    Sorry, JC, but in almost 3000 posts from you in this thread, I've seen nothing but soap-boxing, trollery and clowning. I have no further intention of responding to anything you write in reply to my posts.

    John, are you ready to reach out yet? Have you accepted the need for help? Have you accepted the need for friendships yet? You are alone if you have the smiles of many facing you, yet not, if they smile with you. Help us help you, help love help loneliness!

    Okay I'm not reverse trolling anymore. JC I don't care if you're a troll or not

    What are you still doing here? You've given no arguments at all, all you've
    done is spoken about religion in a thread on evolution or repeated the
    things that we've shown in excruciating detail to be wrong. What are
    you doing here?

    ... OK John (whoever you are) ... I'm here to help you too ... just reach out and believe on Jesus Christ ... and you will be Saved.

    You see SW he knows all this. He knows his argument is stupid and that he's told lies and had his ass handed to him.

    But he's a troll and doesn't care.

    Now, I'm just enjoying seeing him flail around in his sad attempts to provoke more pointless argument.

    If you don't believe me ... perhaps you will believe Prof Dawkins ... when he says the following about the difficulties of the fossil record (from an Evolutionist point of view):-
    "It is as though they [fossils] were just planted there, without any evolutionary history. Needless to say this appearance of sudden planting has delighted creationists...
    Both schools of (Evolutionst) thought (Punctuationists and Gradualists) despise so-called scientific creationists equally, and both agree that the major gaps are real, that they are true imperfections in the fossil record. The only alternative explanation of the sudden appearance of so many complex animal types in the Cambrian era is divine creation and both reject this alternative."
    Prof Richard Dawkins, 'The Blind Watchmaker', pp. 229-230

    What part of "we know you don't believe this" aren't you getting JC? Or are you really that desperate to troll?

    Taken from "The Quote Mine Project" dedicated to offering context to all
    of the out-of-context quotes used by horrendously dishonest creationists
    (those whom JC is imitating):

    Quote #40
    "It is as though they [fossils] were just planted there, without
    any evolutionary history. Needless to say this appearance of
    sudden planting has delighted creationists. ...Both schools of
    thought (Punctuationists and Gradualists) despise so-called
    scientific creationists equally, and both agree that the major
    gaps are real, that they are true imperfections in the fossil
    record. The only alternative explanation of the sudden
    appearance of so many complex animal types in the Cambrian
    era is divine creation and (we) both reject this alternative."
    (Dawkins, Richard, The Blind Watchmaker, W.W. Norton &
    Company, New York, 1996, pp. 229-230)
    While it can be gleaned from this quote, it needs to be pointed out
    specifically that this is a discussion of Dawkins' disagreements with
    Stephen Jay Gould and Niles Eldredge over Punctuated Equilibrium and
    Dawkins is here discussing the fact that Gould and Eldredge would agree
    with him that the "sudden appearance" of animals in the Cambrian
    Explosion is really the result of the imperfections of the fossil record.
    The part in the ellipsis is an explanation for this, as follows:
    "Evolutionists of all stripes believe, however, that this really
    does represent a very large gap in the fossil record, a gap that
    is simply due to the fact that, for some reason, very few
    fossils have lasted from periods before about 600 million years
    ago. One good reason might be that many of these animals had
    only soft parts to their bodies: no shells or bones to fossilize.

    If you are a creationist you may think that this is special
    pleading. My point here is that, when we are talking about
    gaps of this magnitude, there is no difference whatever in
    the interpretations of 'punctuationists' and 'gradualists'."

    JC, you're either an easily led fool :p or just a master troller :pac:
    I think it's the latter, I'd say he purposely quoted this in order to lure
    us into catching him out because the level of stupidity otherwise is
    simply too huge.

    Trolls post to goad people into replying. Good trolls manage to set bona fide posters against each other, then take some warped enjoyment from watching the fight. Poor trolls just get slapped down for their obvious trolling; they only keep going because any attention is better than none.

    I used to come on boards.ie about 4-5 years ago and remember arguing with JC about 'gaps' in the fossil record etc. It is amazing that he is a troll of biblical proportions and incapable of learning anything.

    It is indeed special pleading on Prof Dawkins part ... and thanks for the clarification.

    To which category of Troll do you belong ... or are you trying to tell us that you are a poor Troll that is trying, without much success, to be a good one?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,615 ✭✭✭✭J C


    Okay I'm not reverse trolling anymore.
    An open admission of trolling ... if ever I saw one!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,234 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    Now JC if you really thought we were all trolls and you really were an innocent (but apparently completely stupid) creationist, you'd just stop posting here and leave.

    But instead you're trying another silly and sad tactic to provoke an argument, because you are a troll.

    I keep to the truth ... and whether or not you are trolling ... or just in denial is a moot point!!!

    ... as ye steadily lose credibility every time ye try to defend the indefensible!!!!

    You are a troll. It's as plain as day.
    Drop the act.

    No, obviously if it could talk it would be in favour of creationism because
    remember the talking snake in the bible :eek: :rolleyes: makes sense right? ;)

    I think whacking day from the simpsons would become real & more
    violent though because the christians would purposely target them
    calling snakes Satan & feel a holy justification for embarking on a
    holy massacre of our slithery brethren. Maybe Harry Potter
    fanatics might get a bit uppity too with that anti-Voldemort bias :o

    It's amazing what fictional writing could potentially lead to :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,747 ✭✭✭smokingman


    You know it's time you brought this to a head, you've known for years that no-one seemed interested in what you had to say, you've known since that people may have done if your fantasies were true...if you could just grab their attention...
    Your sense of self has nearly disappeared in all this, hasn't it...it's time to move on.
    It's time to move on to a stage where you have something of your own to say, where you can stand there and converse, keeping the attention because you're an interesting human being and not just a robot. Let me help you break free, let me show you the delights of the really real world...let me in for your own sake.

    But you can't drop the "preferred races" bit. How else would the creationists be able to accuse him of racism?

    So are you saying that Darwin was a racist ... and a Troll?
