We realy could use just a "blink... blink" smiley of some sort. Kind of a "I have no idea what is going on in your post" deal. Neither of the "confused" smilies really is serving my purposes, here.
Eh. I didn't really pop into this thread with any intention of doing some sort of in-depth analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the article, or to do a literary analysis. I was just agreeing with others on the shittiness of said article. Apologies for not writing an epic tome detailing all my issues with it.
I think I'm beginning to see where your username comes from. I'm really failing to see any sort of underlying point, or even logic, to this particular response.
That's cool, and all, I guess. Wasn't the article about evolution, though? Maybe I got turned around somewhere.
But the so-called "highlights" were inaccurate, and abridged to the point of uselessness. Ergo, it still failed in the purpose you ascribe to it.
What "knowledge" would establish my bona fides to weigh in on the crappiness of this article, in your opinion? I feel I should tailor my response to your specifications, in order to avoid wasting time.
You should try it sometime. Pointing and laughing can be cathartic!
The only thing I see shitty is the shallowness of the criticism.

See this is people who laugh at the other side but don't understand the issues themselves come in.

This is an important point against the argument that the universe is only 6,000 years old. How can that be when some of the light reaching the earth took more then 8,000 years to get here?

Did you believe it was meant to settle the issue instead of just give some highlights?

yet you are still in the discussion haven't shown any knowledge of the issue as of yet.

I can do a fine job refuting creationism myself and I can do it without simply pointing and laughing at people.
You should try it sometime. Pointing and laughing can be cathartic!
I am made of poison.
I can't even believe this.

The author used the phrase "proven theories." Ergo, their argument is invalid. *NM*
