This is just for you David Springer. How do you like them apples?
This little essay is in perfect accord with Tim Flannery's claim that present changes in climate are occurring 30 times faster than in the past. What used to take a thousand years can now take place in thirty three. Scary isn't it?

Here is the other big denier from Uncommon Descent, DLH, aka David L. Hagen, this time citing Anthony Watts, (retired weather forecaster). Incidentally, Watts had to ban me from his blog because I didn't agree with his assessment of global warming. It is the blog Czar's way or the highway. Right Anthony Watts? Right David Springer? Right Paul Zachary Myers? Right Wesley Elsberry? Right Percy, whoever that is, over at EvC?
It doesn't get any better than this.
I love it so!

What happens next is that nothing happens. As a critic of both the Bible-banging "Fundies" and the atheist "Darwimps" I am not allowed to exist by either faction. This is not a recent development. That is the way it is supposed to be, the way it was "prescribed" to be.
One of my convictions is that there must have been (past tense) at least two Creators, one benevolent, the other malevolent. I honestly believe that Paul Zachary Myers and Richard Dawkins are fundamentally evil as they attack every institution that has served to build Western Civilization including the
Christian Church and the American Republic which was firmly established on the Christian ethic.
Of course they do not regard themselves as evil, but how else can one describe those who must actively promote atheism? What is virtuous in atheism? On what principles does the atheist base his actions? What is of value in describing the President of the United Sates as "asshole-in-chief" or the Holy Father as "bennie?" Why do both Myers and Dawkins insist on actively converting others to their position? What do they hope to accomplish?
Do they really believe that life originated and evolved by chance? I doubt that very much. Dawkins and Myers do not qualify even as humanists. They are forced to take their intractable Godless stance because they are congenitally incapable of seeing that there must have been (past tense) a purpose in the universe, something many of us feel, see and hear very clearly. They are pathetic, doomed, like Stephen J. Gould and Ernst Mayr before them, to become nothing but footnotes in the history of evolutionary science.
"Then there are the fanatical atheists whose intolerance is the same as that of the religious fanatics, and it springs from the same source...They are creatures who can't hear the music of the spheres."
Albert Einstein
"A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject."
Winston Churchill
In three words Myers and Dawkins were apparently, as William Wright's book substantiates - "Born That Way."
It is hard to believe isn't it?

I see David Springer and others are still belaboring the Darwinians. What a monumental waste of time. The only way to deal with the Darwinian fairy tale is to pretend it never existed because it never did.
After all, that is exactly how the Darwinians have always dealt with their critics isn't it? They still do. Why honor them by calling attention to the idiotic invention of a Victorian intellectual lightweight named Charles Darwin.
It is hard to believe isn't it?
Laugh at them, taunt them, expose them as the cowards they all are. That is what I do with them as well as with those who insist on a living personal God for which not a scintilla of evidence exists. Neither camp has ever produced anything significant with respect to the only question which has ever been in question - the mechanism of a long ago terminated, goal directed, planned sequence now in its final phase which is, in my opinion, degeneration and extinction, the only aspects of the evolutionary mystery now manifest.

David "I love being right" Springer continues to question that man has fundamentally altered this planet. He seems to identify with Anthony "sunspots" Watts, continuing to assume that the rapid climate changes we are seeing everywhere are a result of factors exogenous to the planet. He cherry picks data favorable to his biased position, oblivious to the larger picture being gathered from weather stations and the findings of professional scientists measuring rapid changes taking place in the salinity and pH of the world's various oceans, the primary sink for atmospheric CO2. He also is apparently oblivious to the great increases we have experienced in violent weather, record high temperatures, precipitation and flooding which have been especially obvious here in the USA. I wonder what it will take to make him admit he was dead wrong. I am confident that we will soon find out. I shouldn't say this but I love it so!

For some strange reason Springer is using the above thread to respond to insults being cast on him over at After The Bar Closes. I think he may be losing it.

Since I was uncertain about the future of my weblog - Professor Davison's Weblog -
john.a.davison.free.fr/
I have, with the invaluable help of an anonymous benefactor, transferred the contents of that blog to a new site - John A. Davison's Weblog -
jadavison.wordpress.com
To participate in the new blog you will have to reregister but that just takes a few moments. As before, whatever you write will remain even if I find it necessary to drop you from the user list which will only occur if you refuse to be civil to me and the other users of the blog.
I hope you will transfer your attention and participation to the new blog. Thank you very much.

Note that Paul Zachary Myers is no longer presenting new threads at Pharyngula. Aptly named PZminion is now doing the new threads. I hope Myers is OK. What would we do without Myers, Dawkins and Elsberry, the three major surviving proponents of the biggest hoax in the history of science?

I love it so!

So much for Conservapedia. I guess I am not conservative (bigoted) enough.

comments August 19 and previous.
Alan Fox, as usual, is doing his level best to represent Wesley Elsberry who has now blocked me from viewimg "After The Bar Closes" from my computer. ARN and richardawkins.net have already honored me with that distinction.
