong today?
Do you believe in evolution or creation?
Check my post again: I said nothing about a typo. In any event, I post so many typos of my own I would never presume to cast the first stone.
My post was about the tugging sensation I felt on my leg. Maybe it's just me, but somehow when you get to uncited and absurdist claims about a 3% genetic difference between homo sapiens and an ear of corn, and go on to speak of 400 years of US government funding, it is well nigh impossible to avoid feeling we are deep into Monty Python territory.
Why not just stick to the substance of the discussion?
Indeed I have been. The substance of this thread is a discussion about 'scientific illiteracy.' MissAmericanPie is either unwittingly demonstrating precisely what the article is decrying to an extraordinary degree, or else having a lark. I suspect the latter on the grounds that her posts are too absurd to be credible.
