Re: Anglo-Israelitism debunked. Now for the End Times
Create life for me and I will deny creation.
Blowing smoke. He lost the debate about Israelites so he's blowing smoke to cover that up.
Not good, Candle(x). Your lack of intellect is showing, again.

Re: Anglo-Israelitism debunked. Now for the End Times
You know that I know evolution is a religion.
Then you don't know evolution or religion, as you have make clear before.
You big bad evolutionists don't like to be questioned about
your ignorance, because it shows how much you accept
by faith.
Then you don't know science. We love evidence that shows us wrong. That's how we learn. Unlike you priests, our knowledge base does not end with a 3000 year old fairy tale.
When science is questioned the scientist says, "Whoa, that was unexpected." When religion is questioned the priest calls for war.
You are evil.
Punctuated equilibrium is another theory because you all
clearly understand that the fossils do not support evolution.
Then you don't know evolution. PE is a well known, documented mechanism of population dynamics firmly explained within the Modern Synthesis.
The best support for creation are dinosaurs.
Then you don't know epistemology, evidence, knowledge and reality. You are out here in the intellectual arena unarmed.
You people want me to talk to you the way that you talk to
me and creationists.
Actually I don't want you to talk at all, ever.
Your commission to spread your delusions to others is evil. You spread poison in the human psyche and you need to be shut down.

Comforting
Yes. Truisms. Platitudes. Clichés.
Thank you for your insights.

Her Pinkness
Here's where epistemology plays a role—from the empirical evidence, we recognize our restrictions in validating supernatural claims.
Empirical evidence is all that is needed to recognize any claim of any phenomenon. Further, empirical evidence is the ONLY measure to validating ANY claims to reality. Proponents of supernatural happenings have no evidence of any such supernatural thing, person, place or happening. The evidence that would be expected from these myths having been true does not exist.
Further, there seems to be a growing sentiment in some science circles that the absence of expected features, evidence, where all of our experience, all of our history, all of our physics, tells us such should be there, is itself a major point in evidence against such claims.
Carl Sagan's observations about the absence of evidence not being evidence of absence cannot be maintained in this context. Besides, he was way wrong about the absence of evidence. Another topic for another time.
Since the empirical evidence of such a reality appears to be missing from our universe our visions and venations of The Great Pink Unicorn, invisible though She may be, must be abandoned.
There are no restrictions in validating supernatural claims. Proponents must present empirical evidence or leave the stage.
