  Calling Cofty and others regarding evolution

  so i have started down the path of trying to understand evolution, and to get the linear lies that the jws planted in my head out of it.

  i bought an audiobook called "evolution: what the fossils say and why it matters" by donald prothero.

  i heard it recommended on an atheist podcast that i listened to.

  Evolutionary theory does explain the origin of thought. We all share a common ancestor and over time what we describe as 'thought' has evolved to what we see today

  Dude, if you think that is actually a scientific explanation for something I get why you don't think I know what science is.

  It's like saying: Physics today know what dark matter is. It is some kind of field or particle which interact with other particles and pull them around, and at the same time they are hard to see in a telescope. This is my very scientific explanation, nothing to see here.

  Ain't no scientific explanation...

  Origin of thought is an open problem in evolutionary theory. deal with it. I for one am happy to admit there are things I don't know & can learn about.

  The FISA Memo, To Release Or Not To Release

  by freemindfade in

  was the doj, nsa, and fbi weaponized?

  the biggest scandal of this era, or a false alarm by the gop?

  i am skeptical what will come of it, however, some very strong reactions and words are coming from its existence and those who read it, also the fight to keep it secret is telling (reminds me of any cult trying to prevent people from reading damaging information).

  This memo sure has the liberals running around scared. Funny how they are doing a 180 on transparency & investigation the moment it seems the investigation might actually be going somewhere!

  I still wonder: Anyone has an idea what might be in the memo?

  Cofty:

  You clearly have no interest in sincere conversation or the possibility of learning anything

  Dude it is like you are in my head, knowing my motives and shit!

  AFAIK everything I have posted on this thread has been factually true. If I wrote something false do tell, otherwise get over yourself & stop with all the "I know your motives better than yourself young man" preaching.

  I blame the internet where kids can watch a few YouTube videos and quickly check stuff on Wiki

  ..and the hippety hoppety music and the bumbum blasters and the way young ones today don't wear suspenders and premarital sex and how ppl no longer go to the barber on Saturdays and NTV and how a man can no longer feed his family for a month on a dollar...

  OFCOURSE you blame wikipedia, after all, you know better than wikipedia lol. Oh how I pine for the day I will attain your level of wisdom!

  @whatshallcallmyself: At the moment evolutionary theory does 'explain' the origin of thoughts in a satisfactory manner

  okay I am confused. you say evolution do explain the origin of thought; @Coded Logic say evolution should not explain the origin of thought and wikipedia treat it as an unsolved problem.

  Perhaps you too should write to wikipedia and provide your solution for how thought evolved?

  Hothead - All of your ranting and raving, your sophomoric insults and your ad hominem attacks in this thread could be summed up with - 'there is still a lot more to learn about biological evolution'

  Bravo Cofty! It is almost like you read my first post where I wrote exactly that and finally understood it! *clap* *clap* *clap*

  BTW sorry for triggering you into calling me names. Should I call you a name too bro? In that way, it may seem more normal that you are a middle-aged man calling ppl names on the internet over some stupid post you didn't understand lol.

  If you are ready to join the adults, do you think the evolution of human thought is a solved problem?

  @Coded Logic:

  I don't understand why you think evolution should explain the origin of thought.

  You don't think darwinism can/should explain the origin of thought?

  Before someone strawman me for the 117th time: I don't say evolution cannot explain thought in principle. I don't say thought proves evolution wrong. I say evolution RIGHT NOW don't explain the origin of thought well.

  And that ain't my opinion but the evolution of actual biologists who have done the hard work.

  (and now I bet someone will go: "herp-derp, that was never in dispute". In which case I ask: Why was my post controversial to begin with)

  @TD
  

  Similarly, organic evolution is not junk science simply because we are not yet able to unite related areas of inquiry under the same umbrella.

  I never said evolution is junk science, I believe in evolution FFS.

  Don't read what other assume about me but what I say. I said at the outset there was things we don't know about darwinism(=evolution) and things we knew.

  Then Cofty jumped on top of me and said darwinism wasn't a thing.

  Then I posted a link to wikipedia which said otherwise.

  Then cofty got ridiculous and said he knew better than wikipedia (yah that actually happened)

  Then he asked me what we didn't know about evolution.

  Then I wrote a list.

  Then cofty got even more silly and of it went from there and all of a sudden I am made into a creationist...
