Irony: That a creationist would believe that the existence of dinosaur fossils depends on human logic.
Statler Wrote:Nope, I agree that I was acting like an atheist which would make my arguments absurd and my behavior like that of an ass.
You said we agree. Sorry Charlie. We don't.

Non-responsive misdirection.
Quote:No there isn’t, you have not directly observed me.
Your posts are direct evidence that you, whatever you may be, exist. Yeah, I know, it sucks, but it is what it is.
Quote:Absolutely! The Cosmological and Design arguments for the existence of God are both good inductive arguments. I’ll give you one…
P1 Information is always observed to originate from a mind
P2 DNA holds semantic information.
C Therefore DNA originated from a creator mind.
Any argument for the existence of god is, by definition, based on personal revelation. As such, it is subjective, not objective, and based on deductive reasoning, not inductive reasoning. Secondly. your first premise is based on the unsupported assumption that all information originates from a mind. Since there is no emperic evidence to support this assumption, your entire argument collapses.

Oh, that's an easy one:

Truth is irrelevant when they are trying to con people.
No one knows that better than you.
Where have I lied about anything or even tried to con anyone? I am not asking for anything out of this in return, or for anyone to even agree with me. If you can’t hack the debate that’s one thing, but throwing out these false accusations crosses a greater line of impropriety.
Nearly everything you've posted is a bag of lies. Do you honestly think we need to provide you with a list?

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
