Would you agree to meet with the amazing Randy??

It's "Randi", not that accuracy interests you.

Since you are the one making supernatural claims, a category of claims
Randi considers unproven and to which his challenge is extended,
shouldn't you be the one meeting with him? In his own words:

"Randi comments: Creationism = Crackpot Science = Intelligent Design.
And don't you forget it."

"Evolution is a theory which has a huge amount of evidence to support
it. A massive amount of evidence; Darwin's books alone have a huge
amount of evidence in them and every year that goes by we add more to
that database. On the other hand, Intelligent Design has NO theory, it
has NO evidence. It's not a science, by definition its not a science
so it should be taught as part of Religious Studies, I thoroughly
agree with that, along with Voodoo and Casting of Runes and Ouija
Boards and such like. That should all be taught as part of Religious
or Supernatural Studies, yes, but as part of that kind of study, not
as a science, it is NOT a science."

" At JREF, we offer a one-million-dollar prize to anyone who can show,
under proper observing conditions, evidence of any paranormal,
supernatural, or occult power or event."

But thank you anyway. Watching a creationist invoking James Randi
provides even more insight into your intellectual shallowness and
dishonesty.

Can your Harvard trained PhD with extensive peer reviewed publications
(400 he says), over at University of Arizona enter your contest. He's
the firm believer in intelligent evolution, G.O.D. as I recall, and
conducts all sorts of psychokinetic, paranormal, extrasensory
experiments there at U of A.

He's your guy, an evo, and wrote a lot of books as well for your
consumption like the God Experiments. He is certainly no
fundamentalist or Christian or IDer.

Aren't you proud of him....let him get that million.



WTF are you talking about?
