Re: Forewarned.
Kleinman:
Are you going to tell them how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail? You could tell them how you are related to the bacteria they used in their experiments.
ringo:
I don't need to tell them what they already know.

You read it in one of the imaginary links that you never post.
ringo:
What's the term for diagnosing somebody from a distance with no relevant input?
Kleinman:
It's called "folie à ringo".
ringo:
So you have "folie à ringo"? I suspect you didn't understand the question.


You are the one that imagines you are related to bacteria. And given enough time bacteria will turn into cowboys. Perhaps they will redo "The Quick and the Dead" and call it "The Gunfight at the OK Petri Dish"?
ringo:
The issue here is whether or not you can recognize your own grandparents.
Kleinman:
I'm sure they don't look like your relatives.
ringo:
I think they probably do. Have you lost the plot completely?


According to you, your relatives get around using flagella. This is called "folie à ringo".

It's a fact. The evidence is DNA.

For the umptieth time, common ancestors turn into bacteria and humans. It is not a direct line from bacteria to humans. Learn the difference between grandparents and cousins.

You can't even make up your mind whether it's a ringo or a pluiseurs. You were right the first time. In fact, it isn't even a pluiseurs, it's a tous.

Then you would post those links. But you don't because they don't exist. The Kishony and Lenski experiments do exist but the delusional ignore them because they reveal their delusion and explain how descent with modification and biological evolution works.
Kleinman:
You are the one that imagines you are related to bacteria.
ringo:
It's a fact. The evidence is DNA.

All you know is what mathematically incompetent and ignorant of the laws of physics biologists have indoctrinated you with. You have been brainwashed.

ringo:

You can't even explain how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail. But in your brainwashed mind, you think you know what the line is between bacteria and humans. You are living in a fantasy movie script.

Any way you want to number it ringo, you are delusional. That's why you don't want to try and understand the Kishony and Lenski experiments and are unable to explain how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail. You would rather live in your delusions.

Nope. Everything I have said about YOUR ignorance of mathematics comes from me alone, nothing from anything resembling indoctrination.

ringo:

I said they were mathematically incompetent and didn't understand the laws of physics. That doesn't mean they can't be good lab techs. They just don't understand how the laws of physics apply to their experiments. If they did, they would know how to do the mathematics of their own experiments.
Kleinman:

ringo:

So ringo is now an expert in mathematics as well as being a cowboy. You can't even do a simple probability calculation but in your delusions, you think you understand mathematics. I've had my math checked by experts in the field. This math is easy, dwise1 almost did it correctly. You are stuck in a fictional movie plot.
Kleinman:

ringo:

I realize this is hard for you to understand in your delusional state, but being good lab techs doesn't guarantee that they understand the physics and mathematics of the experiments that they are performing. Biologists do many things right, but explaining the physics and mathematics of biological evolution is not one of those things.

Well, I did try to explain to you in mathematical terms the difference between grandparents and cousins. But it seems to be beyond you, so I guess I can't claim to be an expert in abnormal psychology.

You don't have to understand the laws of physics to perform an experiment. If they did understand the laws of physics, then perhaps they could explain the behavior of their experiments mathematically, but they don't.

Your explanations are silly as well as being delusional. Though the mathematics that describes biological evolution is not that difficult, it is way over your head and the same applies to biologists. Otherwise, they would have described how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail.

Not everyone, buckaroo. Anyone who thinks they are related to bacteria, no matter what path they imagine belongs to that group. That's why you won't give us an explanation of how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail.
Kleinman:

ringo:

You still haven't told us why it takes a billion replications for each adaptive mutation in the Kishony and Lenski experiments. What is the physical reason for that?
Kleinman:
Your explanations are silly as well as being delusional.
ringo:
According to nobody but you. It seems more likely that YOU are silly and delusional.

It may seem like that to you but people suffering from drug-resistant infections and failed cancer treatments is not a delusion and it certainly isn't silly. Biologists have failed to explain how this happens. And you have bought into their mythology.
Kleinman:

Take a course in introductory probability theory and you would have a chance to understand the explanation I've given. dwise1 and Taq understand it. Biologists need to learn this then they could correctly explain how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail.

It is worse than that, Dredge. The leader of that takeover is using these stooges to deny God. They don't understand that denying their Creator has immediate and long-term effects on their souls. They have no idea of mercy and where that mercy comes from.

We should start a protest group like PETA, but call it PETRR, people for the ethical treatment of ringo's relatives. We can start by marching on toothbrush manufacturers. Think of how many of ringo's relatives you spit down the drain every day. Such cruelty.

Well said. I've long contended that the raison d'etre of the theory of evolution is to deceive the masses into believing that life on earth is the result of a natural process that's well understood by science, thereby doing away with the need of a divine Creator ... and that the source of this deception is the Evil One.
