Who's reading ProfessorChronotice (3):
Evolution churned its kettle for 150 million years and turned out some pretty amazing monsters. Not one of them had a laptop or could balance a checkbook. Then along came a catastrophic encounter with a big friggen rock and wiped the slate pretty clean. Then in 64 million years or so Evolution created more monsters this time hairy and smelly until something else happened and they were gone.

Then Evolution in a million years or so created monkeys with laptops and checkbooks. Do you really think it reached the pinnacle of its efforts in one million years when the previous attempts took 150 and 65?

Mankind is a blip on the radar, a mistake, a wisp of vapor that will be gone when the sun rises. We are not the endgame of Evolution we are a highly unlikely error, caused by a very unique set of circumstances that just happened to appear for a short while in East Africa. All Evolution ever did was make big stupid and hungry monsters. When we finally send a probe to the nearest life-bearing planet, it will be eaten.

Evolution makes monsters and sometimes in a very few wildly improbable instances it makes a mistake. If the universe is teeming with as much life as the statisticians would have me believe, I’m really very glad they are much too far away.

    You need to report back to your unit. This sort of interaction is prohibited. You must erase this post.

    I think you're long due for a mental oil change.
    You realize of course that you are included in that near sighted evaluation?

    Dear PC, how interesting that your initials are politically correct. You can stop this train of thought right now. As you have previously voiced your consern that most people on here are idiots because their IQs are below 140, I assume that yours is higher (or do you only gues?). So for a smart man as yourself, a mathematical answer should suffice. here goes on the topic of evolution. this is from a book by James F. Coppedge called Evolution: Possible or Impossible? It includes some fascinating examples of the statistical improbability of evolution. I present an example. Consider first this statement from the evolutionist George Wald writing on The Origin of Life in the Scientific American (1954):

    "Time is in fact the hero of the plot. The time with which we have to deal is of the order of two billion years. What we regard as impossible on the basis of human experience is meaningless there. Given so much time, the 'impossible' becomes possible; the possible probable, and the probable virtually certain. One has only to wait; time itself performs the miracles."

    Now using Coppedge's figures, let's take a look at the time it would take for one simple gene to arrange itself by chance. This is necessary for evolution to happen or for life to have started in this way. Remember, natural selection cannot operate until a self-replicating system is produced. Of course, this gene by itself is still only a dead molecule in the absence of other genes and other complex chemicals all perfectly arranged in time and space. Nevertheless, let us use as many sets as there are atoms in the universe. Let us give chance the unbelievable number of attempts of eight trillion tries per second in each set! At this speed on average it would take l0147 years to obtain just one stable gene. What does this number really mean? Let's look at Coppedge's example; assume we have an amoeba—and let's assume that this little creature is given the task of carrying matter, one atom at a time from one edge of the universe to the other (though to be about thirty billion light years in diameter). Let's further assume that this amoeba moves at the incredible slow pace of one Angstrom until (about the diameter of a hydrogen atom) every fifteen billion years (this is the assumed age of the universe assigned by many evolutionists). How much matter could this amoeba carry in this time calculated to arrange just one usable gene by chance? The answer is that he would be able to carry 2 x 1021 complete universes!

    This means that all the people living on earth, man, woman and child, counting day and night, would be counting for five thousand years just to count the number of entire universes which this amoeba would have transported across a distance of thirty billion light years, one atom at a time.

    Perhaps you should consider thinking about something that is mathematically more probable than waste your time on evolution. Why don't you ponder what will happen if a carrot is ever dropped from the air by a flying monkey, lands perfectly on its end, and stays that way.

    Mr. thenack,
    Your circular logic is flawed. It displays a complete lack of understanding of the basics of probability.

    If an event has a probability of one in ten billion, it does not mean that ten billion opportunities must pass before the one can reveal itself. It has just as much chance to be presented in the next available opportunity and it has for any other amoung the ten billion.

    You should really brush up on your math skils before you attempt to talk with grown-ups.

    Mr. Saladine,
    You ARE a monkey

    TheNakedProfessor is a coward for banning my contributions to his childlike attempts at wisdom.

    LOL. I like the professor wars. PC, you are my kind of dude. Clearly we're mistakes; if we were intended by our creator (who/whatever that may be), we shouldn't be so actively destroying our basis of life (i.e. the environment).

    Saladine, most of us started as jews (christ was a jew), so your retarded anti-semitism should be stopped. go join hitler and kill your self.

    ProfC, So why don't you buy lotto tickets with all the money you have?

    GreenDischarge, you're obviously knowingly rebelious against your Creator, you're so cool!

    Saladine, OOh ook aaargh aaaa ook. Asshole

    Greendischarge- of course you were a mistake.No shit,your
    retarded mom should have never been left alone with your
    retarded uncle.Yes,a mistake that only a fall down a flight
    of stairs or a well placed kick in the stomach could of fixed.

    ProfessorChronotice-you seem to be another one of those
    computer freaks touching himself to kiddie porn in between playing games of doom, while wearing a starwars shirt and hopeing your mom doesn't come down to the basement with
    your bologne sandwich with the crust cut off and catch you with your pants around your knees.Freak.

    Saladine-Jew comments.Great, that's as creative as shuting up a pillow

    Come back ProfessorC!!!!!!!!!

    pete - fuckface PC kicks ass, you need to bow to him!!!!

    Saladman - Jews taste good!
