interviewing a creationist (painful)
April 28, 2012 at 4:08 pm
i realize that maybe everyone here has watched this video at one point or another, but another thread i've read today just made me think of it.
this video gives me the chills. the lady's facial expression and condescending tone just drives me crazy, not to mention her total ignorance. not knowing facts is not as bad as imitating looking for them.

I gave up watching when she said that the scientific community isn't open minded.

and there are 7 parts to this video, all about 10 minutes long. how in the hell did he manage to stay there and continue to speak to her, when after 2 minutes, i'm loading my revolver and dipping the barrel in honey, so i enjoy the taste of it.

The minute I saw the thread title I knew it would be Wendy Wright.
Thanks, but I don't need that much stupid in my head.

I watched that video sometime ago and though the creationist was terrible in her answers, Dawkins fared no better. He kept pointing her to go to a museum, as if they are an authority on origins, to see the supposed evidence for evolution.
All museums have are nice little displays but nothing that shows the process in action, the transformation in action, or that the process of evolution actually exists.
Museums are filled with conjecture, assumptions, wishful thinking not fact nor evidence.
Please capture this so called process and put it in a test tube like you want to do with God.
Remember science and museums are not an authority and do not have a say in what took place at creation. They were not there and are not an eye-witness. In fact their supposed observations are thousands of years after the fact and mean nothing.

I want you to remember this next time you need to see a doctor.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
