Adios goodseedhomeschool:

So long you liberal freaks who hide on this freaky website. One day you will grow up and learn what real Republicans are.

You can go ahead and do what you do Jim Dear. I have learned more about my party (Republican) here and all the garbage that goes with it than I ever learned before I came here. Thanks to your site, I may consider changing my polital affiliation. P.S. cancel my donation pledge that I made yesterday. I cannot support this liberal site one moment longer. Thank you

One thing about that Duke study: it seems to point up unreliabilities in mtDNA as a research tool. Despite this, mtDNA is still used all over the place.

Gee, I guess science doesn't have all the answers. Might as well give up and go home. And scientists actually disagree with each other and get published. Someone must be asleep at conspiracy central.

Apparently, there was a time limit on this and time's up. Thus, the Duane Gish and Ken Ham YECcies win.

Now, I don't understand the logic of what I just typed, but that apparently is the logic.

It does much more than that, it shows serious problems with evolutionary assumptions of the relatedness of species. If evolution were correct, it should be quite simple to tell the descent of species through their DNA. The differences in DNA should gradually build up as the pruported tree of life grows in time with species at the higher levels being approximately equidistant in DNA differences to those lower down the tree. Since by now it is pretty well incontrovertible that phenotype is an expression of the genotype, the concordance of long assumed phenotypic relationships should be confirmed by the new genotypic evidence. That it does not is a strong refutation of evolutionary theory. It lends strong support to Intelligent Design theory which in contradiction to evolutionary theory claims that differences in genotype between species are due to the functional requirements of an organism not to descent.

It should be noted that it is not just mtDNA which disproves descent and confirms ID. The presence of numerous examples of what evolutionists hypocritically call 'convergent' evolution confirms ID and disproves evolution. The complete disproof of Haeckel's fraudulent proposition that development follows the steps by which evolution supposedly occurred is an even stronger confirmation of ID.

The entire purpose of posting personal slurs on goodseedhomeschool (WITHOUT a link or context) is to get us to say something similar to what she said. The goal being getting us banned.

The HUGE and BLARING difference between us is they work endlessly to stifle free speech, to get people banned, posts deleted, threads pulled, TO INCITE(as noted in post #202). They can't stand on their own merits. They have to use a fistfull of cheater bars to tread water.

I don't want a one of them banned. They do our side more good with each post, far more than they are aware of.

Being a conservative christian is great! One can only imagine what these yahoos have to face in the mirror each morning, and that's probably the driving force behind their hatred.

Viva la Victory!

Gosh! There's quite some suspending and banning going on on that thread.
