Once again, Justicar (with the aid of the usual haters and rapists at ERV of course) is as sharp as a tack and picks up on some new nonsense in an already nonsensical piece of earlier slave wallowing from The Naked Emperor.
This is just so precious. When an actual geneticist pops into the baboon board, humbly and without fanfare or announcing he is such, and gets torn apart and branded a liar and a moron for his use of the term phenotype, it is funny –
Donkane is a cowardly liar. Feel free to come back and prove me wrong, Donkane. Yes of course, all those research grants. Busy busy now! And those BIG BIG words! “Phenotype,” golly, what a smart cookie you are!
When that geneticist is Dr Donald A. Kane and is also, by all accounts, one of the folks that has some kind of hand on the purse strings1 to much of the Baboon King’s funding, it becomes priceless.
What we see here, on display for all, is that Myers and his army of monkey-see-monkey-do morons not only are an absolute disgrace to atheism / secularism and, most outrageously “freethought” (by claiming that appellation as their own), they are also becoming even more of a disgrace to the scientific community.
It is high time the baboon board got some genuine scrutiny from academia. Science is fighting for its very life against a rising tide of anti-intellectualism and resurgent superstition. The last thing it needs is an imbecile horde – like the one that Myers has personally trained, unleashed on the world, and leads by example – to further erode its standing.
The Pharygudrones are here fully exposed for all to see – a slobbering, incoherent lunch lynch mob ruled by the groupthink of the pack. No logic, no reason, no structure, just tribal bloodlust. And the ability to pirouette their opinion in unison on a dime, like Nureyev, into a direct opposite view in an instant, as the Bachmann frankfurter episode clearly displayed – and still maintain they have intellectual integrity with a straight face.
A fucking disgrace. The lot of them. But especially the Naked One.

1 – This does require confirmation. But the fact that the Baboon King made a rare display of leashing and muzzling his minions indicates there is some kind of pecuniary risk. He certainly never does this out of ethical consideration.

I have no idea if he holds any sway monetarily over PZ et ass, but PZ let him get slammed nine ways to Sunday by the wikipedia scholars before finally saying something. So, I’m reasonably confident some kind of conversation took place.
While sneering at wikipedia, it’s worth noting that wikipedia’s definition seems to jive with that of experts in the field. But I’m sure they’re all wrong: the commentariat know better than all those pointy-headed geneticists know.

Footnoted – The Naked One’s intervention is never done on the grounds of ethical considerations. That leaves little else other than the pecuniary. It is worthy of further investigation though. It does however give Chumpy something else to froth about – “unfounded assumptions! How dare they! I never do that!”

So I see. So I see.
I just wanted to be on record since I am sure, like anything else I say, I’ll be misquoted and accused of something. =^_^=
It’s interesting that I’m he who can’t be named, but you get linked to. I think you’re just better for traffic than I am. But once I’m famous, they’ll talk about me*!
*by name.

Yeah, but my penis is prettier.
October 1, 2011 at 5:19 pm
Wait…penises can be prettier? I thought they could only be longer or thicker. Is there an all-natural internet pharmacy supplement for that?
October 2, 2011 at 12:02 am
Yeah, Skepchick calendars. Your penis will never be the same.
You consigned yourself to spam purgatory with your wording but.
October 2, 2011 at 3:32 am
I think many penises are gorgeous. I can look at some all day, photographs don’t do it for me though, it has to be in the same room. I’m easily distracted by a beautiful cock.
October 2, 2011 at 8:30 am
Here is one of the many differences between Becky and I.
If a man wrote that he can easily be distracted by gorgeous breasts, or a pretty pussy (ack! she said “pussy”) it would not even faze me.
This is what is not getting through to them
She wants it both ways. She wants the ability to be sexist anytime she wishes, (which I do not think is at all appropriate) or, like I have written above, the ability to appreciate the opposite sex, (or the same sex, if that is what you are attracted to), but men (straight men) are not given that courtesy in return.

LMFAO!… The monkey board is full of 19 year old acting wanna be experts telling off a geneticist actually in the know.
Good catch.
I wonder how many other experts make an intelligent post over there and then get slammed by the board’s idiots.
I bet it happens a lot.
October 1, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Oh that poor, poor monkey with the auto-loader…
Too, koodos to Justicar for more of his “shining lights” on the hypo-hypocrisy of Myers’ temple of syncophants
October 2, 2011 at 12:56 am
Shoot first, think later. It doesn’t get any more clear than this, and if such an overt display of idiocy doesn’t snap PZ out of his intellectual inebriation and into some form of skeptical sobriety, nothing will. I’ve spent enough time on xian (aka – the enemy) boards to recognize the instant aversion to the other that is so clearly on display in this case. More than a few times I’ve actually had to notify xian blog owners that one or another comment is agreeing with them, after they jump down the poor individual’s throat. The first glance tries to pick out the cheerleader outfit, second glance skims for key words; finding neither, they go into attack mode.
You’ve been spot on this whole time, they more closely resemble their religious counterparts than anything I would consider skeptical/freethinking/enlightened.

Pretty standard stuff over there these days. One of the things that finally pushed me to leave that site for good was a few weeks back when Myers posted a story about a guy who was profiled on an airplane, and summarily ejected by the airline. It was an outrageous miscarriage of justice, and Myers was right to draw attention to it.
The comments predictably condemned the airline’s action, and at one point a couple of posters identifying themselves as airline employees dropped in to offer their perspective. They began by joining everyone else in condemning the airline’s actions. I’d like to say that again, just for clarity: they prefaced their remarks by saying the airline was in the wrong. They were quite unequivocal in saying this.
They then offered some possible explanations for why the airline had acted the way it had. Not justifications, not excuses. Explanations, based upon their personal experience in working for an airline. In other words, they were contributing firsthand expertise to the discussion, in the hopes of shedding some light on why the incident had occurred. This is always a valuable contribution to any discussion, right? Especially on a site that values evidence-based argumentation and rational thinking. Right?
Er…wrong. These two posters were viciously attacked, told to “Fuck off” and worse. Why? You fuckin’ tell me. That site is no more than a disgraceful fucking mob.

Oh, and just a little side note, but I found this interesting: in this post over at Why Evolution Is True, Jerry writes about “my friend Miranda Hale, Gender Traitor and Known Enemy of the Catholic Church”.
Nice to see Dr. Coyne is on the right side of things. Are Myers’ friends abandoning him?
October 2, 2011 at 5:45 am
Jerry cracked me up last night over at Miranda’s place.
