First Post! Silly Creationist Commenters

So while perusing ERV's blog, I came across in the comments a link to this and of course found it hella amusing. Maybe because of ERV's general call to students to debunk creationists and such I felt that maybe it was the time to stop lurking and start writing. So first of all, my "credentials": I'm a third year student at University of Toronto studying Medical Anthropology and Health Studies, I initially started out as a biology student, so I have atleast a basic background in sciences. So I'm by no means an expert, but nor am I uneducated. I probably wont get down and dirty with the issues because I just dont usually have the energy to, but I'll post up a few rants and such as they come.

Anyways!

That particular post caused me to laugh, for this little tidbit in the comments, replying to someone defending Aaron Elias:

"Yeah, certifiable progressive wingnut. Clearly, we’re dealing with a member of
the church of liberalism. The creationist end of the spectrum is
probably anticipating this film because it will expose to the general population
how evolutionists suppress critical discussion of and dissent from the Theory of
Evolution (T.o.E.). What frightens evolutionists most, however, is the film will
also attract the attention of liberals concerned about academic freedom"Source

Church of liberalism? My god, sounds like this guy has been worshipping at its local neighbour, the church of Republican Bullshitism with it's high priestess (would they actual allow a woman such a position?) Ann Coulter. It is absolutely amusing watching the confusing dichotomy in the posters comments, on one hand he asserts that evolutionist are shaking in their boots at the very thought of this movie because their peers will figure out their grand scheme, while on the other attributing to them the awesome power of duping the entire public and academic systems into accepting one theory. It gets even better when he actually acknowledges that:

"1This is not to say that most scientists disavow the theory of evolution. Most
polls indicate that the overwhelming majority of scientists avow the theory of
evolution, especially in the most relevant biological sciences."source

Hmmm, A clue Sherlock? Nothing but another example of religious double think, believe one thing while all the evidence points to the contrary. Does he really think that all these scientists, who have spent the greater part of their lives studying, testing and researching, would simply accept a theory on blind faith alone. Oh, wait thats what creationists do? Seems like someone is projecting their own mannerisms onto others! No matter the fact that he obviously has no idea how the scientific method works, but like many other creationists, project all sorts of odd conspiracy theories onto the more liberal parts of society.

Well thats all I have to say for tonight :D

Toodles!
