AND YOU CAN'T MAKE ME SEE ANY ANY OF IT!

Is evolution real?
That was not a claim. It was an example of how the math works. I thought it would be obvious.
Good luck. I abandoned the thread when it got stupid.
LOLL!
Hey, Patrick, may I use the troll thing below? I'm gonna use it on Usenet to look important, you know, as if it came from my feeble mind. It is well written.
Thank you very much.
If you prefer I will give credit to the author, that is, you, PatrickHenry.
I can't stop laughing about it becuase is so true of trolls and very fitting. I know. I can attest to it.
"Are you inadequate online? Are you feeling inferior because you have no education? Are you so stupid that no one will respond to you? When they do respond, is it only point out your errors in spelling, grammar and logic? Would you like to become the life of the thread? Then be a troll! Yes, now you too can be a real internet troll!
Trolls always have a good time, and their posts get lots of responses. As a troll, you're sure to be the center of attention. Other trolls will praise your posts. Never again will your comments be ignored, merely because you don't know what you're talking about. And as a troll, you'll enjoy the power you have to ruin any thread just by showing up and trolling. Oh, the fun!
"Trolling is easy. It's simple. And the beauty of it is ... you don't have to know anything! Here's a complete catalog of an evolution troll's intellectual inventory. Just print out this toolkit, and use one or two items at random every time you post. Don't worry if someone refutes you. Just repeat your earlier post. Then keep on trolling! They'll go crazy! Guaranteed!
He's a good writer too.
Must have a college education. I never went to college :).
Ah, a backhanded slap at my "ignorance". So, someone uses a "mathematical model" to claim that 1/1000 elephants are fossilized (although no evidence for this claim has been found), and it is accepted as truth because some mathematician did "the math". Ain't science wonderful.
Been there; done that.
I shall follow your wise lead. It's a nice day out and there are none so blind as those who will not see.
If you are unwilling to substantiate your assertions, then there is no further cause for discussion.
Substantiation of assertions can only be made by evos on this thread. Noone else has anything to add to the discussion as per evos position. This was made clear to me on earlier threads. Thus, you are correct; no further discussion can be had.

"Order your Unknowledge Troll Kit today; and we'll throw in a companion manual "Anti-Science for Luddites" as a free bonus. And remember, no edjucashun or intellectual ability is required to be an "Unknowledge Troll -- an obnoxious sense of entitlement to disrupt discussions of people far smarter and better edjukated that you are is all you need! ORDER TODAY, AND BE ALL YOU CAN BE!"
I think that these threads are good and promote healthy discourse.
Certainly Gould was an apologist for the Theory of Evolution. Nevertheless, right or wrong, the man was brilliant.
By the way, as far as I know FR is a secular site, not a religious one.
This was my final post. Eight more votes came in later, but I don't think they would change anything:
The vote total is 5,441. The important votes are from those who have expressed an opinion on the poll question, so I'm ignoring all votes for "undecided" or "pass." Those with an opinion have voted as follows:
Yes (put creationism in science class) 3,063 votesPercentage voting "No" is 38.7%
No (keep creationism out of science class) 1,935 votes
Total votes (excluding "undecided" or "pass") 4,998
Among freepers alone, that figure is 35.9%
Among lurkers alone, that figure is 41.2%
[Gen 2:7] And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.Nope. I think he read it right.[Gen 2:21-22] And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
Yes. There is a large amount of proof for both Micro and Macro evolution. Do you want a link, want me to cite evidence, or would I just be wasting my time because you won't believe it regardless?
That's the proper thing to do.
[I haven't been following Santorum closely; these remarks are for any candidate who thinks non-science belongs in science class]
Either he believes the DI crap, and is not only scientifically uneducated, but thinks his whims trump actual science, or he knows better and is pandering. In neither case is such a person fit for office.
