Vision and Evolution (A Critique of Dawkins)
RE: Vision and Evolution (A Critique of Dawkins)
I think you can do it. I’ve seen it before. How committed are you to trolling the board?

Not much else standing in your way, beyond another 960 empty pages to qualify.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Go on then, and get an advanced degree in evolutionary biology. When you’re done, come back and share with us idiots what you’ve learned. I can’t be sure, but I have a feeling that your course work wouldn’t be encompassed by ten teachers standing in a lecture hall, telling you, “there’s no way the human eye could have evolved, LOL! Here’s your diploma.”
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.

It is amusing. Next weekend, I will be on a road trip with three compadres. 

There will be me, the accredited engineer,
The actual tenured professor from a university.
The graduate from a business uni who makes more loot than any of us combined.
And a pure mathemetician.

In order, we will refer to each other as ...
Glorified electrician.
Cheesemonger.
Crap chef
Traitor to the ECB.

Point is that our crank du jour somehow thinks that qualifications are somehow holy. And they are not. The only explanation for that is that he/she is unable to get one. 
Or alternately, crank du jour reverses and says qualifications mean nothing. He/she can't make up it's mind

As evidence? Well the stream of moronic posts borne out of jealousy.

It is at least a little sad, but my sympathy has a limit.

I dig holes for a living, and yet a guy with half a cog sci degree is relying on me to present him with the hot topics in cognitive science.

Something is amiss.

I'd love to get such a degree. Would you able to make a donation so we can make that happen?

Sure, right after you pay for my breast augmentation. 😏

He's not majoring in cognitive science, he's majoring in psychology. Cognitive psychology is just a part of the major, not the whole of it.

Don't look down on yourself my friend. Degrees are as good as holes when it comes to questions at the boundaries of our knowledge.

No lol, and that actually confused me too when I first started out. So, cognitive psychology is psychology, but cognitive science is an interdisciplinary field that includes psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, linguistics, computer science, philosophy, etc.

Let's wait a little bit before I do, there's some cancer stuff surfacing with implants.
