davidylan: How stoopid of you. You have nothing. So it is now impossible? Close minded fool You would have to prove that it is impossible since Dawkins has explained that we know life comes from life. We could have come from an even earlier life form. We dont know and are open to speculation that we came from extrterrestial life. What rational people dont do is believe it as fact because it is only a hyppothesis or educated guess. We dont lie that we can prove it. So, you have nothing as usual |

Logicboy03: The atheist is a funny individual. He wants me to prove that God exists and also wants me to prove that his illogical speculations on alternative ways life could have appeared on earth is also possible. So what burden of proof does the atheist take responsibility for? Dawkins didnt "explain" anything, he only speculated about a clearly irrational point of view that he would have roundly disparaged had God put it in His bible. Its funny how the atheist laughs at alleged "myths" in the bible while wrapping himself in uneducated hypothesis. Oh by the way directed panspermia is not an "educated guess"... it is the kind of fantasy that kids hooked on star wars dream about. |

Says a person who will later claim atheist are close minded. A scientist that supposedly understands how critical thinking works 1 percent..atheist prophets...bald men with hair cuts |

wiegraf: Says a person who will later claim atheist are close minded. A scientist that supposedly understands how critical thinking works I suppose you took a statistics course at least once in your life right... and you do know that a probability of 1 is NOT the same as 0.9 right? |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 7:09pm On Feb 02, 2013 |
davidylan: You made a claim and I said that you should prove it. Dawkins said that there is a possibility of another civilization who seeded life on earth. Could be aliens, could be something else. He was clearly making a speculation not claiming a fact. He explained his reasons for that speculation. You were trying to imply that it is ridiculous and impossible. If you cant back up your statement, then shut up. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 7:21pm On Feb 02, 2013 |
Logicboy03: the fact that he would even make such a patently ridiculous speculation is the problem... particularly if you are busy howling at others believing in myths. Like i always say, it takes more faith to believe in the sort of myths Dawkins wallows in than to simply believe in God. Oh and just to add... where did Dawkins "explain his reasons" for directed panspermia? What was his point? That somehow if we build bigger rockets we can find the life that seeded the earth on one of millions of galaxies out there? Both of u are unserious. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 7:32pm On Feb 02, 2013 |
davidylan: Why are you playing stoopid? We know current life comes from other lifeforms. Why is it then ridiculous to speculate that past life forms on earth could have come from other life forms outside earth but in our universe? Afterall, the origin of earth is from the expansion of space itself. So why is it a ridiculous speculaition? Why is it so impossible? Yet, it is not ridiculous for people to believe that a being (God) who is spaceless and timeless, exists. The very nature of matter, space and time define existence. You are stoopid and a disgusting disgrace to rational people and the field of science that you claim t be a part of. Fool |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by wiegraf: 7:51pm On Feb 02, 2013 |
davidylan: Aaaaannnnddddd how does that detract from my point? Doesn't that actually help your case? And you also notice how everyone else has been using 1 rather 0.1, hmm? Maybe even you yourself, if I bother to check. |

Logicboy03:yeah,right i believe in panspermia being able to seed earth with life just the way i believe that aliens on mars are seeding torrents on piratebay..panspermia is essentially a "pink unicorn" theory... Panspermia is bs,deal with it...smh |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 10:51pm On Feb 02, 2013 |
Creatrixity: Another fool that can not tell the difference between a hypothesis and a fact. Every hypothesis is BS until proven true. |

