Casey took someone to task for attacking a straw man, so I point out that in that very response he does exactly the same thing:<BR/><BR/><I>Pot, meet Kettle.<BR/><BR/>Here’s a straw man of your own: “[Evolutionary biologists] believe [dogs] came from a rock.”<BR/><BR/>Show me <B>any</B> evolutionary biologist who makes such an absurd claim. You won’t find one.</I><BR/><BR/>We'll see if he allows it.Einzigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06406227217230727209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15453937.post-73808668047052589812007-06-05T22:43:00.000-07:002007-06-05T22:43:00.000-07:00I removed my first comment since I am not sure now...I removed my first comment since I am not sure now whether I read your comment correctly.Caseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345977881068297514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15453937.post-47557880373525159272007-06-05T22:17:00.000-07:002007-06-05T22:17:00.000-07:00Jim,First, please note that I started using Wordpr...Jim,<BR/><BR/>First, please note that I started using Wordpress one month ago. I am still new to the blogging thing. Up until then I was using some fairly outdated software that had no comments features or "trackbacks" or any of that good stuff. If I'm not following "blog protocol" I hope you'll let it slide for now. <BR/><BR/>If you did not claim to support AiG's efforts (at the beginning of your comment) then I must have misread. If so, I apologize. It's hard to say anything now that I deleted the comment, so I'll take your word for it. <BR/><BR/>In the future, perhaps I will allow off-topic comments, but for now I would like to keep things on-topic. You're welcome to post something on-topic, and no, I do not consider the lawsuit on-topic. As the matter is still in progress, I am hopeful that a positive solution will be found. <BR/><BR/>Disagreements are commonplace, even in christendom, so I don't think it has anything to do with the honesty of either party. They both feel that they are right, and hopefully eventually they will settle the disagreement peacefully.Caseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345977881068297514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15453937.post-92121538599246966322007-06-05T22:00:00.000-07:002007-06-05T22:00:00.000-07:00BTW, Casey, my comment specifically responded to y...BTW, Casey, my comment specifically responded to your argument that examples of poor thinking would still be appropriate to teach critical thinking and provided pointers to a wealth of specific critiques of the Creation Museum's content. To claim that as "off-topic" is absurd.Lippardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16826768452963498005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15453937.post-56771941745035605662007-06-05T21:55:00.000-07:002007-06-05T21:55:00.000-07:00Casey: I quoted the full text that I posted as a ...Casey: I quoted the full text that I posted as a comment on your blog in my post, above. I posted it under my own name and I did not claim that I supported any efforts of AiG--that would have been absurd, as my record as a critic of creationism is all over the Internet going back decades. You're demonstrating your own dishonesty by making that up.<BR/><BR/>A lawsuit against AiG has everything to do with that organization's honesty and reputation, especially if you read the content of that lawsuit and the supporting documentation.<BR/><BR/>Your comments here prove that you do, indeed, fear other ideas--to the point that you make up lies as excuses for suppressing them.Lippardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16826768452963498005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15453937.post-46828578970106878772007-06-05T21:42:00.000-07:002007-06-05T21:42:00.000-07:00If you want to post something on-topic, please fee...If you want to post something on-topic, please feel free to do so.
