I AM deliberately using the word “random” and I will continue to do so.

A Card game is RANDOM. You can cry at me until you are blue in the face that it is “probabilistic” and I will laugh and tell you AGAIN that the definition of random INCLUDES probabilistic.

RANDOM: Mathematics & Statistics. Of or relating to a type of circumstance or event that is described by a probability distribution.

And your intent in using a Gibson quote? You showed two things with that little tactic. One, you are dishonest enough to take a paper about evolutionary analysis and chop a quote of it out of context. Two; that you are not intelligent enough to discern that they never even tested mutation, they assumed it based upon the concept of common descent.

If you had any sense of shame you would be embarrassed by repeatedly showing your abject ignorance of the subject. But I guess being a Geocentricist means never admitting you are losing an argument.

Like Donkey facing Shrek, DG merely looks at him as he verbally blasts away.

Yes, I now you will continue to be deceptive. Evolution cannot stand without it.

"A Card game is RANDOM. You can cry at me until you are blue in the face that it is “probabilistic” and I will laugh and tell you AGAIN that the definition of random INCLUDES probabilistic."

A card game is not random. It is probabilistic. There is a difference.

"And your intent in using a Gibson quote? You showed two things with that little tactic. One, you are dishonest enough to take a paper about evolutionary analysis and chop a quote of it out of context. Two; that you are not intelligent enough to discern that they never even tested mutation, they assumed it based upon the concept of common descent."

Again, all I was doing was showing that mutations are not random. You agree that they are probabilistic, which is a different thing.

"If you had any sense of shame you would be embarrassed by repeatedly showing your abject ignorance of the subject. But I guess being a Geocentricist means never admitting you are losing an argument."

If you had any sense of shame, you would be embarrassed by repeatedly showing your totally disingenuous use of terms. But I guess being an evolutionist means never admitting you are losing an argument.
