I made no claim about being or not being a creationist or a Christian
or a Promethean myth worshipper or anything else that has to do with
philosophy or metaphysics or religion. I did not talk about my blood
type either because it too has nothing to do with the rules of science,
foremost of which is to tell the truth. And the truth is that scientific
results are presented statistically and some of the analytical
statistics can prove things and, where they can, it is done on the basis
of probability, 0.95 (P<.05) being the common standard.
And when the people on this list deny and ridicule the importance of
telling the truth and deny and ridicule the rules of proof statistics,
they have not changed science. They have only ruled themselves out of
the realm of science into the realm of anti-science.
There was only one argument: for the truth and the proof rules of
science on the one side versus the lies with any kind of perversion
means to win for evolution on the other side. The perverts lost.
As long as they lose, there is hope for the planet.
