Evolutionists managing to bribe or otherwise influence one ignorant and corrupt judge does not make evolution into anything other than junk science.

Aren't there laws concerning libel?

You'll present evidence of bribery, I'm sure. A creationist certainly wouldn't LIE would he?

Funny how your link does not show in any way that anybody bribed the Dover judge or that he is in anyway corrupt, as you have claimed. Do you normally spread around baseless slander or is it just something new for this thread?

"Aren't there laws concerning libel?"


Sweet, wasn't it? I think he covered his rear concerning "bribe" by adding "or otherwise influence." Yes, they influenced him. How? With facts and logical arguments.

The accusation of ignorance can probably pass -- but "corrupt" seems to border on libel. I know there is some exemption at some level for public figures -- but I am not conversant on these laws, so I don't know.

Another comment:

Branning insists he is not anti-evolution and does not endorse teaching creationism or "intelligent design." He said the group he founded, called Integrity in Academics, includes others who, like himself, want the whole picture of the origins of life shown to students. ...

Sounds like this Branning kid should try some academics first, and then worry about reforming it. (Talk about wet behind the ears!)

Ah -- but what it DOES show is pretty entertaining. It claims that evolution violates the laws of chemistry, biology, mathematics, and physics. I'll give you one guess as to the "laws of physics" it is said to violate. LOL!

I wonder why we don't hear from all those chemists, mathematicians, biologists, and physicists. Have they never heard of evolution? Or are they all corrupt and bribed, too?

And yet he doesn't know that evolution does not address the "origins of life" -- and he wants to persuade?

Thanks.

Don't make fun of that site. Look at the expert credentials. ;-)

"Phillip D. Collins acted as the editor for The Hidden Face of Terrorism. He has also written articles for Paranoia Magazine, MKzine, News With Views, B.I.P.E.D.: The Official Website of Darwinian Dissent and Conspiracy Archive. He has an Associate of Arts and Science. Currently, he is studying for a bachelor's degree in Communications at Wright State University. During the course of his seven-year college career, Phillip has studied philosophy, religion, and classic literature." 

Seven years of college and an A.A. to show for it!

<< AS near as I can tell, the biggest group of people opposed to evolution is mathematicians and not Christians. Evolution cannot be reconciled with modern mathematics, as the articles on evolutionisimpossible.com note. >>


By far the greatest number are evangelical and fundamentalist Christians. Among fundamentalists -- I would be surprised to see that it wasn't virtually 100%. Among evangelicals, the percentage is not nearly that high, but it is good number.

Outside of that camp, the largest number, in my experience, come from engineering. Physicists, chemists, biologists, and mathematicians that oppose evolution are quite rare.

I'm actually impressed by that, it only took me five to get my bachelor's. I would have loved to know how to avoid the real world that long.

one can be corrupted by desiring that "strange new respect" bestowed upon those who hew to the liberal elitist line, especially those who are slightly suspect,as having been appointed by a troglodyte president.

Darwinism hasn't been real science for well over 100 years.

You continue to assert this, but you have not once provided any evidence to support this claim. Repeating this false claim will not make you correct. It only demonstrates that you are unwilling to learn.

Please support the claim of criminal bribery. Your statement could amount to libel if you are unable to support it.
