That's okay, it's not important anyway.

No. I am guessing that everyone here (yourself included, if you were to answer honestly) knows that what I am saying is that you are putting words into the mouths of scientists, words which they themselves have not uttered. You are then able to say "how foolish those words are!" as if you are saying something important.

You're right, I have nothing to say.

You are correct in one thing--the words you are reacting to are illogical. Trouble is...they are your words, and yours alone.

Go ahead, believe what you want to believe.

LOL...if there were anything to it, it would be among the most important topics ever! This is why I do not simply dismiss it, but examine it critically.

How you got this from my statement, I do not know. My complaint was simply that you are putting words in scientists' mouths that they would not have said, then arguing against those. Having "nothing to say" would be another thing entirely.

Or...you could actually show me the scientists who are making the claims you say they are making. Are you giving up because you are sick of the arguing, or because the words you say are theirs cannot be found? It should be a very simple thing to find...
