Now, now, Hurum said Ida was a link to all humans. But since you suggested he was an “idiot” if quoted accurately, giving no reason to think he wasn't, why is his reputation now “irrelevant”?

“This the first link to all humans,” Hurum, of the Natural History Museum in Oslo, Norway, said in a statement. Ida represents “the closest thing we can get to a direct ancestor.”

But I expect you'll keep trying to conjure up a lie in the article no matter how carefully its explained to you.

Timeline? Not needed but if you could try to stay on the point of the article that would help, thank you.

—What mistake? No one in the science community was saying it was an ape-man intermediate. I did see a news story or two saying that, but that was because of an idiot in the media who didn’t understand what scientists were saying - no scientists were actually saying such a thing. As for whether it’s a lemur/monkey (pro-simian/simian) link, that’s still being debated.

—Swept under the rug how? Because it’s not in the news as much anymore? I predict that Patrick Swayze’s death will be swept under the rug - several months from now you’ll barely hear a thing about it.

LOLROTF!

Riiiiight...now this is curious because I don' t recall the part about scientists tripping all over themselves to correct said "media idiot"...

do you metmom? GGG?

Sheesh, this fire drill just gets better and better doesn't it?

LOL!!!!!

Why don't you take off your Darwin colored glasses and actually read what ICR News actually said. From the very same article that prompted your kneejerk evo-reaction:

“Certain traits of Ida’s lower jaw were hyped as being critical indicators of her transitional status between adapiforms (an extinct group of lemur look-alikes) and anthropoid apes, which according to evolutionary definitions include humans.”

Does that sound like ICR is claiming that Ida is a transitional between apes and humans? No, they are pointing out that the Temple of Darwin fanatics were claiming that Ida completed the primate line leading to the supposed ape-human transition by connecting that line to all mammals. Duh. I think all that incense that you have been burning for Darwin has affected your brain. Time step out of your evo-temple and breath in the fresh air of God's creation!

Creationists maybe don’t have what scientists consider a *scientific* reason for their conclusions, but they were proved right, again.

And this begs the question...how do so many liberals come off labeling the dissentfromdarwin.org scientists as anything but valid scientists in the first place?

Because they most certainly DO have scientific reasons for such conclusions!

If anything, the scientists that liberals hold up in such high esteem are looking more and more like the very people they project about...caught up in an ideology while blatantly ignoring the science!

What is ridiculous is your misreading, deliberate or otherwise, of a rather simple paragraph.

If they can't get your mind off of the subject then they have to twist it or change it or misrepresent it in some way.

That's how cults work.

Cults are incapable of being wrong....making mistakes...it's all about never ever being wrong...just like the cult of personality that is 0bama.

You missed the point. Using your analogy:

Scientist: “This door handle proves an evolutionary link between out-houses and indoor plumbing.”
Creationist: “It proves no such thing. You haven’t observed any such transition. You mistake similar parts for causality. I predict you’ll eventually understand that.”
Scientist: “Will you excuse me. I need to use the restroom.”


Creationist:

Well sure, but just this once can you keep such personal matters as toileting to yourself, and not shout down everyone and anyone around you to be so....intimately involved on your trip to the outhouse...just this once? ;)

Nice tagline btw!

It is an unrelenting campaign because the Temple of Darwin devotees on FR can’t come to terms with the fact that Creationists and IDers are permitted to post their articles and papers on FR. The evos want to do to FR what their ACLU co-religionists have done to our public schools. It’s time for Christians and conservatives generally to wake up and realize that the Temple of Darwin is an intolerant, anti-science religion that seeks kill all dissent, and to eradicate Christianity from the public square...and I think it is high time we expose it as such.


GGG’s exactly right Timmy...and you’ll note the sheer desperation with the liberal demanding GGG take his argument over to some liberal website in post #...

because Ira simply can’t tolerate dissent and GGG is correct...it gets under their skin that their cult is exposed on FR and can not be shouted down or sued into silence as has been virtually everywhere and anywhere else!

You’ll see a ton of bizarre strawmen, projections and so on...it’s quite something to behold!

“liberal” is the exact word you used Timmy that most accurately describes evolutionist closet liberals on FR, (or anywhere), and they stick out like sore thumbs, as you can plainly see!

And if you look closely at liberals like algore and Christty Fit Matthews, they say things about global warming and evolution respectively: “the debate is over” and “settled science”.

You’re either comatose or a victim of the cult yourself, if you’re unable to see this!

You got nailed. Again.

And the best you can do is project about it...and sprinkle in a few strawmen...

pathetic dreamer...absolutely pathetic.

Creation and Scientist are mutually exclusive conditions, generally.

Swing and another miss.

You only get 3 strikes...not 3000...it's past time to go sit down!

Poor Ida got some of her make-up washed off and now everyone can see she's, she.... well, she has great personality!

And of course, looking back no scientist worth the name ever really thought she was ‘way cool’, no,no,no,no.

And if they did, it's impolite for the creationists and ID’ers to remind them. and inaccurate and a LIE!, says the Darwinists.

Bagged any heretics yet today?

Got anything in your bag today other than victimhood or projections or both?

Thanks, tpanther! Yep, the debate is over all right. That’s why around half the country believes in biblical creation, and the evos haven’t been able to dent that number for several decades. Even with their jackbooted ACLU goons, and their Temple of Darwin judges, not to mention taking over our public schools on behalf of Darwin’s evo-religious creation myth, they haven’t been able to move that number after all this time. That’s because God’s creation resists evolutionary explanations, and the average person instinctively knows it. It must really bum the evos how easy it is for creationists to pick apart the carefully crafted evo-explanations!

This is beginning to remind me alot of what’s going on elsewhere in liberal la-la-land...

typical liberal behavior seen on this thread can be recognized in the latest ACORN exposure on stark display for all to see.

They fire the women, then turn right around with a straight face and say the film was doctored and so forth...

then...today after liberals have had a chance to think beyond their panic...the latest is it was all a studio production!

That’s right...the guy had millions from FOX to rent a warehouse and put an ACORN sign on the building, hire some girls to pose as ACRON employees and waaaaaa-laaaahhh!

But this begs the question, only no one it seems is mentioning...exactly HOW on earth then, did the women get fired from ACORN if they were FOX plants?

All that’s missing now is how stupid FOX is!

Next up we see the country coming unglued by the socialist/fascist/marxist/communist O-zerrhoid and his harmful policies as....

here it comes...

RACISM according to one rather loosely wrapped Jimmuh Cahtuh.

Liberals just don’t understand just how un-wrapped the rest of the world sees them! AND they have no shame!

Somewhere along the way the country determind it would be best to empty out all the mental hospitals back in the 80’s...

and here we are...ever more homeless unmedicated liberals.

local news has a story about “sexting”...they showed teens on the phone during the leave it to beaver era...and they conclude somehow that the technology is what got us here...

not an inkling about mentally ill liberals demanding God in general and Christianity in particular being expunged from the public square.

Nah....that couldn’t be it!
