Oh, yeah - in prison, for tax fraud.

Did you know he also got indicted for mail fraud and contempt of court this year, while still in prison? Yeah, that happened. The trial's happening in December.

Wrong. All dogs belong to one species, as has already been pointed out to you.

I can also prove that the Eiffel Tower didn't exist before 1889. That doesn't mean that Joe Blow from Pascagoula, MS built it in six days using tinkertoys.
See how that worl\Ks?

There is no such thing as "philosophical evidence", firstly. Secondly, any conclusion about the source of the origin of the Universe necessarily oversteps the evidence currently at hand, because we are unable to examine the point of expansion.

No, I mustn't believe in anything. However, I must follow the evidence. (That's a heuristic you'd do well to apply to yourself). The evidence for your deity is absent.
Feel free to correct me, in detail, either in this thread or another that you may start, called "The Evidence for the Christian God". I challenge you to do the latter ... if you dare.

As I've already pointed out, your dire need for education is obvious. You really don't need to buttress my point with these retarded claims of yours ... but hey, I'm nothing if not grateful. Keep talkin', kid.
When you want that education, let me know; I'll be happy to give you some pointers as to where to look.
No, I'm not holding my breath.
College it makes idiots smart. But it costs money so what he can do is, take a course in science, biology, and animal anatomy.

Kent Hovind?
I really do apologise, I don't normally do mockery as a rule, but...
Seriously?
Kent Hovind??
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Any education, at any level, is only what you make it. What you invest in mental energy, you will recover, in education, in direct proportion -- even if your teacher is teaching you bunk.
If nothing else, you will learn to recognize bunk.
If you remember no other post of mine, remember this one.

Evengelical Christianity would be out of business if it rendered onto Caesar what belonged to Caesar. The whole Christianity in America is biting caesar's hand that fed it.

Well, nothing's set in stone yet. He's still going to trial, innocent until proven guilty and all that.

Why don't you know what 'kind' a platypus is? Your god is all knowing isn't he? Didn't he create and name all the animals? Is the name lost somewhere? Or does it even exist at all? Was there ever a name for the 'kind' that a platypus is? It's almost as though the bronze age goat hearders who writ your holy book, only knew and named their local species. Why do you think your classification system is better than the one science uses, when you can't classify what a platypus is? When you couldn't classify hundreds of organisms?
