Okimoto made a hot air claim that several creationists by name had
made his "anti science" list. He ingloriously listed links to posts
which he (apparently) thought representative of their indiscretions.
And he implied that every other creationist who failed to "sign on" to
the Clergy Letter was also anti science. As of yet this blow hard,
Okimoto, has yet to offer a single fact to prove that anyone is anti
science.

Three more days and Okimoto will be one of several cowardly runners in
the forum who sling bold ephithets out of derision and not reason.
This blow hard is goin' down.

Regards,
T Pagano


Harshman has never demonstrated this kind of behavior. Does he
condone it among other academics?

Harshman doesn't care what Okimoto does. But Harshman is very annoyed
that Pagano keeps ignoring a raft of substantive challenges to his
claims. But Harshman also supposes he can't expect much from Brave Sir Tony.

No, he didn't. You inferred incorrectly.

Look in the mirror lately?

Does it matter?

My prediction is that in 7 days Pags will run away from his bogus
challenge and never address why he started the bogus challenge in the
first place. Getting caught lying about something is no reason to
start a bogus challenge just to cover your own dishonest butt.

Here is the stupid lie that Pags is running from just so that he won't
forget.

Of course he had to start a whole thread to present the lie in the
first place. Why am I unable to do something when you are the liar?

Where is you proof of this, Tony? Have you seen the non-existence of
Okimoto's list? What is your evidence that it does not exist? It is
your claim that is hot air. What can you show to support your claim?

Creationists are anti-science. Science is a method and they continually say
that method is unreliable but an ancient book written by priests is the
"truth".

It's a fine point, really. I'm sure Suzanne is willing enough in
theory, but it seems to me that she only _thinks_ she isn't
anti-science: she certainly resists its findings whenever they clash
with the legends she likes. Another mind would also see the implicit
contradictions she's able to ignore.
