Nice dodge, I'm sure no one has ever said that about your OP. I see you got nothing to offer when you have to think for yourself. Maybe I should re-post it a few more times, would that help?Everything you have written is either false, or so vague as to be juvenile.
The thread stated
a. In order for communism, statism, collectivism, Liberalism, whatever, to succeed, religion and belief in God must be banished from the public consciousness.
Then, quoted Lenin to document same.
b. The OP stated that there is life on earth, and pointed out that the Founder attributed same to the Creator.
c. I quoted the editor of Nature magazine, pointing out that human mental abilities differs from that of other organism.
d. I quoted Alfred Wallace, co-inventor of Darwinism, "physical characteristics," Wallace observes in this essay, "are not explicable on the theory of variation and survival of the fittest" -- the criteria of Darwinian natural selection.
e. Wallace labeled much of Darwin's theory as "evolutionary fantasy."
f. I stated that the above reveals the value of Darwin to Marxists, and the joy of Engels upon latching on to Darwin's theory.
g. the most basic requirement of science: the conclusions of reproducible experimentation, known as 'The Scientific Method,'
h. The fossil record should provide proof of the gradual progression toward diversity....but even Darwin admits that it doesn't: "I can give no satisfactory answer..... The case at present must remain inexplicable; and may be truly urged as a valid argument against the views here entertained."
i. ....many organisms suddenly appear remains the fact to this day.... with no transitional fossils preceding them in the fossil record, most of the major phyla presently on earth appear abruptly in the fossil record.
j. ...even one animal species into a different species has never been directly observed either in the laboratory or in the field."
k. ...we have witnessed no new species emerge in the wild in recorded history. Also, most remarkably, we have seen no new animal species emerge in domestic breeding.
That includes no new species of fruitflies in hundreds of millions of generations in fruitfly studies,...
And...noted that scientific proof of Darwin's theory is the Litmus Test.
Now....was there any of the above that a moron like you is prepared to deny?
Speak up, moron!!!
True or not none of these are branches of science and Lenin was no scientist.a. In order for communism, statism, collectivism, Liberalism, whatever, to succeed, religion and belief in God must be banished from the public consciousness.
Then, quoted Lenin to document same.
You use a politician's view. A politician from over 200 years ago.b. The OP stated that there is life on earth, and pointed out that the Founder attributed same to the Creator.
argumentum ad verecundiam. (Using an authority as evidence in your argument when the authority is not really an authority on the facts relevant to the argument)
Just about every living thing has abilities that differ from those of other organisms. And that is just what you'd expect from evolution since organisms would otherwise have to directly compete and one or the other would become extinct.c. I quoted the editor of Nature magazine, pointing out that human mental abilities differs from that of other organism.
A scientist from 100+ years ago? Wallace had some personal issues with Darwin but he independently came up with essentially the same theory so whatever problems he had with Darwin were minor.d. I quoted Alfred Wallace, co-inventor of Darwinism, "physical characteristics," Wallace observes in this essay, "are not explicable on the theory of variation and survival of the fittest" -- the criteria of Darwinian natural selection.
Yet on the major point of evolutionary decent from a common ancestor, he was in complete agreement.e. Wallace labeled much of Darwin's theory as "evolutionary fantasy."
So? A completely science-free statement. Humanists were quick to endorse Galileo and Copernicus while Religious authorities condemned them. We know who was right.f. I stated that the above reveals the value of Darwin to Marxists, and the joy of Engels upon latching on to Darwin's theory.
The Scientific Method has been applied to evolution many times and has always revealed the truth of it. The dating and examination of every fossil is a test of the theory.g. the most basic requirement of science: the conclusions of reproducible experimentation, known as 'The Scientific Method,'
Nothing in the theory requires that evolution be gradual.h. The fossil record should provide proof of the gradual progression toward diversity....but even Darwin admits that it doesn't: "I can give no satisfactory answer..... The case at present must remain inexplicable; and may be truly urged as a valid argument against the views here entertained."
The fossil record has only been read for less than 200 years. The earth is constantly destroying fossils. It is hardly surprising to learn it is incomplete.i. ....many organisms suddenly appear remains the fact to this day.... with no transitional fossils preceding them in the fossil record, most of the major phyla presently on earth appear abruptly in the fossil record.
We never directly observed an atom. Do you doubt they exist? Why?j. ...even one animal species into a different species has never been directly observed either in the laboratory or in the field."
Recorded history is less than 5,000 years. Not many generations of humans in that time but I'd bet there are new species of virus (HIV?).k. ...we have witnessed no new species emerge in the wild in recorded history. Also, most remarkably, we have seen no new animal species emerge in domestic breeding.
That includes no new species of fruitflies in hundreds of millions of generations in fruitfly studies,...
As for domestication, have we tried? What is the value of turning a cow into a dog?
Since you like to see the same thing reposted over and over I thought I'd oblige. At least until you attempted to rebut instead of dismiss.
"True or not none of these are branches of science and Lenin was no scientist."
1. There is no distinction between science and politics.....except in the smallest of minds....uneducated and uninformed folks,....you.
Antonio Gramsci, Italian Marxist theoretician and founding member and one-time leader of the Communist Party of Italy. Gramschi’s motto is that of liberals today: “that all life is "political."
2. In October 1919, Lenin paid a secret visit to the laboratory of the great physiologist I. P. Pavlov, a Russian physiologist known chiefly for the concept of the conditioned reflex. In his classic experiment, he found that a hungry dog can be trained to associate the sound of a bell with food and will salivate at the sound even in the absence of food.
Lenin wanted to find out if his work on the conditional reflexes of the brain might help the Bolsheviks control European behaviour. “I want the masses of Russia to follow a Communistic pattern of thinking and reacting,” Lenin explained. Pavlov was astounded. It seemed that Lenin wanted him to do for humans what he had already done for dogs.
“Do you mean that you would like to standardise the population of Russia? Make them all behave in the same way?” he asked. “Exactly” replied Lenin. “Man can be corrected. Man can be made what we want him to be.”… Orlando Figes, "A People's Tragedy," p.732-733
