Humility does not trump having actual facts, and arguments derived therefrom. You've been offered science's arguments. Anti up, or you don't get dealt cards. Whining because the exact right person to show you science's hand isn't available is transparent avoidance.
And why should I care what you, a simple Apprentice Goatherder, thinks? Science's arguments? And who are you to evaluate "science's arguments?" Are these not the same people who think George Bush a terrorist? The majority are anti-simites, also. But, I understood when I posted my response that there are those whose arrogance and narcissism is so overbearing that they would just repeat their pompous taunts. Thank you for making my point.
But I must say, your only contribution to the debate seems to be "look at all these people I think are smart, and if you don't listen to them, you're a dummy!" Folks like you are simply chatter to the real debaters. Unless you make some real point, and refrain from childish insults, I shall ignore you henceforth. And be careful not to step into any goatpoop. I'm sure it smells up the shanty.
Well, I believe I can return the complement. Science has been weathering authority figure worshippers for about 300 years with pretty good success, and will weather your celebrity-based notions of reliable argumentation.

The majority of scientists are anti-simites who think George Bush is a terrorist. Have I got that right?

And I understood when I signed on to this gig, that I would be talking to people who wouldn't address the evidence if it fell on them like a ton of bricks, preferring to engage in a constant barrage of distracting perseflage and personal slurs about, say, goatherding, to coming to grips with any concrete issue they might actually have to reason about.
But I must say, your only contribution to the debate seems to be "look at all these people I think are smart, and if you don't listen to them, you're a dummy!"
Really? I thought you were the science-celebrity worshiper here? Aren't you the one unwilling to take pointers to the evidence from a mere goatherder? Can you show me an example where I said something approximating "look at all these people I think are smart, and if you don't listen to them, you're a dummy? Or is this just another episode in your endless steam of rude, billious empty rhetoric?

We've grown quite used to lightweight creationist wannabe's here at FR, who try to dress up their irresponsible, substanceless ramblings with a laughable attempt to pretend that they are the Adult to our Child. The fact is, you are just about utterly ignorant of the situation you would be trying to criticize, and show no sign of intending to remedy the situation, as long as you can shoot off your mouth instead.
Unless you make some real point, and refrain from childish insults, I shall ignore you henceforth.
Sure you will. Seing as how you are such a careful and scrupuous arguer.
And be careful not to step into any goatpoop. I'm sure it smells up the shanty.
Thank you for the carefully reasoned, fact-filled argument. I stand in awe of your rhetorical clarity, charity and honesty.
