Heh, yeah, took me long enough, and this wasn't even supposed to be my next video, but I couldn't help wanting to respond after I saw his vid. It annoyed me!
After looking at some of Mack's other vids, I've realized that he is indeed one of those people who thinks education (particularly college) is a bad thing.
Now I feel a bit silly for putting it in my video, as I clearly hadn't done enough research on him first. :)
Wonderful is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of MackQuigley(or quigey as I like to call him). I think more along the lines of desperation, juvenile, and arrogant when I think about him. He also lacks any real scientific knowledge about damn near everything. He's good at insulting people who believe things differently and have the ability to back it up. This is why my brain vomits when I watch his videos. It's quigtos intolerant.
Hehe, I agree... and I am actually beginning to regret ever wasting my time (which it invariably is) on him, especially after watching some of the correspondance between him and Danmill23.
Same thing with the mikefoz series. He claimed victory against mike on several videos then showed no evidence and called him an idiot. It's no biggie though really. You in more than one way showed some of his moronic followers that his arguments lack both validity and maturity. He also claims there is undeniable historical proof to his claims and has nothing to show in return. However, several of the people he insults show evidence to substantiate their claims. As did you. No time wasted
I think a lot of his subscribers are people who refer to people like you to debunk them. His ratings aren't usually over 2 1/2-3 stars. Don't post a video reply to him if there's already a lot of replies though. From personal experience if I don't recognize the name of the person under the video in the first 4 videos then I won't bother to look.
Videos made by reasonable people like you Thunderf00t, dprjones, and aronra and the others do reach people. They reached me. They opened my eyes to reason. Thank you :-)
great video!

Did Mac respond to this? I don't get the sense he is open to hear anything but his own thoughts.

Not directly. He made a video where he sort of responded to some of the points I made, but lumped it together with a bunch of other responses.
It was all junk, though, and it became clear to me that nothing really gets through with that guy.
He's one of the worst cases I've ever seen.
Nowadays I'm telling people not to waste their time with him, which I learned. ;)

I don't think he has any bones in his brain to break.

You should be. I can't get my brain to stop vomiting.

Lol, that's the bad thing about doing this; you "get" to watch all kinds of "wonderful" videos... and then you get others to watch them, too!
Anyway, I'd blame Danmill23. He's the one that first directed my attention towards this guy. :)

Well, if he does reply I'm not expecting it to be any different than what he did with mikefoz or Danmill23.
But yeah, it's his followers, and those that may think about following him, that we have to reach.
I do hope it reaches someone.

Yeah, you're right, I am just very slow with my responses, took me a couple of days to whip it up with the narration and pics.
However, as far as I know, the reply you see first under video responses is the one that has been posted last, right? Or maybe I misunderstood...
