Evolution from LCF

[~enigma~]

Jarroyo over at LCF in a thread about evolution says All I've been showing is the kind of people evolutionists are. It is true and a fact that evolution is far, far, far away from being proven. It has many many sub-theories, many disagreements between scientists, many speculation and imagination. This is not characteristical of a fact.

Am I the only one that finds this to be funny since it almost exactly parallels the bs coming from the woo woos?

Characteristical?

Characteristical?

You beat me to it...

I was going to say that it sounds exactly like something George Bush would say, but then I remembered this is not the Politics forum...

I see what you did there.:)


On topic: denying evolution, can they become an even bigger parody of themselves?

There is very little difference between religious fundamentalism and conspiracy theorists... except one has a omnipotent omnipresent unfalsiable ruler of the universe.. and the other believes in a deity (har har).

This all goes back to my grand unifying theory of delusion that these issues all come from the same fundamental deep misfiring of some group of neurons. This macro-group of people are all "impaired" equally. When this malfunctioning brain segment gets filtered through their preconcieved notions, out comes their preferred delusions. People who are more athetistic (in their upbringing) who are "impaired" become conspiracy theorists. They use governments and NWO in place of God. Those who were raised more religiously tend to be fundamentalists.

Some of the parallels are downright scary...

1. Compare the NWO to God and the similarities are striking.

2. Compare the "Teach the controversy" mantra with the "Just asking questions" mantra. Both essentially say they aren't sure they are right, but they just want everyone to agree there are alot of unanswered questions (when there aren't). They go extremes to misreperesent the scientific inadequacies of the currently accepted theory.

3. Compare how they characterize the theory of evolution with NIST's theory of the collapse. They both love to claim it's "just" a theory, and attack it from all sorts of ridiculous psuedoscientific angles.

4. CT'ists love "god of the gaps" arguments and use it religiously (pun intended) when attacking NIST. Let us not forget who invented the "god of the gaps" arguments.

5. Reliance on ad-hominem. Dawkins is an aethist. NIST works for the government. Theories dismissed. People pushing evolution are trying to make a godless society and promote aethism. People pushing NIST's report are shills for the government or plants from the NWO trying to help maintain control.. etc, etc.

... and on and on...
