"If y'all are going to apply a silly set of self-serving "standards" to the ToE, you must -if you are honest- apply that same set of "standards" to all other science.
funny, how that works in practice, isn't it?"
ToE is the highest order of "self-serving standards", fits that standard of some are more "fit" (equal) than the rest, and there is nothing honest about it.
To: RunningWolf
so, 30 years later you are old, half-blind, and decrepit. ;)
I pegged a running wild turkey at 300m with a 30-06 about seven years ago. good enough?

To: Just mythoughts
so you say.
so far, you have never once come close to demonstrating how the ToE is in any way different from any other theory in any branch of science, in terms of evidence, analysis, independent repeatability, methodology, falsifiability, or general predictive utility.
I won't hold my breath waiting for you to manage the feat.

Thanks for that Dots, powerful stuff.
Is this on CSPAN? I need to get cable going again, if only they would let me buy the package I wanted.

and I note, almost as an aside, that you have -as predicted- elected to fail to apply the same standards you use to condemn the ToE (ie: "*GASP!* They just admitted a GAP in the science! The whole thing is a false RELIGION!!!"TM) as a turd to hurl at electromagnetic theory.

what the hell is a "ball" sight, anyway?
there's iron sights (blade-and-notch or post-and-notch, and "peep" or "ghost-ring" which is standard on all M16 variants), there's optics, and there's NVOS... never heard of "ball" sights

No one tries to make that linkage but you evo guys.
Imagine George C. Scott voice "Evo cult, we have an evidence GAP!!"

TOE is not science, the only gravity holding TOE on this earth is weighted in the natural brain of humans. The evolutionists are in for one rude awakening when their flesh dies. TOE is one of those government funded programs that should be allowed to wither on the vine.

Maybe it was post and notch now days

Hmm... I guess I must have just made this up:
"Niles Eldredge and Steven Gould stirred up the mud of Tempo and Mode in Evolution with their paper in 1972 on so-called "punctuated equilibrium". The traditional view of evolution was one of phyletic gradualism. This encompassed slow, gradual change in phenotype and speciation by gradual change from one species into another. The alternative - punctuated equilibrium was put forward as a means of accounting for the ever present "gaps" in the fossil record (see figs. 20.4-20.5, pp. 561-562). Eldredge and Gould argued that the gaps were not artifacts of incomplete representation, but that there were essentially no intermediate forms. The general notion is that long periods of stasis or morphological equilibria are punctuated by periods of rapid morphological change. This is just one of many quotes like this, this one is at
From biomed.brown.edu
I guess you should apologize as you are full of it as proven by this link. You no little of "punctuated-equilibrium" or phylogenic gradualism. Admit it now and be done with it.
To: King Prout
Most definitely an aside as your "GASP!" GAP has nothing to do with anything I have said. My son is studying electromagnetic theory as a electrical engineering student.
To: RunningWolf
This may come as a shock to you, but most of the "evo guys" on these threads are not evolutionary scientists. Many of us are scientists in other fields. Many of us are technicians/technologists in other fields. All of us bridle at the way you "Creo guys" think calling the ToE "just a theory!"tm is a valid argument against the ToE, as we are all well aware that ALL theories in science are "just theories" and ALL have "gaps".

Well communication is the key, and for now take care.

I'll toss a quote from
Oliver Cromwell at you, since you seem
SO certain your interpretation and variant of faith is absolutely correct: "I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken!"
In other words, Justmythoughts, you might want to reflect on the possibility that it is you who are destined for a shock when you die.

then get your son on here and we'll submit the matter for his review.
Does the fact that a scientific theory has gaps in evidence and in the theory's explanatory completeness automatically invalidate the theory. yes or no?
His answer to that question might be enlightening.
