Yes let's check reality

1. an animal, as distinct from a human being.
2. an animal or a person.

Looks like you pretty clearly said "Fungi are plants."
Make that two apologies.

No, Kidding I said it. It's still what I think too, regardless of how biology classifies them.  They are similiar enough to be the same classification. And I owe you nothing. You owe me like ten apologies for being a lying, condescending ass as I win every single argument with you. Just face it- there is a God. It's a good thing, not a bad thing.

Then perhaps they should not be classified as animals. Only conscious life should be classified as animals.

And perhaps you should learn why organisms are classified the way they are rather than expecting the entire field of biology to conform to your ignorant bleating.

Quote:And why don't you answer my question about DNA since it is the topic of this thread.

Because you didn't ask me. I joined this thread round about the point you were busy howling about Orch-OR in a completely OT paroxysm.

Indeed, Prof. James M. Tour was a signator to Discovery Institute's "A Scientific Dissent From Darwinism," but has he ever had a scientific paper critical of modern evolutionary theory published in NATURE or any other legitimate peer-reviewed scientific journal?

He is, by the way, a synthetic organic chemist whose scientific field is in nanotechnology, not modern evolutionary theory.


Professor James M. Tour is one of the ten most cited chemists in the world. He is famous for his work on nanocars, nanoelectronics, 
graphene nanostructures, carbon nanovectors in medicine, and green carbon research for enhanced oil recovery and environmentally friendly oil and gas extraction. He is currently a Professor of Chemistry, Professor of Computer Science, and Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Rice University. He has authored or co-authored 489 scientific publications and his name is on 36 patents. 


It is his understanding of molecular chemistry. He is saying no one understands how macroevolution could possibly ever happen. NO ONE

"Let me tell you what goes on in the back rooms of science – with National Academy members, with Nobel Prize winners. I have sat with them, and when I get them alone, not in public – because it’s a scary thing, if you say what I just said – I say, “Do you understand all of this, where all of this came from, and how this happens?” Every time that I have sat with people who are synthetic chemists, who understand this, they go “Uh-uh. Nope.” These people are just so far off, on how to believe this stuff came together. I’ve sat with National Academy members, with Nobel Prize winners. Sometimes I will say, “Do you understand this?”And if they’re afraid to say “No,” they say nothing. They just stare at me, because they can’t sincerely do it."


I was once brought in by the Dean of the Department, many years ago, and he was a chemist. He was kind of concerned about some things. I said, “Let me ask you something. You’re a chemist. Do you understand this? How do you get DNA without a cell membrane? And how do you get a cell membrane without a DNA? And how does all this come together from this piece of jelly?” We have no idea, we have no idea. I said, “Isn’t it interesting that you, the Dean of science, and I, the chemistry professor, can talk about this quietly in your office, but we can’t go out there and talk about this?”

And this is from his website:


I have been labeled as an Intelligent Design (sometimes called “ID”) proponent. I am not. I do not know how to use science to prove intelligent design although some others might. I am sympathetic to the arguments and I find some of them intriguing, but I prefer to be free of that intelligent design label. As a modern-day scientist, I do not know how to prove intelligent design using my most sophisticated analytical tools— the canonical tools are, by their own admission, inadequate to answer the intelligent design question. I cannot lay the issue at the doorstep of a benevolent creator or even an impersonal intelligent designer. All I can presently say is that my chemical tools do not permit my assessment of intelligent design.

I have written a long article on the origin of life: http://inference-review.com/article/animadversions-of-a-synthetic-chemist. It is clear, chemists and biologists are clueless. I wrote, “Those who think scientists understand the issues of prebiotic chemistry are wholly misinformed. Nobody understands them. Maybe one day we will. But that day is far from today. It would be far more helpful (and hopeful) to expose students to the massive gaps in our understanding. They may find a firmer—and possibly a radically different—scientific theory. The basis upon which we as scientists are relying is so shaky that we must openly state the situation for what it is: it is a mystery.” Note that since the time of my submission of that commentary cited above, articles continue to be published on prebiotic chemistry, so I will link to my short critiques of a few of those newer articles so that the interested reader can get an ongoing synthetic chemist’s assessment of the proposals: .

No of this biographical data refutes his point . He isn't an expert in the field so his opinion means nothing .

How biology classifies them is only relevance and no they are more then different enough to be in a separate category which is why they are one in the first place . One far closer to animals .So again you fail as any personnel definition you present is bullocks

Her obsession with categorizing life by consciousness is fucking hilarious . Sorry it's not defined that way. Simply shoving all the non conscience life aside is simply foolish .

Nope. Explain, in your own words, from your own understanding of it, how the complexity of DNA could ever possibly come about without an intelligent driving force.

No, I sure didn't. You are nothing but a total fraud and a liar. I said they are not alive in the same sense that we and the animals are.

Also I am sure my scientific literacy is just as good or better than yours is.

Liar. You are lying and mis-stating what I said about plants being alive, and fungi are similiar enough to plants to be classified as plants, no matter what some idiot like you thinks and no matter what separate made up kingdom they may belong to according to biology. 
And the whole point was that they are not conscious life! I was not even having the discussion with you. You are just pissed off because I have proven you wrong about every single thing we have discussed.

They should be sorry they didn't categorize them that way. It makes them look like a bunch of incompetent bumbling morons who don't know what they're doing.
Those of us who do not worship biologists, and just see them as regular average people, just want honest, smart science from them. They keep failing at it though. My prediction is the Theory of Evolution is going to be changed so much with all the new discoveries, it will no longer even be the same theory.
