Get your facts correct.
You said "He was a Jew who left Germany and the holocaust...".
He was visiting the US and never returned, getting citizenship in 1940, having left in 1933, two years BEFORE the holocaust.
Ummm... do you think the persecution of the Jews had an official start date and that nothing happened before the announcement? He was avoiding the hostile politics that began long before Hitler finally came into power. In 1933, Hitler was already appointed Chancellor and a Jew would have a hard time escaping Germany if they waited much longer. OK, it's not like someone sent him an invitation to stay and attend the official "Holocaust (TM)", by invitation only!

<quoted text>I don't need to post a great "refute" (please stop using that word as a noun, you idiot). All I need to do to refute that study is to tell you one simple thing - dark energy exists, and has been confirmed. Their study was an attempt to explain away dark energy, and now that we have confirmed it's existence, their study is bunk.
And I'm pretty sure that you literally cannot see replies that contradict you. Usually, I would be a little taken aback if someone was to keep spamming the same stuff and pretend like it hadn't already been replied to, but with you, I am used to it.
Good and glad you agree, there are no replies that contradict me. Then you will agree I have made these points that you and your cohorts are unable to refute.

1. Creationist predictions that if the creation was made by the hand of God there would be no need for junk dna are currently being validiated.
2. Evolutionists that shoved junk dna down creationists throats over the past decade, were actually presenting flawed and incomplete data and now have to suck eggs.
3. Evolutionists asserted that this non functional dna was the left overs from evolution. Now this great evidence has been falsified. TOE has either a failed prediction or never could make a prediction around non coding dna.
4. Creationist predictions around all organs having function and not being left overs from some deep evolutionary event are also being validiated.
5. Evolutionists predicted and thought they'd found left over non functional organs and called them vestigial.
6. Evolutionists have had to redefine the definition of vestigial because what has been found is that vestigial organs do have function. Not only do they have function they also have a different function.
7. Evolutionists have great hand waving abilities and poof mythical theropods into existence to save their bird paradigm from total falsification. This is an example of evo handwaving.
8. Handwaving has been evoked in relation to all fossil and genomic evidence in support of TOE, including mankinds ancestry with chimps.
9. TOE has predictive ability akin to a crystal ball.
10. The support I can provide for creationism could not be worse than the 150 years of instability and falsifications evos have to offer.

That kinda sums up what I have demonstrated that you no longer want to talk about because none of these above have been successfully refuted.

So what do you want to talk about now? Evo egomania.

Heaven only knows I have had to repeat myself many times. If you think you're so great and actually had something to say I am sure you would speak to it again. You've got nothing of substance to add at all. You just want to save face on this forum by using obvious avoidance.

Hence not only are you a looser, you are also a huge pretender.

If my reputation was being jeopardized by Charles Idemi who wanted my endorsement, I'd definitely call that a state of duress.
As is, I don't know if he was preaching or answering a question so I won't put words in his mouth.
I am going to give you what Albert Einstein said before his death, he said, " Religion without science is blind and science without religion is lame ".
Did he say that willingly or under duress ?

I.... DON'T..... KNOW!

He may have said it to keep family happy. He may have been promoting his legacy. He may have had a speech pre-written for him by the Illuminati.

All I can tell you is that I don't care. I don't even know what he means by it. It's not a scientific opinion.

Actually you have it backward. Theistic evolutionists acknowledge that god is powerful enough to create life however he likes and that the evidence indicates he used evolution.
[cliche rant deleted at this point]
Like I said TOE needs to be sent to the philosophy camp.

That appears to be the only base you wish to have an evolution/creation discussion on.

Your post suggests that you have no intension of adhering to a scientific debate.

If you can't refute my points, they are established. That does mean TOE is false. What it does mean is that TOE is not the closed case evolutionists like to present it as being.

I don't want to waste my day discussing philosophy. I already belong to another philosophy forum so I won't be discussing philosophy here.

Science based discussion is all I am here to partake in. So if no evo can falsify my points I'll leave you all to discuss Jesus, languages, spiritual texts and their veracity, and the philosophies of life.

Cheers....

No, but your comment indicated that you thought einstein immigrated in response to the holocaust, which clearly did not start until after the invasion of poland in 1935.

Certainly persecution happened before then! Hitler didn't just pop up out of nowhere!

What "announcement" are you talking about?

K. Let's see if anyone takes you seriously. You're basically a spam bot, you spam nonsense and ignore all replies.

Remember when you posted evidence for me? That was funny.

HAHA. Then put forth your scientific theory on creationism. I'll wait.

Why are we arguing? There was no announcement. That's my point.

Did you look at my link to Wikipedia? On that same year, Einstein had his property confiscated, his books burned and was banned from teaching in German universities. He didn't need to have someone say "Now this is officially a holocaust!" He avoided it before he would be caught in it.

Maz, the reason no one is talking about "junk" dna is because no one cares. It's not an issue. You're making it into one, for some reason. Probably because, as has been demonstrated, you don't really understand any of this stuff so you cling to the one thing that you like to spam the most. You're making a strawman out of nothing, and claiming "victory" because no one cares about your strawman.

Hey, again, remember when you misunderstood the chromosome 2 issue so badly that you posted evidence for me? That was funny.

You clearly think that the Holocaust is defined by official events only. Personally, I don't and since I was talking about events that predated your official definition, I only address them in the same predictive fashion that Einstein would have.

Let's not waste time on this. It's not what the debate is about.

<quoted text> Actually creationism can make predictions and is testable because Genesis gives me a story to falsify or support whilst TOE is virtually unfalsifiable. eg junk dna, vestigial organs, the revolving door of human ancesotrs, the death of single celled LUCA.

The truth is that evolution is very easy to falsify but no one had done it in 150 years. Must suck to be a creationist.

Lets look a Genesis for falsifiable concepts.

1. Earth created in 6 days including all life forms.
SCIENCE SAYS.... FALSE. The universe is nearly 14 billion years old [per physics, astronomy, cosmology].

2. All life forms created in a few days.
SCIENCE SAYS..... FALSE! Different forms of life have come and gone over 3.8 billion years.[per Geology, anthropology, paleontology, genetics, biology, evolution,...]

3. Humans were created on one day in fully modern form (presumably).
SCIENCE SAYS..... FALSE!!! There have been a range of hominids ranging from modern humans back through a Lucy like ancestor and beyond.[paleontology, paleobiology, anthropology, genetics,.....]

I can go on, but I don't need to, do I? Creationism is falsified.
