I got something to say about that one too.

Imagine my surprise.

And it's the same problem I ahve with the first toon.

Do tell.

It's incomplete and arrogant.

And creationists are *never* that, certainly...

I disagree with the simple statement "h2o freezes at 32 degrees farhenheit" based on this: You aren't accounting for pressure.

Oh, right, the cartoonist should have put a whole chapter of chemistry into that panel, just to make it cover all bases instead of the standard conditions. And my car's speedometer should adjust for Relativity.

Yeah, that would have made the cartoon *much* funnier and more relevant. Uh huh.

Half-assed statements like that, that are then used to smear other people are crude, deceitful, and igotistical.

Missed the real point again, I see.

I am yet to meet any one who believes that the Bible says that bacteria can't adapt.

We covered this already. Did you not bother to read my reply, or did you utterly fail to understand any of it, so you decided to just repeat your original irrelevant complaint?

The astute reader will note that *nothing* in MacDorcha's post addresses *anything* I actually wrote in my very lengthy post to him, other than to nitpick about the cartoon.

I am also yet to find one who disagrees with the fundamental idea of gravity.

That's nice. Now feel free to go find someone who ever claimed or implied that they did, because *I* sure didn't.

I DO, however, find Darwinists who are willing to put forth only enough effort into making alternate thoughts look childish... but only to a child.

What in the heck are "alternate thoughts"? Attempt to remain coherent. Ask one of those insightful children for assistance if need be.

Now did you want to actually address anything I actually wrote? Or do you just want to ramble some more?

Those would be thoughts by George Westinghouse ... as opposed to thoughts by Thomas Edison, which were "direct thoughts."

Actually, the artist COULD have spent his time actually coming up with something funny to write, not something riddled with stupid half-assed statements.

It's the same reason I don't like Mike Luckovich. Yeah, he's brief, and says his statement. But it leaves the unlearned with the wrong impression.

Very lenghty post? It started with the toon!

I'm sure you've heard my speal about science being a philosophy. Take it from there.
