Defender of Intelligent Design not so intelligent
I wrote a long screed refuting Thompson point by point in a vitriolic manner, but I scrapped it in order to respond to this single quote: 'Did you see me show that there's no scientific evidence for man coming from an ape?'
In his unadulterated megalomania, Thompson reveals his true self. He's so infatuated with himself that he can't even get the facts right about his own refutation. Wow. Man didn't 'come from' apes, and if he were a real scientist, he would know that. Not only has he failed to refute 100 million scientists, he can't even get the question right. Perhaps, one day in the future, when South Korea has produced a cure for Alzheimer's using embryonic stem cells, and a huge outpouring of US capital goes overseas instead of into our own economy, will Thompson ponder our true 'floundering society'. I doubt it. I assume he won't be in line to get the cure, because that would be 'moral relativism'.
