“Living Fossils”

I thought this was a thread about the Democrat Party Leadership . . .

Here we go again,
Just how do you know it’s millions of years old?
Please explain that to the rest of us?
Why don’t you call it what it is?
A theory and nothing more.
Notice how they never use the notion of we believe it to be.
That’s because it would be classified a religion.
You have to believe....

You should rethink your statement and change your tag.

It is clear you do NOT know what a Scientific Theory is. If you did you would not put your ignorance on display.

Hint: a Scientific Theory is NOY a “guess all grown up.”

Even if you eschew science you should not embrace ignorance.

They live in a gold mine. They don’t need to go anywhere.

We should take appropriate precautions and wear masks while walking to your restaurant table, then take the mask off

Are you serious? How do they know the age of a rock? Do they have a birth certificate?

Yes. Yes they do.

You should see their antiquated filing system, though.

(more ignorance on FR? really?)

“They had the same makeup, and so we started scratching our heads.” Like a bunch of monkeys that they are. Pure conjecture, nothing more.

Sounds a lot like Marxism. Lays dormant for years, then rears it’s ugly head.

They were fun until the CREVO wars. ;)

But the ignorance proudly on display is sometimes breathtaking.
