[This post is long because Nyikos claims no documentation, so I give
it to him.]
Well, what is going to be your argument now that you know that the
bait and switch scam has been going down for over 9 years, and that
you were so wrong about that, that anything that you could claim would
be laughable?
This should be interesting, but likely just more lies and running.

This might be one out for you, but you request the responses and
demand the evidence, but when you get it you run. That obviously is
not something that you can deny doing, and obviously does not apply to
this excuse.
You do a lot of demanding, but in all your lies and prevarications
over the last 9 months, when have you ever supported your side with
evidence? Where is your evidence that the ID perps never ran the
teach ID scam? Where is your evidence that they are not still
claiming to be able to teach the bogus ID science? All that you have
been faced with or have ever dealt with is the evidence that supports
my position, and you are the one calling someone else insane.

You know what the argument was, but you lied to yourself about it.
You took a stupid quote out of context in order to make the dishonest
ploy believable. When confronted by the evidence you ran, and even
lied about me not making a direct rebuttal to the bogus post. That is
the reality of the events. You even went back and tried to rebut my
rebuttal, but all you got through was the first paragraph of the
rebuttal portion with a single sentence from the next paragraph, and
when you got to the evidence part you snipped and ran away again. How
sad is that?
Nyikos trying to rebut the rebuttal:
http://groups.google.com/group/talk.origins/msg/af78317b2f7e9f8c?hl=en
You can't really tell because Nyikos cuts up the material so much, but
he is only addressing one paragraph.
This is the intact paragraph:
QUOTE:
It isn't so much as proving anything, but acknowledging reality.
Nyikos did admit that ID was just a scam and that there was no ID
science ready to teach in the public schools. It is a no brainer
that
the ID perps ran the teach ID scam for years before they ran the bait
and switch and that they are still running the teach ID scam, they
just claim that they never wanted ID mandated to be taught. Those
are
facts that Nyikos can't deny, well, he has tried to lie about it for
months, but that is Nyikos. Really, no one not even the ID perps
deny
that they ran the teach ID scam. Nyikos has never put up a denial by
the ID perps because they are still claiming to be able to teach the
bogus junk in the public schools.
END QUOTE:
What Nyikos Snipped out and ran from:
Extended QUOTE:
So Nyikos has acknowledged that the ID perps were lying about having
the ID science to teach in the public schools. That lie is the main
reason that they have had to run a stupid bait and switch scam on
their own IDiot support base. If they had the ID science ready to
teach, why would they only give the rubes a switch scam that doesn't
even mention that ID ever existed. Where is the scientific theory of
intelligent design that they claim to have when they need the ID
science to teach?
These are the current claims of the ID perps:
QUOTE:
Although Discovery Institute does not advocate requiring the teaching
of intelligent design in public schools, it does believe there is
nothing unconstitutional about voluntarily discussing the scientific
theory of design in the classroom. In addition, the Institute opposes
efforts to persecute individual teachers who may wish to discuss the
scientific debate over design in an objective and pedagogically
appropriate manner.
END QUOTE:

The above quote is from the ID perps official stance on teaching the
junk in the public schools. Nyikos keeps snipping out this quote and
denying what it says, but he can't bring himself to specifically
address this quote for some reason. It is as if Nyikos has some
limit
to the lies that he thinks that he can get away with.
QUOTE:
Has ID Been Banned from Public Schools?
No. Science teachers have the right to teach science.
Since ID is a legitimate scientific theory, it should be
constitutional to discuss in science classrooms
and it should not be banned from schools. If a
science teacher wants to voluntarily discuss ID,
she should have the academic freedom to do so.

This is the quote that Nyikos keeps trying to prevaricate about even

Other evidence that Nyikos has been given one of the posts that
Nyikos
is currently using this thread to run from.
http://groups.google.com/group/talk.origins/msg/75f4c1af25c978cf?hl=en&
He has gotten other evidence over the months such as the Wedge
document, and material about the Ohio bait and switch scam. The ID
perps do not deny selling the IDiot rubes the teach ID scam, so why
should Nyikos make the denial for them? Heck, they are still telling
the rubes that they can teach the junk.

Inadequate means that he has snipped and run from the evidence, just
run from the evidence, lied about the evidence in any way that he
could, but the evidence still exists and he has to lie or go into his
hair splitting nonsense to deny something that even the ID scam
artists do not deny doing. That is how sad Nyikos is. What did I
tell you about having to choose between two lies. Right now, Nyikos
is lying about not understanding the teach ID scam. He is not
denying
that he has admitted that there was no legitimate ID science ready to
teach in the public schools.

