Open Letter to NephilimFree

*NEWSFLASH* He replied! New video in progress.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been blocked! Again!

I tried to show him the evidence in the comments for his Zebra Zonkey pt1 video but he just won't listen will he...
Mirror this message, get it out there, make sure he can't ignore it!

We all know he won't reply, won't listen, but i'm having fun so don;t worry about me wasting my time, there's always time for nephy :)

This is the exact message I PMed him:
"For some strange reason my comments are no longer appearing on your channel, how odd.

I'm trying to link you to my video on the Lenski long term e.coli population experiments here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUhYGgtwNkE

It shows how 59 mutations lead to increased survivability in 2 distinct e.coli populations. You say this is impossible.

An overview of the experiments can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._coli_long-term_evolution_experiment

Proteins aren't perfect matches for their substrates, a mutation resulting in a better fit makes the protein more efficient and is generally selected for by natural selection. I'm interested to know how you think they achieved these very convincing results if there is no way whatsoever of the e.coli gaining any new ability or populations increasing in survivability. I'm also interested to know how much you actually know about how proteins are synthesised via RNA.

Thanks,
Ainulindale21"

The randomish bit on proteins was part of the comment debate that he refused to listen to. Needless to say he's deleted everything apart from 2 comments, one which he answered pretty fairly (he found a dictionary definition of information which included DNA as an example...), the other so he could reply with a snide remark on how I reject with my heart not my mind.. yeah..

bloody hell do you two really have to fill my inbox with this tripe?

[TheUberAtheist]

People should flag NephilimFree's videos as scams...

[HappyCabbie]

That is an awesome nephie picture. I will put a link back to this video as I intend to use it.

[wowpapa]

He has blocked me as well for one comment. He wants to make me looks stupid which he only made himself look like a tyrannical fascist that censors. He is a fool.

@MrSeymourButtz

what contradiction? you love toes. That's it.

you have a foot fetish.

it's weird, but that's alright i don't judge it as long as it is not pathological.

I never contradicted myself. what is written at DSM-IV-TR is precisely what i said.

[transtlantic]

@AestheticAtheist

You keep refering to me. Therefore i can adress you. Specially when you try to slander about me.

that one regarding "agnostic atheism" is priceless.

Tell me... what do you think i am?

Atheist atheist, or Atheist agnostic?

[transtlantic]

@AestheticAtheist

LOL...i always love when you storm the board trying to imply that you actually don't have a "side" regarding Evolution or creationism/ID.

I am not making stuff up. Evolution debunks ID. it has nothing to do with god.

but...wait for it: i am an "agnostic" that will believe in ID if evidence for ID is presented. LOLOLOLOL

love this one.

I don't obsess, moron. you appear out of nothing after days and try to make a straw man against me.

Not my fault you don't question your beliefs

@EternalSkeptic8

it is best to ignore this transtlantic he is trolling you, from his comments to me, you and others then we are dealing with somebody who is a few sandwiches short of a picnic, I will ignore him and suggest you the do the same, why waste time feeding delusional trolls like transtlantic.

"I never said rocks have souls liar or that there are unicorns"

This transtlantic appears to be a compulsive liar as well as a deluded freak.

What an oddball he is.
