Evolution [Debate Proposal]

Muslim said:
you COCKS HAVE GOT ME BANNED FROM THERE. this is a conspiracy the admins an atheist thats why she banned me I was too good for you. all the atheists lose.
Aaand Muslim loses again. This time he can never, ever win again because he has claimed there is a "conspiracy" against him.
 
I suck at math. I did an IQ test I scored above average with a score of 115. My strongest point was General Knowledge, my weakest point was mathematics. Now I know why I never liked it, and why I liked science and history more then anything.

So what? Well, it sorta renders you unable to tell people to learn how to spell, especially people who make fewer and more minor mistakes than you.

Again, muslim - post an argument, or post out.

I've had a few online IQ tests, and I generally fall between 120-150 overall, my higher scores being untimed ones.

As for evolution, you fail to grasp some of the most simple and provable aspects of it. Natural selection is a proven process, take the bacteria argument. Can you seriously deny that the weak are less likely to survive then the strong? And the brick analogy you used is wrong. Lets say we have 100 piles of bricks, 3 apeice. A storm comes and blows 50 over the edge of a cliff. The lightning hits the pile that happened to be in the highest location. Next day, a car runs into the twenty ones on the road, and they are picked up and thrown away. the twenty with cracks in their bricks eventually crumble. Eight of them were in poor arrangments and fall apart. So, the only pile left is the one far away from the edge of the cliff, has no cracks, isn't on the road, isn't high up, and is well arranged. That is like one iteration of the evolution process. The liklyhood of the pile being like that is 1/100, and if you repeat over and over again, you get more and more unlikely, but more and more strong. That is the most basic premise, not

"If the identical scientist were to discover 3 bricks resting on top of one another while walking along a flat road, he would never suppose that these bricks had come together by probability and subsequently climbed up on top of each other, again by probability. Certainly, anybody who did make such a declaration would be considered insane."

as you said.

I want a debate with one person from the forum arguing evolution is not a myth. And I will be arguing against evolution and showing the many discrepancies within it.

The debate parameters are as follows:

1. Only two people will participate in the debate all other posts will be ignored.

2. The debate will be for 3 rounds.

3. Posts will be made in turns, we will agree on who makes the initial post.

4. The maximum length of each statement, will be 3000 words or less.

5. The time limit between statements is 3 days.

6. quotes and references from outside sources should be marked clearly


To elaborate:

The maximum length of each statement:
The word "quote:" that appears automatically when using VBB coding to quote material is not counted in the total word count. The use of numbers, symbols, and quoting an opponent's words is counted. Formal debate statements must also be of an abundance that is reasonably acceptable. For example, statements consisting solely of the words "Why?" or "Who says?" will be declined. Images can also be used as long as the amount and size used is not excessive or a means to get around word limits.


The time limit between statements:
Debate participants are expected to respond within a particular time frame. For example, if the time limit chosen is a week, then a debater is expected to reply within a week of his or her opponent’s last statement. For debates that are concurrent, debaters are expected to submit their statements within the time limit from the date of the last statement of the previous round. Time limits do not work by means of a fixed calendar. As long as it's within the time limit, debaters can post statements any time they wish to -- even if it's a within a few hours after his/her opponent's statement.

If anyone is up for the challenge then let me know in this thread.


I accept with the following conditions because I don't trust you:

1) The 'debate' occurs in this thread.
2) If either of us plagiarises material, we agree to be banned from SciForums.
3) A poll will be issued to determine the winner.

I would be willing to put a monetary wager (say $500 USD) on the outcome and let me know if you would like to put your money on the line (you are confident after all).

If you accept these terms, one committment I will make is I will dismantle and discredit poor logic and fantastic conclusions. Do it excessively and I will attack your personal abilities. If you are caught plagiarising, I will rip you a new one and will discredit you personally on these forums.
 
I believe you will be hard-pushed to get a reply to this from Muslim. He is still trying to work out which direction to face to Pray to Allah for guidance over the previous replys.

I protest. Muslim has already discredited himself personally on these forums by the tenor, content and quality of his posts. If you then seek to do the same thing it may well be it is you who can be accused of plagiarising Muslim's own conclusions and effort. ;)
