How is AIDS being caused by a virus incompatible wiht the fact that the most common route of transmission is anal intercourse?
You are the one obsessed with proving that anal intercourse does not spread AIDS.
You didn’t get the memo? There was a whole thread started by FR management on the subject of whether you could request people not post to you. The policy is that if yo can’t take the heat, get off the thread.
So let me take this opportunity to ask why you are obsessed with proving that anal intercourse doesn’t spread AIDS?
js1138, this is your last warning. Do not under any circumstances reply or ping me. If you and your posse keep following me from thread to thread I will be hitting the abuse button. Thank you.
You are on this thread, and I have the right to respond to you on this thread.
Is there something divine about you that you can post that the earth (or solar system) is the center of the universe and you cannot be contradicted?
Do you have the right to post that the debate over Darwin is over, and you cannot be contradicted?
1. never to throw our feces at other people, not even in jest.
2. not to snatch food from other people, not even when they are much weaker than we.
3. not to play with our genitals in front of other people, not even when we are very bored.
4. not to mount the posterior of other people, not even when they have cute butts.
Hmm, thinking about a group of people who do/have done these things .....

I don’t follow people from thread to thread, and I couldn’t care less what you are posting on non-science threads.
I only post against stupid and harmful ideas, and your medical advice could kill people. Your understanding of science — just evidenced by reading what you have posted on this thread — is so odd, that I think calling attention to it is a good idea.
I think calling attention to the fact that you have proclaimed yourself smarter that all the physicists in the world, and all the medical doctors, and all the biologists, says something important about you.
Something that people should consider when they read your medical advice.
And just why is that? It's not the fault of the creationists/IDers.
Evolution has enjoyed a virtual monopoly in the public school system for decades now. You'd think with all that teaching, something would have sunk in by now. It clearly hasn't.
What's actually going on is that the US is lagging the rest of the world in science and math, and likely other areas. Private schools and homeschools usually teach both creation and evolution and those students consistently outperform public school students in virtually every kind of test, be it standardized, ACT, or SAT.
If the teaching and belief in creation were to blame for the poor educational performance, it should be easy to demonstrate. So go ahead. Show that teaching creation translates into an ignorance of science and is responsible for it.
Competing religions will never agree with each other.
You need to brush up on your science, history and understanding of Christianity.
First of all, no “true” scientist calls a scientific theory such as evolution, the “truth”. In science there are facts, and there are theories. Evolutionists have a hard time telling them apart.
And by allowing for evolution to be a theory I am being generous, as the broad generalization of common descent is not scientific. While many aspects of evolution are testable, the overall premise that evolution is THE one and only explanation for the variety of species is untestable (i.e. not falsifiable) and unscientific. (I do accept that a more limited scope of evolution is observable in real time and is an essential part of biology.)
Secondly, a brief reading of church history from readily available early church sources, such as Irenaeus, easily refutes the vitriolic attack of those who blame “The Church” for the unscientific and illogical and unbiblical views and practices of the pre-Reformation Catholic Church. While a dominant faction of heretics did persecute what they considered heretics who were scientists; the same persecuted even much more severely those who held the true faith and teaching of Christ, which you now indict as being guilty.
True Christianity is no more guilty of persecuting science than science is guilty of it.
True Christianity was the victim - right alongside science, reason and basic moral decency.
You can easily prove to yourself my view is not made up. The very scriptures that show the teachings of Christ contradicted the practices of this sad era of Christendom were safeguarded (and suppressed) by the very culprits of this evil.
To lay charge to Christians for this monstrous evil is far, far worse than telling a rape victim she (or he) is to blame.
By doing so, those who make these charges actually side with the evil beast that made rivers of blood flow from true martyrs of Christ. Do your homework before making slanderous accusations.
It is as informed of Christianity as someone claiming U.S. presidents are known to be bank robbers because he saw a Keanu Reeves movies in which Nixon robbed a bank.
Back to science. Darwin’s hypothesis was molded by a philosophic choice which rejected the reliable and authoritative revelation of scripture. All science requires philosophic choice to inform hypothesis selection. What makes one hypothesis more interesting and worth pursuing to a scientist than another? In a word, philosophy.
If Darwin had accepted the limitation proscribed in scripture that God made various “kinds” of animals to reproduce after their kind. He might have begun his quest seeking a more informed opinion of what a kind is. He could have still made as great or greater contribution to science without ignoring the record of creation.
Scoffers will quickly mock such claims, but I offer objective evidence:
Luis Pasteur was a contemporary of Darwin, and a greater scientist. He made more valuable contributions to biology and medicine. He began one of his quests with the scriptural premise I just cited.
I am not making this up. It is historical fact.
Please stop following me from thread to thread. There was a time when I thought it was stimulating and even fun to debate you. But now that I know what a closed minded bigot you are, I want nothing to do with you. Again, please STOP posting to me.
Could it be that your spell-checker had a say in that? Perhaps your dad said “ancestors.”
Why are you so obsessed with bringing that particular topic up, along with coffee enemas, on totally unrelated threads?
There's nothing in the topic of this thread that could warrant bringing it up here.
‘Comedy?’
I wondered about that too. It could have come from Scott Ott (Scrappleface.com). Or these words could have been uttered by Earl Pitts. Earl gives me my wake up bugle call in the morning via radio. This morning he cited studies that show that monkeys have a greater ability in math than college students. Not fair he says. They have twenty fingers for countin.
Are you disagreeing with “science?”
He follows me around from thread to thread bringing up anal sex wherever he goes. It’s like he can’t help himself.
“Boston must have a lot of SMUG alerts with all those hybrids driving around.”
I’ll try to remember that!
It is not so surprising that the two ideas go together, and are advocated by the same folks. From Wiki:
Modern geocentrism is a belief currently held by certain groups that the Earth is the center of the universe and does not move. The prime motivating factor for the modern belief, as opposed to the geocentrism of Ptolemy, is explicitly religious.Advocates generally argue that literal interpretations of certain Biblical passages demand that the Earth be properly described as being the center of the universe. Alternatively, in the case of Catholic geocentrists, scripture authoritatively interpreted by statements of Church Fathers and various Popes is used to justify their belief, even though this viewpoint is no longer endorsed by the Church itself. The geocentrist view is contradicted by modern cosmology, and by the Copernican principle and the theory of general relativity, which together imply that the universe has no center.
I can’t tell if you are serious or facetious. Either way, it’s another Darwinian just so story.
