Disrupter: Attaching a descriptive label to the process does not make it something other than a process.

A label would be a noun – but wait, you said this earlier:

Disrupter (earlier): "Verbs", as you may or may not recall, denote actions, and "nouns" denote things.

Can a noun denote actions? Is “Football Game” a noun or a verb? Is it an action or a thing?

Okay, it's pretty obvious why you suggested that I was changing the subject - you want to change the subject from your illiterate proposition that "evolution as cosmology" is somehow a meaningful construct, but you want to distract attention from you doing the changing yourself.

Whatever. It won't work, since that sort of thing is generally only adequate for fooling the severely retarded and the very young, but go ahead and do it if you like. I'll just be over here calling attention to the basic emptiness of this "evolution as cosmology" thing.
