I find it amusing that you actually believe that your attempt at calling me childish would do anything except make me think less of you.
Folks - The only way Adrian can take such a position is to ignore the scientific literature as if texts and scholarly works are non-existant. E.g. famous books on evolution such as What Evolution Is use the term throughout. This book was written by the world renowned scholar [i]Ernst Mary which use the term evolutionist throughout it. Adrian is of the opinion that if he says its not used often enough then it will be truel.
The term is also used throughout the academic community contrary to what Adrian is trying to lead you to believe. E.g. http://www.news.ucdavis.edu/search/news_...so?id=4873
So no Adrian. I won't put up with you or people with your attitude. It's fortunate that you and those with your attitude aren't dominant on scientific forums or circles.
I was right the first time. This is not a good place to discuss anything. I'll leave permanently now.