Again no denial that he has claimed that there is no ID science ready
to teach. Only this prevarication about that admission. Note that
the blatant lie about not getting the evidence is gone from these
prevarications because anyone can look up how Nyikos got caught in
such lies in the links that I provided. So what exactly is Nyikos
trying to accomplish with this line of argument? He doesn't say. He
only prevaricates.
Nyikos admits that the ID science that the ID perps were peddling was
too bogus to teach in the public schools. Even though he does not
state that specifically, that seems to be what he wants people to
understand even if he can't bring himself to state it again. He only
prevaricates about not being convinced by the evidence that the ID
perps ran the teach ID scam.

Prevarication like this is all that Nyikos can do. It isn't just
this
quote even though it specifically states that ID has not been banned
from the public schools. Lying about this quote is all that Nyikos
can do. You don't see the same denial about the ID perp's official
stance on teaching the junk. Why does Nyikos think that he can lie
about this quote and ignore the other evidence? Doesn't the other
evidence make any prevarication about this quote senseless?
Really, can anyone find where the ID perps deny running the teach ID
scam? Nyikos lived through TO at the time that the ID perps were
running the teach ID scam full tilt back at the turn of the century.
Where did the IDiot rubes get the idea that they could teach the
bogus
junk?

with this very lie and then gets the links and evidence given back in
April, linked back to, but snipped out by Nyikos and given at least
once again. This is such a lame lie, but it is all Nyikos can think
of to do.

It isn't the ONLY documentation. Why lie like this. You have gotten
other evidence multiple times about the ID perps selling the rubes
that they had the ID science to teach in the public schools before
the
bait and switch went down. That shouldn't even be needed because the
ID perps do not deny selling the rubes the ID scam. They only claim
that they never wanted it mandated to be taught. From the first time
that I put up this quote I claimed that it was only evidence that the
ID perps were still claiming to be able to teach the bogus ID scam
junk. I have even put up their current claims on their official web
site with the same claim.

The sad thing is that Nyikos is currently running from his bogus
deeds
involving this quote. It is a classic case of quote mining. In a
standard rhetorical device Camp put up the negative argument and then
destroyed it. Nyikos has to just put up the negative argument and
snip out the rest of the quote in order to claim that Camp supported
his position when Camp actually claimed that ID was a scam from the
very beginning and that the ID perps purposely ran it that way. You
can't make this junk up. In Nyikos you have met someone bogus enough
to do such a stupid and dishonest manipulation of a quote. I can't
recall another creationist cretin that tried such a bogus and
dishonest ploy. It is stupid in that all anyone has to do is to go
up
one post and see how Nyikos manipulated the quote to understand how
bogus he is. Usually the creationist cretin does the dirty deed in a
book or article where the source can't be checked out immediately.

As I said above this just means that Nyikos has come to his limit
about lying about a quote and can't figure out a way to manipulate
the
quote or prevaricate about it that meets with his limit for lying.
He
knows that this quote means, but has to lie to himself about it, but
in this case can't bring himself to openly lie about it in a public
post. Considering how bogus Nyikos has been over the last 9 months
this should tell anyone that Nyikos understands what this quote
means.
The ID perps are still selling the IDiot rubes that they have the
science of ID to teach in the public schools. They have run the bait
and switch on every single IDiot rube that has popped up and claimed
to want to teach the bogus ID science since Ohio in 2002. Not a
single IDiot rube has ever gotten the ID science to teach from the
scam artists in the last 9 years. The only IDiots left that support
the bogus ID scam are the ignorant, incompetent and or dishonest, and
Nyikos is all three rolled into one. The ID perps sell the rubes one
thing and only give them the booby prize. That is the classic bait
and switch scam, and Nyikos has been lying about it for months.
Starting new threads like this will not change reality, and does not
make all the posts that Nyikos is running from go away.

You have to lie about the ID perps and the teach ID scam. You admit
that it was a scam because you admit that there never was any ID
science worth teaching. Really, what is your point now that you know
that the ID perps definitely ran the teach ID scam? You knew it was a
scam, you just could not admit it for some stupid reason. You lied
about it for months, but where has it gotten you? Can you continue to
lie about it? You know what I meant, but you had to take the quote
out of context and make some big deal about it, that now is no longer
relevant because you know that the bait and switch has been going down
for over 9 years.
Can you keep denying that? So what is the point about prevaricating
about this stupid point, when you never had the argument to begin
with? Did I really lie? What was the quote about in context? What
were you denying? What was the point of the statement, and wasn't it
true? You know for a fact that the reality is that it was a true
statement. You only were lying and prevaricating about that point.
Look at the official statement by the Discovery Institute on teaching
the bogus ID science that you got in July. You dithered about that
statement, but you knew what it meant. You eventually started to lie
about that statement claiming that I took it out of context, but where
is the context that you need? You claim that the ID perps have not
wanted to teach the bogus junk in the public schools and that they do
not claim to have any ID science ready to teach, but all you can find
is them claiming to be talking about teaching the junk in the public
schools, and claiming that ID is a scientific theory that can be
taught.
Wasn't the quote dead on in context? You either lie about ID not
being ready to teach or you lie about the ID perps claiming to be able
to teach the bogus junk. What kind of choice is that?

