RationalWiki:What is going on at ASK?/September 2009

September 2009
Science is a way of determining Adam's lost knowledge after the Fall. Or, that's what the "founders" of science said. Are you a scientist (in any field) and believe that God created man? Congratulations, you are now a Creation Scientist and reject at least a part of evolution! Among other bizarre insights, Philip is worried that a user is unable to tell storytelling from scientific theory. Man, he's just not even trying anymore. Pope Philip "Smug, Ignorant Wanker" Rayment makes heretics of the majority of Christians. Daniel1212, in his capacity as a large vacuum cleaner sucking up quotes from everywhere in sight, happens to suck up a reference from Ian ("Seat #666 in the European Parliament is Reserved for Antichrist John Paul II") Paisley. PJR: Molecules-to-man evolution is not testable scientifically. Uh, right; surely then we can write off all those "scientific" studies purporting to prove that evolution is a pile of bunk? Charmed life? PJR's finally had enuff of our Huw. Abusing user rights. "Not seriously abusing, so it's only a temporary removal of rights." What does he have to do to get banned? PJR sez: "Creationists (me included) have no problem with empirical science, including biology, but merely with non-empirical claims about (pre-)history." Irony meters shatter across Australia. Thou shalt not call creationists "morons". However, its OK to call Richard Dawkins a moron.
