A Global Catastrophic Event Wiped Out Ancient Forests
ICR News ^ | November 7, 2009 | Brian Thomas, M.S.

Fungi are single or multi-celled organisms that break down organic materials, such as rotting wood, in order to absorb their nutrients. Neither plant nor animal, they range from mushrooms to single-celled yeast.

Scientists were investigating organic chemicals trapped in an Italian sedimentary rock formation when they found evidence that an extinct fungus feasted on dead wood during a time when the world’s forests had been catastrophically eradicated.[1] What could have caused such a universal effect on forests, and why does organic material remain in rocks that are supposedly 251.4 million years old?...

==Which commandment it “Thou Shalt Slander Thy Neighbor”...I’m gonna have to look that one up...

I have no doubt about that.

Of course, you might have a problem connecting what I said to the Commandment in question (once you find it) as I have caught Natural Plagiarizer lifting other people’s work on multiple occasions, even changing or removing words to make his plagiarized argument appear stronger. Not only that, Natural Plagiarizer defends the practice on the grounds that the plagiarized material is supposedly “true.” But that doesn’t bother you...anything goes as long as he’s a fellow evo, right xcamel?

As a standard Temple of Dumwin loser, I’m sure you enjoy seeing another loser excoriated, simply because misery loves company.

Nothing noteworthy, as usual.

Like my grandfather used to say; "stupid is supposed to hurt."

He would know; after all, he is your grandfather, and I can understand his embarrassment.

Simple botanicals can cure and more importantly, prevent apendicitus. It even works for idiots like you.

The real problem is that GGG thinks that she has carte blanche to spin, lie, and misrepresent anything about me, Benedict XVI, the Catholic Church, Darwin, science, and anyone else who dares to challeng and correct her. Likening herself to the Grand Inquisitioners she feels that no slander, accusation, or falsehood is wrong as long as she believes it is done in the name of God. Unable to attack or refute the content of my posts she now seeks to attack me and to drive me away from these posts. She has it in her power to silence this. All she has to do is stop the falsehoods and name calling and I will remain silent. Only she can answer why she hasn't done this already.

Not surprising, we all have a problem connecting anything GGG posts to anything in Scripture.

Fake but factual?

Yep, if Natural Plagiarizer was a different kind of thief, he would defend his actions on the grounds that the merchandise he sells to the pawn shops is genuine (with occasional minor modifications to make it look more expensive then they really are).

N.P. is now a certified misogynist.

It thinks that the ultimate putdown is referring to someone as "she."

I don’t waste time on long messages from Natural Plagiarizer for obvious reasons. But if you say NP refered to me as a she, I’ll take your word for it!

Not at all. While I have no way of actually knowing Less's gender I thought the unreasonable and overly emotional responses might be because I incorrectly presumed Less was a he.
