[[Take it up with Behe, CottShop. He testified in court under oath that astrology is as much science as intelligent design. From the Dover transcripts:]]
I don’t care what he said about astrology- The fact is that ID was on trial here and the FACTS were presented about ID which were completely ignoreed by hte judge- You’ve introduced a false and misleading respresentation of hte trial by insinuating that the trial consited of nothign more strong than a completely irrelevent comment made by Behe that didn’t affect the trials issues one iota-
Oh and Doc- pwned- Cripes- you have VERY low standards I see- thnaks for tippiong your hand and revealing your intellectual dishonesty right off the bat- go play in DC’s palypen- you’ve brought NOTHING worthwhile to htis thread-0
Let’s go back and replay this conversation.
You said ID was science.
I said, yes, if you also think like Behe that astrology was science.
You said that was a blatant lie.
I produced a quotation of Behe’s exact words saying that astrology was science.
You say you don’t care that Behe did say that and called my statement above “false and misleading”, in spite of it being an exact quotation.
I have a lot of surreal conversations at FR.
The facts weren't ignored. The judge just wasn't as easily swayed by the evidence as you are. Creationism, by any other name, has its basis in religious faith and as such has no place in a science class.
See, that’s the problem with people today. You instantly assume that everyone on the thread who disagrees with you is evil or malignant in some manner. They can’t be merely “mistaken” or perhaps uninformed of the latest curl in the difference between ID and creationism according to the Discovery Institute.
Don’t feel too bad, you aren’t alone. This attitude permeates the nation and all of its religions and ideologies. You’ll find it anywhere you find a disagreement over anything more fundamental than “what’s for dinner?”
I’ll tell you what, stepping back, cooling off, and considering how people you disagree with came to disagree in the first place without assuming dark and devious motives would go a long way towards at least making the country, and the web in particular, a nicer place to live.
