Terrible news for the Creation Science museum (and Republicans)

"When I found one he wouldn’t be reputatable so lol."

True statement. For the same reason you can't find a reputable plumber who doesn't believe in plumbing.

I would not hire a plumber who thinks the pipes in my house evolved.......

Asshole; the "a" is the body's acceleration due to gravity. Gravity is a constant, dipshit. It only varies if you go off planet to another body.

Did you think the "a" stood for "annoying psycho job"?

There is no acceleration or 'a' in Newton's law of gravitation.

So you should have just admitted you do not understand rudimentary algebra from the start instead of wasting my time.


"Newton’s three laws of physics are the basis for mechanics."
https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-physics/chapter/newtons-laws/

"Newton's laws of motion = three laws of mechanics describing the motion of a body"
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/newton-s-laws-of-motion

Irrelevant. Strawman fallacy. Pivot fallacy. Newton's law of gravitation is not F=ma.

Right wing blogs do not count as scientific publications.

Clearly you were not reading Scientific American, Smithsonian, or National Geographic.


Obviously, and this is best exemplified by 70 million people voting for the worst president in U.S. history.

There is no such thing as a 'scientific' publication. Science isn't a magazine, book, pamphlet, or web site.
Science is a set of falsifiable theories.

 

[Into the Night]

It does not sound like you were reading any reputable and legitimate scientific literature.

If you had been reading National Geographic, Scientific American, et al. you would not have made the statement that the evidence for evolution is so weak and tenuous it would likely not stand up even in a civil court of law.

There is no such thing as 'scientific' literature. Science is not a book, pamphlet, web site, or magazine.
Science is not a law court.
The Theory of Evolution is not a theory of science.

I think INT would call that the No True Scotsman Fallacy lol.

Not quite. It's actually a series of false authority fallacies.

Scientific consensus is a two dollar term for herd mentality and group think. What was the consensus on the lab origin theory theory two months ago?

Quite right. Consensus is not used in science. It is only used in religions and government.

 

[Into the Night]

You rely on experts

Define 'expert'.

and consensus

Consensus is not used in science. It is only used in religions and government.

expert professional judgement

Define 'professional judgement'.

in your life on a daily basis.

Buzzword fallacies. 'Expert' worship.

From the medical doctor you see,

Medical practice isn't science. Science is a set of falsifiable theories. Stitching up a wound is not science. It is technique.

to the civil engineer-designed roads you drive on.

Engineering is not science. I build my own roads as well and even drive on them.

Let me know when you feel comfortable driving on a bridge designed by nurses.

Engineering is not science.

You implied that the theory of evolution was so weak it would not even stand up in civil court.

The Theory of Evolution is not a theory of science. It is a religion.

Can you name a handful of reputable research molecular biologists, geneticists, and paleontologists who think it is more than 50 percent likely that the basic outline of evolutionary theory is dead wrong?

You don't get to speak for everyone. You are not God. Omniscience fallacy (bigotry). It is not possible to prove the Theory of Evolution either True nor False. It is not a theory of science either. It is a religion.

 

[Into the Night]

Defining it and evidence.

When you make up a concept from whole cloth, like God, you either make a specific claim or a general one about it's traits.
For religions which make clear decisive definitions of what their god is, there is either no evidence or it is an object that already exists in nature, or even all of it. If you define it as an amorphous gloss over all natural creation you are simply assuming its existence.

Religions use supporting evidence. For Christianity, the Bible itself is evidence. So is nature itself.

The Church of No God is no different than any other religion, except for the number of fundamentalists in it.

In any case you can't get out of the blocks with a logical and rational argument with these suckers.

A circular argument (which all religions are based upon) is not in and of itself illogical or irrational. It is simply a circular argument. It is not a fallacy. The other word for the the circular argument is 'faith'.
The attempt to prove a circular argument either true or false is the circular argument fallacy. This is what a fundamentalist does.

 

[Into the Night]

I accept your tacit confession that you cannot cite a list of reputable research biologists, or provide a body of peer reviewed research to support your claims that the basic outlines of evolutionary theory is dead wrong.

You don't get to put words in people's mouths.

He doesn't need to prove the Theory of Evolution is wrong, nor is it possible. It simply isn't a theory of science. It is a religion.

Irrelevant. Strawman fallacy. Pivot fallacy. Newton's law of gravitation is not F=ma.

You should have just confessed you are not familiar with rudimentary algebra. Newton's equations and terms can be rearranged to derive acceleration in accordance with 8th grade algebra skills.

F = ma = GmM / R squared

With "a" being the centripetal acceleration due to the force of gravity.
Velocity can be derived from acceleration.

What do you recommend for people in their fifties who have forgotten their algebra? As for me I'll just trust you on it.
I never need it, to be honest.

I think most people frequently do algebra in our heads without even realizing it.

Math error. Unit error.

Try deriving it.

F = m₁a = Gm₁m₂/r²
