Pharyngula Z. Meyers has power only on his own pathetic blog. That is why you will never hear from him in a decent forum like "brainstorms." I also predict that he will never follow through by granting Jason Rennie an interview. Neither will Richard Dawkins, Wesley Elsberry, Larry Moran, William Dembski, Denyse O'Leary or any other prominent blog sponsor on the present scene. They are all afraid to express their shaky convictions. Just think, Jason might ask them a question. Horrors! Interviews are like that don't you know.

Pharyngulists avoid open threads. They avoid discuss conception of evolution governed by law.

Instead of Myers brag of “veni, vidi, vici” we see only “I came, I made stench, I disappeared”.

It was you and I that "came, saw and conquered" Pharyngula. That is why we had to be disemvoweled, ridiculed, denigrated and finally banned. We have already conquered "After The Bar Closes." Let's find another "groupthink" to conquer. It is great sport. You lead the way!

It is EASY to believe isn't it?

I love it so!

As a commentary on P.Z. Meyers' honesty try to find the following thread in Pharynyula's February Archives.

"And the winner of the first Molly award is..."

Hurry, as once exposed he may replace it.

I anticipate a similar fate for the thread -

"John A. Davison: fool in his own words."

I love it so!

John,

the winner of Molly blablabla I can see at

http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2007/02/and_the_winner_of_the_first_mo.php

with your disemvoweled posts and my reply. Anyway I suppose it will persist at Google archive forever even when doctor Myers delete it.
Btw. doctor Myers has started produce his atheistic "articles" with frequency one article per hour. I am afraid he can soon oherheat himself.

I know Martin. The point is P.Z. Meyers claimed it was in the Archives of Pharyngula. If it is I can't find it. Can you? If there is one thing I loathe it is a liar. It is one of my many weaknesses.

Between 8:58 AM and 4:48 PM today, Pharyngula Z. Meyers introduced 5 (five) threads in a frantic but futile attempt to divert attention from what is happening to him at One Blog A Day. It is about time. We need more blogs like that and more neutral interviews like Jason Rennie's Sciphishow.

On monday April 23 at 8:00 PM EST Bill O'Reilly of Fox News will be interviewing Richard Dawkins. I called O'Reilly's attention to the One Blog a Day thread on P.Z. Meyers as a sort of preparation for that interview. It should be interesting. Dawkins no longer accepts my emails, openly dismissing me as of no consequence.

It doesn't get any better than this.

My Manifesto will be translated into Czech.

And that is all the news from Lake Brainstorms.

It seems I have been banned from oneblogaday.com/ without notice. My messages no longer appear. That is the mark of a first class forum.

Another conquest for the search for the truth. I wonder if Martin has suffered the same fate.

After several years attempting to establish a dialogue with Richard Dawkins, I finally received the following email, the only recognition he has ever offered that I exist.

"John A. Davison has been identified as a "time waster" and his message was automatically deleted."

It is about time Professor Dawkins and I thank you for finally exposing your insecurity for all to see.

I love it so!

P.Z. Meyers, Richard Dawkins' major atheist supporter has, in the last 20 hours, introduced seven (7) new threads on Pharyngula. That is in the period between 10:58 PM April 19 and 7:00 PM today. Oddly ebough, I don't believe he has mentioned Dawkins' upcoming interview with Bill O'Reilly Monday at 8:00 PM EST, although I may have missed it. It makes one wonder doesn't it?

It is hard to believe isn't it?

John,

I have tried to understand the main idea of your Manifesto, but failed, probably because of my limited background in Biology (no formal education).

I also have difficulty to understand the difference between mitotic division of diploid cells and semi-meiotic cell division.

Could you please, explain the most important points of this work in one-two paragraphs, or point to specific portion in Manifesto that explains it?

Thank you,

Mark

Thank you,

Mark

Since the Manifesto is right here, I refer you to section III. It is only a few pages in length. It presents a purely MECHANICAL explanation for how the SAME genes, when rearranged, can potentially produce a new species in a single instantaneous cytogenetic event.

Forget everything you may have been told about point mutations and gradualism because neither in my opinion ever had anything to do with creative evolution. By not having a formal education you have a definite advantage becuase you can look at things objectively.

With that in mind, get an inroductory biology textbook and compare its treatment of meiosis with the one I have presented in the Manifesto and I think you will see what I am talking about.

There is also a problem with the way meiosis is presented in most textbooks. What is called a "chromatid" is actually a chromosome. Both mitosis and meiosis involve a duplication of the chromosomes prior to division. The major difference is in the fact that the chromosmes in mitosis duplicate and separate entirely independently. In meiosis, the chromosome which has undergone an inversion or some other sort of structural change remains together with its duplicated partner during the first meotic division. That is the important difference. They do not separate from one another until the second division which of course produces a haploid egg or sperm.

I also ask that you accept my conviction that sexual reproduction is incapable of producing any sort of significant evolutionary progress.

If that is impossible, I cannot help you understand.

I hope that helps.

I am going out on a limb by predicting that Richard Dawkins will NOT be interviewed by Bill O'Reilly Monday night as scheduled. It matters not whether I am right or wrong because either way Dawkins is doomed. He is an ideological disaster whose time has finally come.

I love it so!
