big deal! Such hyperbole on your part.

In neither video did Dr. Tyson state an objection to Dr. Dawkins, a preeminent evolutionary biologists, who just happened to be at the same meeting and one could take inference in what Dr. Tyson said in the of his remarks, without stating Dr. Dawkins by name, referred to him and others in the audience.

I also don't know what you are talking about concerning my comment that you objected to. Please elaborate so that I may defend myself. Your vagueness is annoying but typical.

By the way your lack of respect for both Dr. Tyson and Dr. Dawkins is glaring.

You brought him up and even speculated as to why he didn't want to post it himself. cbayer May 2012 #21

For one thing... rexcat May 2012 #29

Seriously, meta is the place for the discussion of the blocking decision. Goblinmonger May 2012 #31

BTW, the only PM I have ever sent you was the following (in response to one you sent me) cbayer May 2012 #33

My point was your decision was chickenshit but not you personally... rexcat May 2012 #37

No, I go into protected forums to defend myself or other members of this group. cbayer May 2012 #39

He is Agnostic for the same reason I am. Gore1FL May 2012 #22

Can you state that in a more grammatically correct form? edcantor May 2012 #23

You want to attack grammar? Really? Gore1FL May 2012 #38

I don't think you are using that word correctly. cleanhippie May 2012 #24

I am using it according to Webster. n/t Gore1FL May 2012 #35

Webster has Gnosticism defined as evidence? cleanhippie May 2012 #46

I've had this discussion several times already on this subthread. Gore1FL May 2012 #47

I did, and nowhere do you recant what you just told me, that Websters includes evidence as part cleanhippie May 2012 #48

My basic point was that ultimately, I don't know the answer. (Which is also Tyson's.) Gore1FL May 2012 #49

But are you an agnostic atheist or an agnostic theist? Goblinmonger May 2012 #25

Of course it is not linear. Gore1FL May 2012 #34

So you currently don't believe in a god? Goblinmonger May 2012 #36

So you are saying it is not linear, but it is 2 dimensional? Gore1FL May 2012 #40

I've been pretty clear about what I've been saying Goblinmonger May 2012 #41

Then I am on the atheist side of things. n/t Gore1FL May 2012 #42

I fully understand people not wanting the atheist label Goblinmonger May 2012 #43

You are misusing the term "Agnostic" Act_of_Reparation May 2012 #26

No I'm not Gore1FL May 2012 #32

Yes, you are. Act_of_Reparation May 2012 #44

I lean towards there not being a God.., Gore1FL May 2012 #45

I have no desire to label you whatsoever... Act_of_Reparation May 2012 #50

He explains it really well, which is not surprising. cbayer May 2012 #27

That's just not true. Goblinmonger May 2012 #28

That was splendid! JNelson6563 May 2012 #51