I just put up all the rebuttal that you snipped out and lied about not
getting. Are you going to snip it out again and lie about that?
Since you only addressed one paragraph and a single follow on sentence
from the next paragraph and then snipped out all the rest, we can all
see who the liar is. That was even after your lie about not getting
the rebuttal. Before that you snipped out all of the rebuttal portion
of the post.

Projection is a sign of insanity. There was no wrong doing on my
part. The bogus pretender was obviously yourself. So are you
admitting that this is how you deal with your problems at home? How
sad is that? You get caught red handed and this is what you do?
Doesn't this mean that you are worse off than the bogus liar that I
make you out to be?
Why not get back to the posts that made you start the insane logic
thread? If you had I probably wouldn't have had to put up the
additional evidence that you can't deny in this thread. The evidence
from April would have likely been enough for any sensible person.
What is not equivalent evidence where the April evidence contained
citation for a book by Meyer and DeWolf on the same subject of
incorporating intelligent design in public school education?
Shouldn't you have faced that evidence instead of running from it
multiple times and then lying about never getting it?

Projection is a sign of insanity. I have done no such thing. You, on

This is crazy. This is where Nyikos is claiming that I am running a
misdirection ploy? I am accusing him of leaving in the material, but
making some stupid statement that doesn’t address the material and
then running. That is one type of misdirection ploy, but anyone can
read the thread and see that it is true. That Nyikos did exactly
that. Did he address the material with his bogus verbage about not
snipping it out? Did I misrepresent what he did? No. He did not
address the material, he only made some inane comments about not
snipping it and ran. Why would anyone be proud enough of doing
something that bogus, link back to it? It didn’t occur to me that
Nyikos was claiming that I was misdirecting the argument. I just
thought that he was denying his own stupidity again.
This is my statement about what Nyikos did when he did it without all
Nyikos’ manipulations and deletions.

No, only when you snip and run. You have left this in, but have run
from it at the same time. You are misdirecting the argument because
you have no counter to the statement. That is also bogus and
dishonest. You would likely have been better off just snipping and
running like you usually do. You have to run because it is the
reason why Behe can equate astrology from the dark ages with
intelligent
design, because at that time they were equivalent and intelligent
design never advanced past that point.

Nyikos must be getting badly off. He is starting to spout Bible
verses again, and this is the guy that claimed that he wasn't a
creationist at the beginning of this whole farce.

All you have ever done is prevaricate about the issue. Demonstrate
that you ever put up any positive evidence for your position. Have
you ever demonstrated that the ID perps do not claim to be able to
teach the bogus junk? Have you ever been able to produce any evidence
that they never wanted to teach the junk in the public schools? All
you have ever done is nay say, and lie about the issues. When did you
ever put any light on the subject. You admitted to another poster
that you started the insane logic thread to make me look bad. What
was the purpose of the dirty debating thread and the misdirection
thread? What kind of light is that shedding on the topic? Hell fire
and damnation seem to be your light source.

What inference? Put up the quote that you are talking about and
demonstrate that I am wrong. That should have been easy enough for
you to do, but you have never done it. Find the context in the
official statement or the ID propaganda pamphlet that demonstrates
that I am wrong about what the quotes mean. Go for it. You should
have done that months ago.

Now, you can't deny that ID was the bait. So what is your position
going to be. Just demonstrating that the ID perps were still using ID
as the bait wasn't good enough for you. When you got the additional
evidence you ran for months. So what is your plan now? You know that
the ID perps are still using ID as the bait. Their bogus scam doesn't
make much sense for what they are trying to do with out the lame
junk. What about the Wedge document or their official mission
statement from 1998?

Run, so what? Reality will be the same tomorrow. You aren't like
Ray, you are more like Pagano. You start bogus threads with bogus
titles, and runs when you can't put up any type of decent argument.
You like and posture and then run and then you repeat the same lies
again in other posts. When are you going to try to support your
claims? Just lying about the junk isn't any type of support worth
jack, so put up the posts and demonstrate that what you claim is true.
