My Son Needs Some Help. Anti-Evolution Speaker Coming to His School

[renie408]

60. Well, you get my vote for ego driven behavior...

Not because you stated that you are a scientist, but because you find the need to prop yourself up with extrapolations about the intellect of others. Also, you applied your own definition to my post with the 'ammunition' comment. Nowhere in this thread did I mention wanting ammunition for anything. When someone made a comment about scientists in response to your post that was not directed AT you, you felt the need to tell everyone that you are a published toxicologist. You denigrated my understanding of theory of evolution without any evidence to support your comments and stated that YOU didn't feel the NEED to come to the DU to get help with YOUR arguments. And you wonder why I think you are an egotistical twit?

And as a supposedly published scientist are you really saying that evolution is MY 'point of view'? Seriously? Mr. Nutting is being paid by SOMEBODY to come and give a talk in which he is making an attempt to persuade people that evolution is wrong and that creation is right. After the discussion, he is offering to answer questions. You seem to feel that it would be 'rude' (???) to ask him any questions that might cast doubt on his theories. That we should all just try to 'understand' the Young Earthers and the Creationists because, gosh, there are so darn many of them. And then you make an attempt to retaliate to my responses to you with straw men.

So, hey, keep jumping back in on this as much as you feel you need to in order to prop up that ego, but the more you do, the more you make my arguments for me. Thanks for the help!!
