Why don't you treat us how you'd like to be treated?
1. You're trying to change the subject. You started off with your imperious *science* dissertation, and when
I threw down, you had NOTHING more to say about *science*. Why is that?
2. I'm trying to teach you people things about science and your own anger and hostility and vulgarity.
Has anything changed as a result of my posts? Not remotely. You don't want to learn.
I hold a mirror up to you, showing you your own ugliness and you foist your ugliness on me, blaming me for it.

If we got off on the wrong foot, let's set it right. How about from this point on, we treat each other as we would want to be treated?
I certainly agree that valid criticism does me a favor. It does you a favor, too, right?
Why don't we have a civil discussion about what constitutes legitimate knowledge. We may disagree, but through civil discussion, we might learn a little bit about the other's perspective.
The subject is: Why are the conclusions of science plausible?
Let me know if you're interested in having this discussion (civilly) and we'll have it.
