It doesn't seem like it's all me. The forum has already created a cartoon version of who I'm supposed to be that I can't possibly live up to. So rather than continuously calling me dishonest for telling you my stance on things, I think it's easier if you guys just share what my beliefs and positions are supposed to be so I can remain on this forum.
I don't know what else to say if everything I post is classified as fake, lies, and trolling automatically. It's completely illogical.

.....or, you could continue with whatever further comment you might have had about your own chosen subject matter, in light of what you’ve since learned.
See how that was your call, John?
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!

Unfortunately, doing so has made LFC chase me around repeating the same questions. Respectfully explaining why they werent applicable, or contained premises I disagreed with, made her call me dishonest and a troll. And finally, asking for her criteria on trolling made her give an informal warming.
As amusing as it has been to witness, I would simply like her to be transparent regarding what she wants or doesn't want. It hasn't been very consistent or clear; and it doesn't seem to reflect the provided rules.
That's a reasonable request I think.

The version of you that would have been but a cartoon of most most other people is a portrait of yourself you painted with your hucksterish conduct, boy
Trying to distance yourself from that slippery image of yourself without repentance for the unforthright conduct that created the image only strengthens very image of irresponsibility. and dishonesty, boy

Thread Conclusion:
Even though the purpose of this thread was just for me to test the waters and learn the format of this site, I hope the exchange illustrated that there is more to the evolution of vision than eyes. Along the way we touched on topics such as the explanatory role of theories and how testable hypotheses are deduced from them. I submit this thread as my introduction.
A few members are under the impression that evolution helps bind together every field pertaining to biological organisms. As such, next week I'll talk about why it fails at properly explaining animal behavior and cognition. A few members are knowledgeable in psychology an neuroscience, so it should be a worthwhile discussion. I look forward to that thread.
In the meantime, I hope everybody has nice weekend.
