LOL, I think that I am the one that is missing something. Because I fail to see how "glyphosate" resistant weeds is an arguement FOR evolution. I do not even know what glyphosate is so how can that be evidence for anything. Maybe for you it is evidence, for me it is just a word that I do not know the meaning of.

OK, John, you can say it: just kidding. No, really, it's OK to say it. John?...you are just kidding, right?
"LOL, I think that I am the one that is missing something."
Yes, intelligence.
"Maybe for you it is evidence, for me it is just a word that I do not know the meaning of."
Evolution is also just a word that you don't know the meaning of. Science is another one.
JohnR7: When I left you, I was but the learner. Now, I am the master.
FSTDT: Only a master of STUPID, John.
I wonder if he would accept the same argument:
"Hey John, I've never read the Bible so how can that be evidence for anything? Maybe for you it is evidence for God, but for me it is just a book that I never read."
Ah, JohnR7. If a more ignorant man exists, I sure as hell don't want to meet him.
Here's a pointer: if you don't know what something is, look it up. Simply denying it because you don't understand is making you look even stupider.
Mr Spak beat me in...
The penny drops with JohnR7.
LOL, I [don't] think that I am the one that is missing something because I fail to see how "scientific data" is an argument FOR evolution. I do not even know what scientific data is, so how can that be evidence for anything? Maybe for you it is evidence, for me it is just a phrase that I do not know the meaning of.
Sigh... (and yes I fixed his spelling syntax and punctuation a little too).
Couldn't touch the LOL though...
Just because an assertion has a term with which you are not familiar does not invalidate that assertion. It means you are ignorant of that term. It is therefore incumbent upon you to research that term before establishing an opinion on that assertion.
What you're doing is to simply dismiss everything you don't understand, which seems to be practically everything worth understanding.
Ah, PapaBear, you forget. This is JohnR7. Since his interpretation of the Bible is the sole source of wisdom and knowledge in existence, any term he isn't already familiar with from his study of said Bible is obviously a satanic trick!
JohnR7, just because you don't want to know about the evidence, does not mean the evidence does not exist. You can ignore that honking truck all you want, but eventually, its going to hit you.
Does it really matter whether he knows the word glyphosate or not? (I didn't know it until reading the comments here, but I at least didn't profess it doesn't count because I didn't!) This guy still can't even get the word EVOLUTION correctly defined and he's been hearing about it for a few years!! JohnR7 - ahem - YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT!
...and you can quote me. Ptooie!
I think that I am the one that is missing something.
*does a double take*
Wait, that's actually correct! That must be a sign of the Apocalypse.
And to think, he called me stupid?
JohnR7, if you ever read this; you are an uneducated, dishonest, white trash asshole who could not get a wife the normal way because of your shitty personality, and had to get a mail order bride instead (I am sure she is getting some on the side though).
Oh, yes - you are an idiot as well.
I fail to see how the Bible is an argument AGAINST evolution. I do not even know what "the Bible" is, so how can it be evidence for anything? Maybe for you it is evidence, for me it is just a word that I do not know the meaning of.
That kind of argument could spiral down very quickly...
here's what i got out of that:
"HAHAHA LOLZ ROFL LOLZ, I think that I is the one that is missing something. I fail to see how glyphosate is an arguement for evolution. I do not even know what glyphosate is therefore it doesn't exist. Maybe for everyone else it exists, but for me it is just a word that I don't understand and am to damn ass lazy to look up. HAHAHA LOLZ HAHA LOL!!"
Oh Hadanelith... Thanks really... every time I see a simple comment for these guys someone has to beat me up to it and his/her comment is the first one I see as it's the first one in hte list... Thanks for beating me againt to a comment... Oh no wait, sorry, it's not really your fault... These guys really make it easy for us to have something to comment? Don't they? If planetAD&d hadn't died I would be bringing some good participations in here... But sadly it's currently dead...
I wanted to check what's the role of glyphosate in arguments pro-evolution, irony has that nothing in it's description (I obtained from wikipedia) implies it has made an evolution-proving impact on ecology, it claims plants had to be genetically manipulated to resist the herbicide and that it harms some animals, but nowhere I see a mention of a species "evolving" to withstand it... By John's logic I shall just expect glyphosate to be in no way a proof of evolution but without his logic I could try a btter argument... Let's teach John how to argue:
"I've not found any definition of Glyphophate that backs-up evolution, if it backs-up evolution please provide me with a test I can myself do to see it does so, otherwise I will guess glyphophate is just a herbicide which does not proves evolution, but then of course that wouldn't be an evidence against evolution itself just against your evidence being worthy of that title".
I think its shamefool how you apeists all mok JohnR7. He dun red th Bible and assepted th wird of th Lord into his buzzoom. He dun shode me he got a sirkle wear th sirklumfrinse is thrie times what it is across - he dun meshured it with his speshool lastick meshuring tape sent to him by th Lord and he dun shode me.
Then he dun shode me sumthin else and wanted me to meshure it but Granny Kowaski didn't dun raze no fules and this girl got strate outta that trailer rite qwuik.
Yorse in th baby Jesus and all th litl dinosores
Rickty Sue
I completely agree with whoever said that not only was johnR7 a disgrace to people called john, but to labratory mice who's names end in R7.
Give this man an award please.
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny... every time you sit at your keyboard, you make Baby Jesus cry. #:'(> Look at him with his pound-symbol shaped crown of thorns and his - actually rather sinister looking - goatee.
John: I don't understand and I don't wanna so there NYAH!
Jesus: This... this guy is on MY side? Why do /I/ get all the idiots?

Wikipedia FTW!
Ignorance is no reason to lose a so-called debate, but I didn't really pay attention to the context ><. And the LOL is a feeble attempt to make any counterattacks to your statement weaker.
This guy's the smartest fundi who I ever witnessed posting before. I mean seriously, he was waaaaay wrong, but he was half-right about how he's missing something. I mean that's 50% more right than any other fundi.
JohnR
Hmmmm, where have I seen that name before?
John R
John R
Ah, I've got it. John R is a street in Detroit known to be actively populated with hookers. Frinstance' the corner of John R & Brush.
I don't know about the corner of John R & 7th
You don't get it because you're not very bright, are you.
In fact I'm sure there are black holes that are brighter than your type.
So, the basis of what we can use as evidence for anything is "does John R7 know what this is?"?
When I don't know the meaning of something, I google it. If that doesn't satisfy my curiosity I take a little walk to the library and read up on the subject some more.
I would never attack others with my ignorance.
Would you excuse me for a moment, I too don't know what glyphosate resistant weeds are (and neither did the spell check program...).
Back again. Ahaaaa! It's Roundup resistant weeds. Yes, that would be evidence for evolution, certainly.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
