//Sith - “... lol birdie, opaque, unequivocal? If you dont know which one lol than forget it. adding big words isnt going to make you anymore clever...” //

its funny how you left out the part where i said it was a joke.

Naomi, look at the poll on this website. Like you and me, most of them ageree we did not evolve from apes, however clearly there are people that do.

Sith, we know some people believe that humans evolved from monkeys – there was never any doubt about that. What hasn't been established is why you think they have a rational point.

By the way, a monkey is not an ape.

[birdie1971]

Oh I see.

[sith123]

naomi, i do not think they have a rational point. If i did, i would not be a muslim. My personal point was that there are people who believed, when you clearly said there was not. You tried to say to me that what i was saying was false. Here is the proof it is not. thats all.

birdie, finally ;)

[naomi24]

Sith, do stop going around in circles. You’re meeting yourself coming back.

[birdie1971]

Sith -

To recap...

Sith [09:20 Wed 15th Feb 2012]- “... i know a lot of people who believe humans evolved from monkeys. Just because you [Naomi] do not doesnt mean its an irrational point...”

Sith [07:08 Wed 22nd Feb 2012] - “... i do not think they [people who believe that humans evolved from monkeys] have a rational point...”


You're making the mistake of forgetting that when you post an answer to AB, there's a record of what you have said. In the space of a week you've gone from believing that people who think that humans evolved from monkeys have a valid point to believing that they are irrational. That's quite a volte-face. If you can fundamentally change your opinion on this aspect of Evolution in one week, imagine what theological changes could occur if you stick around and perhaps read some Dawkins or Hitchens...

[sith123]

yes birdie. I was saying that i do not believe as i have already pointed out, however like everything to them it is a rational believe. So if i did believe that than i would think it is rational. Youre atheists, you thing that is rational, am i correct? So to everyone with a belief its going to be rational to them. I have explained this as clearly as i can and i cannot see the difficulty in understanding it, however of course you are struggling. so i have helped you as best as i can. of course what i am saying now is going to be "irrational" to you, but there you go. my point proven.

[naomi24]

Round and round .....

[birdie1971]

Sith - “... however of course you are struggling...”

I'm not struggling. It's pretty obvious what you are attempting (and failing) to do. You are desperately trying to extricate yourself from a quite embarrassing quagmire of your own making. Let us not forget that it is you who has contradicted yourself and you continue to do so. Now you are trying to make the claim that rationality means different things to different people... you even make the following absurd claim:

“... my point proven.”.

Oh dear. If you have proven anything, it is the lengths that you will go to to justify you own prejudices and contradictions.

[sith123]

birdie, you must be completely thick, excuse me for my language, i have said what i believe and what my point is. If you cannot figure it out that is your problem. Just dont do what you are saying im doing when i am not, and that is to keep making the other person look like a fool when it is you. My pointy is clear. if you cant figure out, then read it again.

this is simple to understand.

if you cannot, its your problem, not mine.

Round and round .....

[sith123]

round and round what naomi? if that was your attempt at a joke i hate to break it to you...its not funny.

[boxtops]

Time to close this thread, I think.

[sith123]

its already closed boxtops. in a sense. as you can see no one is talking about the subject any more

[emmie]

perhaps because it isn't going anywhere or as naomi says round and round

[sith123]

yes

[boxtops]

Stop posting on it then, sith, you're waking it up again :-)

[sith123]

lol, yeah, now officialy i am finished...on this thread :)

[naomi24]

Boxy, if Sith wants to post on any thread, he is free to - even if the rest of the contributors have decided to move on. ;o)

[boxtops]

Naomi, of course he is :-) - it's just going nowhere (as was identified several days ago!)
