Stood there boldly
Flamin' in the sun
Felt like a million eons
Felt like number one
The height of arrogance
I'd never believed that strong
Like a rock
I was eighteen
Didn't have a care
Looking for missing links
Not a fossil to spare
But I was foolish and
Deceived everywhere
Like a rock
My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My Descent had purpose
My posts were quick and slight
And I held firmly
To what I believed was right
Like a rock
Like a rock, I was right as Darwin could be
Like a rock, nothin' ever got to me
Like a rock, I was something to see
Like a rock
And I flamed arrow straight
Unencumbered by the contrary weight
Of all these Creationists and their facts
I stood proud, I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my evolution, religiously
Twenty years now
Where'd they go?
twenty years
I don't know
sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they've gone
And sometimes late at night
When I'm bathed in the monitors' light
The Creationist comes callin' and is mostly right
And I recall
recall
Like a rock. Flamin' arrow straight
Like a rock, pingin' from the gate
Like a rock, carryin' Darwins' weight
Like a crock
Like a rock, the sun upon my skin
Like a rock, hard against the Inherited wind
Like a rock, I see myself down again
Like a rock
Well it seems to have been designed solely for edsheppa. It was a roaring success.
Junior-referential placemarker!
According to LBB, it's a secret code from Darwin Central to all conspirators about how to behave in these threads.
A FEW of the MATERIALIST'S MIRACLES |
NATURAL PROCESS THAT EXPLAINS THE MIRACLE |
---|---|
Matter has always existed/ matter is eternal. |
|
Matter existed before (!) time began. |
|
All the matter was compressed into the size of a point (some say "infinitely small"). |
|
The point exploded (The universe created itself). |
|
Time began. |
|
The universe was 100 trillion degrees celsius (some say "infinitely high"). |
|
Only quarks and photons existed which gave rise to hydrogen. |
|
Hydrogen gave rise to all the other elements. |
|
Some particles accelerated beyond the speed of light. (requires infinite energy) |
|
The distribution of matter is not smooth but the distrubution of MBR is smooth. |
|
The clumping of distant quasars appears to put us in the center of the universe. |
|
Particles departing from each other at the speed of light formed planets and stars |
|
Rain on rocks gave rise to life (spontaneous generation) |
|
Rocks gave rise to intelligence. |
|
1-celled structures invented their own genetic info. |
|
Frogs gave rise to princes. |
|
Modern spores are found in precambrian shale. |

JASTROW: It's the question then arises as to what created the beginning and what came before the beginning, and these are questions science can't answer. And so they indicate that there are limits to the reach of scientific inquiry, which is a sobering and humbling result to come out of science itself.
Yes, you're correct. Not only is the Aptx suspected of being a hoax, it is worthless as a transitional form because fully developed birds are found in older rock.
The only way evolution can go from no transitional forms to an instant abundance of transitional forms is to redefine "transitional."
I normally do. It is when the information pointed to by a link is trivialized that a production of the true source seems necessary.
"It is liberal, deviant, and incredibly boring."
"It is called a Cuomo (( fr thread // link )) -sexual."
Beep. Circle takes the square. No redefinition is needed as nothing researchers point to as a transitional form will ever be accepted by creationists out of shear orneriness.
I think you should refrain from posting booklength sized replies. If you have to post so much material, post it as a thread. Or summarize your argument and post a link to your source.

It would be delightful to be free of spam postings. If I recall, that sort of thing got medved into trouble.
