I have read my comment that your sentence here is in response to, and I can't figure out what the heck it means. And my comment that you are replying to wasn't even responding to you or to anything you wrote. I'd only said one thing to you, and it was to point you to the Sclafly comment on homeschooling vis-a-vis the teaching of evolution.
This comment of yours is an example of why I avoid these threads. You evolutionists are just way too weird. You are like SCARED TO DEATH that someone is watching and you will not seem STRIDENT enough in your defense of evolution.
Like the PARTY'S BLOC COMMITTEE of the RED GUARD is watching and if you don't say something that is deemed communist enough, the party will question your loyalty to the cause of evolution.
If "So, how's your mechanical relay powered PC holding up?" is supposed to be some sort of insult to me, it comes across as the words of a self-concious child, maybe a bully, nervously trying to impress onlookers, to prove that you've somehow intimidated the STUPID one---the dumb CONSERVATIVE. The dumb CHRISTIAN. The dumb HOME SCHOOLER.
Well, I think the ones you have to worry about---the ones who would be testing your loyalty to the "CAUSE" are over at DU---so let your hair down. I won't BUST you. I won't bust your chops, or rat you out. Be yourself. Instead of flippant sarcasm, get real. Why not use real words and address the ISSUE or the FACTS?
Oh, never mind. That NEVER happens on these evolution threads. That's ANOTHER reason I don't come here. The evolutionists get too emotional. It's like something from The Manchurian Candidate or Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory. You MENTION it and their LITANY from the liberal CATECHISM about evolution KICKS in and you have to shake them out of it to remind them that, hey, in every OTHER way---other than this adult fairy tale from the 19th century, you are a normal American conservative! (or at least most of them seem to PRETEND to be when you run into them on some other threads....hummm...makes you wonder though...I will personally trust Phyllis Schlafly myself...)
building a bridge to the 19th century.
Then you start railing against 20th century academia...
Seriously, isn't it funny how conservatives generally are smart enough not to believe ANY of the bullsh*t that comes out of universities and academia and the intelligensia, knowing the AGENDA the people have, how the left has long ago co-opted what remains of any semblance of objective "truth" on campuses, where, for example, "history" includes things like, oh, the U.S. was the agressor against Japan in WWII...
But it was 20th century academia that came up with stuff like, oh I don't know, COMPUTERS. And modern medicine, and ... well, you know, just about all the stuff you have today. What's left to wish for - the 18th century???
But seriously, why do you insist on lumping the hard science of mainstream biology together with the soft social sciences like history or sociology where idiotic ideological theories really have been able to run rampant?
