I've expressed my opinions and ideas and at times facts - or what I believed at the time to be facts - that I have read in this FR threads. I tend to believe more what some experts say in these threads than in the MSM. If I state something as fact and the experts in these evolution threads believe that it is not, then please do correct me. If there is a divergence of opinions as what constitutes a fact, then I tend to research the issue on my own, but may not conclusively say for sure whether what I have arrived at is indeed a fact or a supposition.

I'm not a scientist and hope this clear up any misunderstanding and me.

You expressed as fact at least a handful of times over the last few days the notion that Darwin disavowed his theory on his deathbed, and even suggested that you would post your source.

You've not done so.

Others have posted links to sources that demonstrate that the deathbed converstion never happened. From your continued harping on the deathbed conversion in the face of evidence to the contrary, what should a reasonable person conclude?

Wow. What an amazing collection of weaseling.
I've expressed my opinions and ideas and at times facts - or what I believed at the time to be facts - that I have read in this FR threads.

And when those "facts" were instantly debunked - by creationist sites no less - you didn't back down, you insisted that those lies were true.

If I state something as fact and the experts in these evolution threads believe that it is not, then please do correct me.

We have. You kept repeating the lies.

If there is a divergence of opinions as what constitutes a fact, then I tend to research the issue on my own, but may not conclusively say for sure whether what I have arrived at is indeed a fact or a supposition.

All of which is a fancy way of trying to distance yourself from the lies you continued to spread even after they were shown to be false, without actually admitting that they were false.

Cute.

We're still waiting for you to acknowledge that you took a quote out of context and attributed it to Darwin to back up a false statement. All you need to do is admit that you were wrong, that Darwin did not say that in 377 that "Darwin wrote that blacks were very closely related to their ape ancestors, but there was a group that was even closer- the Irish."

Are you ever going to admit that you were wrong, or will you persist with your course that you "believed (these lies) at the time to be facts"?
