You are either loose with the truth or have a complete lack of self-awareness. You backed out of the debate once it became clear you would be debating REAL SCIENTISTS. Then you tried to salvage your image by agreeing to “discuss the data” with ME, the layman, the novice—the less threatening alternative. But as I said before, if you’re really serious about debating my scientists, then write an apology to them for backing out of the previous debate, and I will humbly request that they overlook your fickle and irresponsible behavior. Once I have your apology letter in hand, I will immediately begin the process of setting up and scheduling the new debate.
Twice now you have said your post got no response, yet the last post of mine on the subject of a debate was ‘present the data and i will engage it’.
My setting up of the ground rule that the debate was to be about Scientific interpretation not conspiracy theory was in no way backing out, unless it is your admission that conspiracy theory was all your “pedigreed” Scientist was going to engage in. There is no point in debating the Scientific evidence with someones whose a priori position is that those who conducted the study are engaged in fraud.
How can I debate or apologize to someone who is not now and has never been on FR, the site where this debate was supposed to take place?
Did you suppose I was supposed to inform Dr. Deuesburg what FR was and get him signed on? Did your work in “setting up” the debate consist only of forwarding your e-mail from Dr. Duesburg of him asking ‘what is this FR thing?’ and posting to me the snail mail address of some Creationist in Australia?
That was you “setting up a debate”? Sending me a Australian postal address and forwarding the excerpt of an e-mail from Dr. Duesburg asking ‘what is this FR thing?’. Wow. So much work you did!
Maybe I should apologize for not finding Dr. Duesburg’s e-mail or writing to the Creationist in Australia, answering their questions about FR, getting them signed on and debating them. Oh wait, but that would be ME setting up the debates.
You never set up a debate. I never backed out of one. Your lies to the contrary notwithstanding.
