Ben,

I agree with you, I’m mocking the things being said on UD.

Regardless of whether Richard Lenski completely obliterated Andrew Schlafly on a factual level, he fails in the important area of not reciprocating the respect shown by those implying that his work is a fraud.

hmmm …. with regards to “he fails” to whom to you refer?

I find Lenski’s response quite respectful, given the implied accusation of fraud and deceit on the part of Schlafly … on the other hand, I find the implied accusations by Schlafly incredibly disrespectful.

I should probably put warnings up when the stupid at a link reaches the level of mental-health hazard. Sorry Magpie :(

…oh my god, I foolishly followed the link. How do I scrub my brain clean? Whenever reading idiocy, I can’t help but have part of my brain working away on some argument that might help them understand why they’re idiots, but these people have taken wanton ignorance and made it an art form. that little part in the background was screaming like a kid in a dark closet. My head feels heavier, literally heavier, for having read that tripe.

I should go weigh myself right now, to determine the Weight of Stupid. I reckon I could get it to 21 grams if I can find a dodgy enough measuring device…

Professional liars and frauds probably don’t see “you’re a liar and a fraud” as an insult.
