M: Are you asking me to define evolution without using a definition? I think, too, that you're implying I'm a dimwit using the grammatically incorrect "to suspect". Ya don'tst wants ta use bad grammar when ya implys I and Anybody's ain't dumb.
S: I've made worse ones than that during this thread.
M: Good grief, you are defending yourself by admitting you are aware of mistakes you made in prior posts. I hope you'll let Moonbeam do that.
S: It's not like your pathetic argument is worth even a spell check for that matter.
M: If I had an archive of Anandtech forums I could produce for you hundreds of posts explaining in lengthy and laborious detail how unimportant I am.
S: What are you proud of yourself or something? :laugh:
Try coming up with some real logic as evidence you aren't a dimwit instead.
M: Certainly I am proud of myself. I fought the Great War and won.
That I am a dimwit in your eyes is perfectly ok with me. Things will get better when you discover that I love you and you get over your miff.
M: What is the fact of evolution? Well lets see. That would be that along time ago all life on earth was single celled and over incomprehensibly long long long long long long ages of time those single cells became more complex till we have the organisms of today. It's an ineluctable fact that this happened.
S: Very well, you've basically stated the THEORY of evolution. There are certainly ineluctable facts that support it yet any respected scientist, even one that believes in the theory, will clearly state it is not itself a a fact. I thought you would come around to proving my point eventually.
M: Hehe I prove your point when you control the terms of the debate. You say I stated the THEORY of evolution according to you but that's not what I was saying. I am too much of a dimwit to rattle off the Theory of Evolution. I would have to look it up in some compacted form to express it well I think. What I did was tell you that evolution is a fact which of course it is.
I have from the beginning been completely aware of the subtle point you wish to make that a theory is not a fact. The progress of science has seen a number of revolutions of theories. I know all that. I am saying that evolution happened and that it did is a fact. I am talking plain down to earth ordinary English where a spade is a spade whatever else it may be. I'm not at all interested in the fact that a card is just congealed energy. You can lose your shirt if you draw the wrong one. You don't go to bed at night worrying that the sun might not come up and you don't tell Fundies that Evolution is a Theory. It is a theory about a fact that factually so much a fact that we might as well for government purposes call it a fact just like we know a rock will fall. You don't want to give wiggle room to people who can't logically think. Once they get to know that evolution is a fact then they can deal with the rarefied intellectually accurate fact that the theory itself is not a fact fact fact type fact but a scientifically rigorous peer reviewed consensus that tries to explain the actual fact of evolution by providing an explanation for how it might have occurred. But even if the theory is wrong, evolution still happened because the book of the Earth has it written clearly in there. And what are you going to believe, the book that God actually wrote as the earth or the one that got wrote on paper.
S: You still don't seem to get it. You are confusing a supporting facts as proof. Any theory will never be proven. It can only be accepted as sound and acted upon as if it were fact.
M: I knew you'd come around.
S: Maybe you're just cleverly playing stupid again....
M: Now now, it's not the best strategy to call people stupid who say the same thing as you.
