[YHAOS]

“Yes, I “get it” that agreeing with me irks you beyond all human endurance . . . ”

You have more brass than a marching band (exceeded only by your presumptuousness).

I don’t know who you think you’re kidding, but it is not anyone on this thread with whom you are currently corresponding. Everyone is on to your game. You are seizing the ideas expressed by others, claiming them as your own, and then, in turn, presuming to instruct them on their own ideas as though their thoughts are your property. Much like the claim jumpers of yore, you propose to occupy someone’s property without authority and claim it for your own. Only this time it is intellectual property that you are expropriating. You are, in other words, a concept squatter - an intellectual claim jumper.

Typical of a two-bit politician, you also seem to think getting out in front of the parade deceives everyone into believing you are leading it.

“the term "vicious predatory animal" is a modern pejorative used in reference to our worst criminals -- murderers, rapists, etc.”

In fact you addressed the issue in a specific context (“No, (to the question if Man is a “vicious predatory animal”) far from it, except certain criminal mind-sets.”) Again, aside from your exception, how do “other similar words,” such as “effective hunter-gatherers” equate with “vicious predatory animal”?

“In fact, four years (February 2009) is the only reference you gave for those 27 alleged “insults” against Christians.”

Again. In post #200m this thread, you allege no new quotes since February of 2009, How Much Longer Dan They Sell Darwinism? FR, and you set the standard for “new quotes” to be four year’s (or less). Prove what you allege.

YHAOS: "You have more brass than a marching band (exceeded only by your presumptuousness)."

You're speaking of yourself, of course?
You have, it appears, only one major function here, and that is to mock & insult those who disagree, even when they agree!
You're on a mission, it seems -- a "search and destroy" -- and so there's no room in your Rules of Engagement for even attempting to understand -- you take no prisoners, do you?

And so now we can easily guess where your vast library of "mockings" listed in your post #134 comes from -- you mock, insult and provoke until you get a response-in-kind, and then you deposit another "victory" in your troll-library, right?
And you get paid for doing this, or is mocking just your idea of "fun"?

YHAOS: "I don’t know who you think you’re kidding, but it is not anyone on this thread with whom you are currently corresponding."

What, are you speaking of yourself again?
Your powers of "projection" are truly amazing, FRiend.

YHAOS: "You are seizing the ideas expressed by others, claiming them as your own, and then, in turn, presuming to instruct them on their own ideas as though their thoughts are your property."

I'm sorry, FRiend, if you thoroughly misunderstand what Free Republic is all about -- it's the internet equivalent of normal people sitting around in their family room, watching TV news and discussing topics they feel passionately about.
Every one of us knows some facts and everyone has opinions, which we attempt to express in the most coherent ways possible.

None of us claim that our opinions are "original", indeed most take a certain pride in loyally expressing views first developed by others, sometimes even thousands of years ago.

If you have a big problem with that, then just maybe Free Republic is not your real home?

YHAOS: "Typical of a two-bit politician, you also seem to think getting out in front of the parade deceives everyone into believing you are leading it."

And this refers to what, exactly?

YHAOS: "how do “other similar words,” such as “effective hunter-gatherers” equate with “vicious predatory animal”? "

see my posts #228 & 257.
If you wish to learn more, then you'll first need to answer my question (#257): "what, exactly, you mean by the phrase: 'vicious predatory animal.' "

YHAOS: "In post #200m this thread, you allege no new quotes since February of 2009, How Much Longer Dan They Sell Darwinism? FR, and you set the standard for “new quotes” to be four year’s (or less).
Prove what you allege."

As is typical of YHAOS, you again misrepresent the facts, which are:

1. YHAOS, post #81: "There’s nothing to prevent you from correcting [Dawkins'] fans on FR who assail his FR critics "

2. BJK, post #92: "In fact, there are no such "fans" posting of Free Republic, except in the projections of your own rather fertile imagination."

3. YHAOS, post #106: "These “fans” mock Christians with sneering references to “Demonic” possession and accusations of the adoption of the principal that a lie, told often enough, acquires a semblance of truth by virtue of sheer repetition.
   Your blatant denial of the patently obvious is so irrational as to be comedic. "

4. BJK, post #109: "I've seen nothing remotely resembling your description here.
   Indeed, mocking comes from the other side..."

5. YHAOS, post #134: "To “see,” one must look."
   Posts 27 alleged "mockings" of Christians by so-called fans of Dawkins.

6. BJK, post #137: "When I responded that I'd never seen such fans, you shape-shift to saying: "these 'fans' mock Christians..." and then produce a totally un-sourced listing of 27 alleged "mockings" of Christians."

7. YHAOS, post #174: "Strangely enough, when many of the same of what you now call the “allegedly” mocking of Christians, was introduced to you, by yours truly, in 2009 on FR (see February of 2009, How Much Longer Can They Sell Darwinism?), you had no objection, just excuses for the misbehavior of Atheists attempting to use Science as a shield."

8. BJK, post #200: "So let's see if I understand this -- to prove your claim that "Darwinists" mock Christians, you researched back in time FOUR YEARS to recover your own previous list of one-sided quotes, which by themselves prove nothing except a lively debate at that time?

   "And in the FOUR YEARS since, you can produce no new quotes?
   And you have no quotes from this thread?"

9. YHAOS, post #204: "In the above, you allege no new quotes, and you set the standard to be less than “FOUR YEARS.”
   Prove what you allege."

10. YHAOS, post #238: "In post #200, this thread, you allege no new quotes since February of 2009, How Much Longer Can They Sell Darwinism?, FR, and you set the standard for “new quotes” to be four year’s (or less).
    Prove what you allege. "

11. BJK, post #257: "Of course, if you, yourself, YHAOS were to provide source data for your own grudge-list, including the full contexts of those exchanges, then (and only then) I might take them a bit more seriously."

12. YHAOS, post #274: "Again. In post #200m this thread, you allege no new quotes since February of 2009, How Much Longer Dan They Sell Darwinism? FR, and you set the standard for “new quotes” to be four year’s (or less).
    Prove what you allege. "

Please note, FRiend, in item #8 above, the question marks on the two sentences which you describe as "allegations".
They are not "allegations", they are questions to you, which, like most of my questions, you utterly refuse to answer.

Because that's who YHAOS is, it's what you do, right?
You're here to mock & insult, not reasonably discuss, right?

On that subject of mockery, let me refer you to many scripture verses, especially Proverbs 9: 7-12.
