Please quote an example of where I called anyone a "social misfit", "tone deaf" or any other insulting, confrontational or condescending terms.
Then explain why, precisely, you consider the quoted remark "socially tone deaf".
TN4Liberty: "the feather from scale conversion is just one of many theories, all speculative, and all with holes in them.
None are apparently universally accepted."
So I'll ask you the same question I asked ARepublicanForAllReasons: did you never have a good science teacher?
Did no one ever explain to you the differences between scientific facts, hypotheses and theories, or what a "scientific law" has to have?
Do you not immediately recognize an unconfirmed hypothesis versus a confirmed theory?
There are no confirmed theories that I know of regarding the early development of feathers.
TN4Liberty: "Ah, you did provide links. Wikipedia. Ill get right on that."
Why use more complex stuff with folks who don't know even the basics?
I didn’t say you called anyone socially tone deaf or deliberately insulting. I said you must be to not understand how your comments would be offensive.
Did you never have an English teacher?
I didn’t ask you to comment on my first post, yet you felt the need to get involved and start insulting me. Please stop replying to me now. I now have three data points out of three that confirm my suspicion about the type of person you are, and it is not the type of person I care to engage in discussion. Seeing your comments to others on the thread, it’s clear that the problem is you, not me. I’ll consider my assessment a “confirmed theory.”
This is like asking someone to explain why, precisely, a joke is funny.
