Gotten back on his second law of dynamics grinder, but now you *can* have more complex forms from simpler ones.

Doesn't seem to mesh well with his earlier argument that you *can't* have more complex forms from simpler ones, so therefore evolution is wrong and Pixies Did It.

[Bertrandization]

"A random mish-mash of molecule similarities between animals chosen post hoc to discredit evolution is a more reasonable determinant of similarity between animals than DNA."

Who does he convince with this? No wonder they want to teach small children before they develop critical faculties.

@BigLundi Where show me!.

@bradandnicole Real quick, what about the literal hundreds or thousands we've had that aren't?

@bradandnicole GISH is a legend...We only see left handed amino acids when proteins are present..but proteins only form when u have LEFT HANDED AMINO ACIDS!!..Paradox....so how can life happen through a evolution process from simple chemicals and molecules, impossible.now science says crystals brought life here.thats not a testable science its a faith based assumption..all man can do is play with life and take pre existing information and rearranged it

[Beattietron]

bradandnicole = Collingwood supporter + Creationist.

Coincidence?

The toothless morons on Sam's Mailbag have more lucidity than creationists.

[Bertrandization]

"Small children have the faculties to intelligently evaluate complex scientific evidence. We should teach them nonsense alongside science."

Grubby, grubby man.

[bradandnicole]

And what about all the missing link frauds weve had just go and google missing link frauds or evolution frauds and youll see what i mean.

[bradandnicole]

Typical evos we all know about them how they lie all the time and not just lie a lot but they know themselves they lie but still tell the lies anyway.And not just lie all the time but never can produce any evidence for darwins tree of life just like ida the missing link finally they say, but we all know its just a extinct lemur thats all.And i thought the evos found the missing links years ago and now all of a sudden they arent the missing links this new ida is LOL.

Gish reminds me of Foghorn Leghorn.

I said, I said listen to me when I'm talkin to ya boy......ya can't catch a chicken yet....y'all's too small.
