      [continued from previous message]              Have there ever been any honest competent and informed IDiotic support       for the ID creationist bait and switch scam? Some IDiotic creationists       were honest enough to quit when the bait and switch started to go down,       but how many kept supporting ID as bait? How dishonest do you have to       be to remain an IDiot after the bait and switch has been going down for       over 2 decades. By the time the bait and switch had been going down for       over 2 years it was evident that the only IDiots left in existence were       the ignorant, incompetent and or dishonest. You were posting to ARN       when the bait and switch went down, so you know what kind of IDiots kept       supporting the scam after the bait and switch became the only way       forward to support the creationist Wedge goals. Really, I did not start       calling the scam artists ID perps until late 2004 just before Dover hit       the fan. It was obvious that the ID perps were never going to stop       running the bait and switch on creationist rubes like yourself. The       bait and switch had gone down a couple dozen times by then. How       competent and honest did Kalk, Bill and yourself turn out to be once the       ID perps virtually committed suicide by putting out the Top Six in the       order in which they must have occurred in this universe? Once Kalk and       Bill realized that they had never wanted any ID science to ever have       been produced they quit the ID scam. Kalk claimed that he was going to       concentrate on other aspects of his religious beliefs and Bill just       claimed that he had never supported the ID scam. Bill is the IDiot that       claimed that he knew some real ID scientists that had real ID science,       but he never put any of them forward for evaluation.              That is how lame creationism became when they changed the name of what       they were doing from creationism to intelligent design in Of Pandas and       People after the Supreme court determined that scientific creationism       wasn't any science worth teaching in the public schools. Of Pandas and       People was written to support creationism without the Bible verses and       Biblical mythology so that it could be used to teach creationism in the       public schools. The Arkansas court case had determined that there were       no suitable materials that could be used to teach scientific creationism       in the public schools because all the creationist literature was laced       with Bible verses and Biblical mythology. Of Pandas and people was       supposed to rectify that situation, but it turned out that what the       scientific creationists had to teach wasn't any science worth teaching.              >       > This approach is something like a creationist dismissing evolution using       > copy-paste attacks on Piltdown Man, Haeckel’s Embryos etc.              Lying about reality isn't going to change reality.              >       > Ron, if you imagine yourself to be protector and champion against the       > evil of ID, I recommend a different approach.              I am not a protector or champion of anything. Nothing that I agree with       needs protecting. The ID scam was never a challenge to real science       once it became a religious scam that they were running on their own       creationist support base. The ID perps became the major influence in       keeping creationism out of the public schools. The rubes had never       listened to the science side, but when the guys who sold you the scam       tell you not to teach it most of the rubes have enough of a clue to       fold. Nearly all of the creationist rubes dropped the effort instead of       bend over for the obfuscation and denial switch scam. The bait and       switch is still going down. Luskin is coauthor of the current teach ID       scam propaganda that claims that the Dover decision was wrong, and that       even though ID was found to be illegal to teach in the public schools of       Dover that it is still legal to teach the junk in the public schools of       other states. Luskin is the current ID perp designated to run the bait       and switch on any hapless rube that believes what he wrote.              >       > On a good day you demonstrate expertise and ability to meaningfully       > engage and contribute. Stop blowing smoke and give us more good days.              Lying about reality isn't going to change reality. I have never blown       smoke. That is all that the ID perps ever had, and the bait and switch       scam that they are running is evidence of that. Really, no one else but       the ID perps are claiming that ID can be taught in the public schools at       this time. I know of no other organizations that claim that ID can be       taught in the public schools. Luskin is going to run the bait and       switch scam on the Arizona legislator that currently wants to teach ID       in the Arizona public schools, and you will keep lying to yourself about       reality.              Ron Okimoto              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