^^ you don't strike me as an intelligent person..how can you support such stupidity in a debate?smh for you.. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 12:10am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Creatrixity: ^^ you don't strike me as an intelligent person..how can you support such stupidity in a debate?smh for you.. What is stoopid about what or Dawkins said? You dont even understand what we are talking about and you just barged in |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Creatrixity(m): 12:21am On Feb 03, 2013 |
^^what is stupid?hear yourself logicboy..here are possible scenarios for the origin of life according to panspermia.. Apparently the originators of the panspermia theory got confused..so next time before you get all worked up and post insupportable stupidity...think!! 2 Likes |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 12:31am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Creatrixity: ^^what is stupid?hear yourself logicboy..here are possible scenarios for the origin of life according to panspermia.. Did you once hear the word panspermia theory from my mouth or Dawkins? Did you hear mars from any of our statements? See the strawman this fool is bringing up? |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 12:33am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Sorry for the abuse but it is highly irritating when people who have a serious ignorance come in and accuse you of something when they dont even know what they are talking about. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Enigma(m): 12:38am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Creatrixity: ^^what is stupid?hear yourself logicboy..here are possible scenarios for the origin of life according to panspermia.. And Dawkins' case is worse ---- he was not just insinuating panspermia; he was insinuating directed panspermia. When he was subjected to ridicule, he made a disingenuous self-rebuttal that he was just "explaining" how directed panspermia might work. Yeah right, pull the other one. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Creatrixity(m): 12:41am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Logicboy,your above comments passes a lot of information about your iq levels.. Dawkins never mentioned panspermia for the fear of being ridiculed in the scientific community but you were sticking up for it almost as if it were fact.. that pisses me off! |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Enigma(m): 12:43am On Feb 03, 2013 |
^^ And Dawkins actually did mention 'directed panspermia' specifically in his self-rebuttal. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 12:43am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Enigma: Pansermia? God, these christians can lie! Was Dawkins talking about panspermia in the interview? |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Creatrixity(m): 12:45am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Where are the lies?i cant see any! |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Enigma(m): 12:46am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Hmmm In his own self-rebuttal, Dawkins said specifically that what he was talking about in the video of the OP was indeed directed panspermia. In any event, anyone truly knowledgeable about these things knows he was talking about directed panspermia --- even if he did not use those specific words. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 12:48am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Creatrixity: Logicboy,your above comments passes a lot of information about your iq levels.. See the fool? You now admit that dawkins never mentioned panspermia in the interview. No scientist will tell you that panspermia is a fact. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 12:52am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Enigma: Hmmm I would like to know what panspermia has to do with a civilization that has a higher intelligence as Dawkins proposed in the video. You people lie and try in very desperate ways to assassinate Dawkins's character. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Enigma(m): 12:54am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Just like Dawkins himself lied and assassinated his own character when he admitted that what he was talking about in that video was indeed --- directed panspermia. Nice. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Creatrixity(m): 12:58am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Logicboy03:Breathe..then read my statement again,especially the part where I stated the reason Dawkins did not mention panspermia.. And by the way ,you can go read your "alien civilization where the gods of primitive people bullcrap" now.. You are too emotional,damn,you would have made a good fundamentalist! |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Enigma(m): 1:01am On Feb 03, 2013 |
^^^ Re the 'good fundamentalist' part; well, there are now fundagelical atheists too . . . . . |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 1:02am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Creatrixity: Go home and be a family man....... You have nothing...... |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Creatrixity(m): 1:05am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Dawkins did not mention panspermia but he did imply it !here: "It could be that at some earlier time somewhere in the universe a civilization evolved by probably some kind of Darwinian means to a very very high level of technology and designed a form of life that they seeded onto perhaps this planet." If this aint panspermia i don't know what it is..come and defend your pope logicboy! |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Enigma(m): 1:06am On Feb 03, 2013 |
^^^ And as I keep saying, Dawkins himself confirmed specifically that he was talking about erm ----- directed panspermia. 1 Like |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Nobody: 1:08am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Creatrixity: Dawkins did not mention panspermia but he did imply it !here: Take note of the bold and then go and read the panspermia hypothesis. Panspermia Theory suggests that life seeds came from outer space and planets exchanged life. Panspermia literally means seeds everywhere. Panspermia (Greek: πανσπερμία from πᾶς/πᾶν (pas/pan) "all" and σπέρμα (sperma) "seed" is the hypothesis that life exists throughout the Universe, distributed by meteoroids, asteroids and planetoids.[1] See how stoopid some people are? Everyone can see how Dawkins was talking about a different origin of life than panspermia. |
Re: An Interview Of Richard Dawkins By Ben Stein by Enigma(m): 1:10am On Feb 03, 2013 |
Hmmm Once again, Dawkins himself said (or admitted) specifically that he was talking about erm ---- directed panspermia. 1 Like |
