I see he's back and has brought his random CAPITALISATION and faux logic with him. Why is it that these religionists can't think in straight lines but believe that they can? He breaks all his own fallacies and can't seem to see it.
He does the pigeon chess thing of flying in, knocking the pieces over, shitting on the board and flying off again declaring victory to his fellow morons at his fairy tales site. It's incredibly tedious and childish. I wonder what he thinks he's achieving beyond person grandiosity?Je suis Charlie. Je suis Ahmed. Je suis Juif. Je suis Parisien. I am Mancunian. I am Brum. I am London. Olen Suomi Soy Barcelona. I am Ukraine. "Science adjusts it's views based on what's observed.

He seems more unhinged and deluded than usual. His posts are pretty conclusive that he doesn't understand the basics of scientific knowledge and progressive nature of scientific observations and how science is reported to the public. He's pissed off because because scientific discovery and knowledge is cumulative.

And I don't think he wants a discussion, just a perfect forum to spew his Gish Gallops and then run away.

RE: Message 1
It seems to me that he conflates several issues. Like Clint Eastwood, He is a Legend in his own mind. I never personally had a problem with Mike as a one-on-one conversationalist. Still, I DO note that he often hits and runs...which stifles any effective communication in our Forum. Perhaps Mike will see this offshoot topic (since his initial topic won't ever get promoted) and discuss something neutral with us like how the weather is or even global warming.

Reminds me of the type of conversations I imagine ID/creationists having.
Scientist: Why don't you trust scientists?Mike: They are always changing their minds. Scientist: What would make you trust scientists more? Mike: If they changed their mind about Intelligent Design.

Oh OK, I get it. So then Elitists must have elevated their minds BEYOND God! Got it.
Soon the very mysteries of the universe will be in their databases.

Soon the very mysteries of the universe will be in their databases. A reference to something not in any discussion, but, yes, a lot of that we already have. We really couldn't claim to be elite if we didn't.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

I sure would like to see mike the wiz post links to anyone here saying phylogeny recapitulated ontology. Gould wrote extensively about this failed hypothesis clear back in 1977 in his book, Ontogeny and Phylogeny.

nwr writes: Posts today by mike the wiz look like a clown performance. (I'm referring to Message 4 and the following post). Yep, that's what prompted my comment. He's completely daft, erroneously trying to pick a fight about a subject that has been properly explained almost 50 years ago by S. J. Gould.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!
