Man, what is it with Christians? Another one goes after me in an article titled Why P.Z. Meyer is Afraid, and a fellow just has to wonder how deeply they are capable of reading when they so grossly misspell my name all the time. "Myers": it's only five letters long, and it's the most common spelling variant of that name in the US.
Anyway, it's the usual litany: I'm uncivil and rude, I'm popular, I have a brute squad, I'm nasty, and I "attack the person rather than the argument". That last one is particularly ironic because the entire post is nothing but an attack on me, and doesn't even tackle my argument.
And what prompted this outburst? My post on Moshe Averick and his lack of understanding. Go ahead, read it; despite fuming over it, my IDiot critic doesn't bother to include a link to it, possibly because it refutes his claims. The worst thing I say about Averick is that he's a clueless creationist, right after explaining why he has missed the point. The post is about how complexity and design are independent properties, and how you can't use complexity as a proxy for design, despite the fact that that is almost the entirety of the intelligent design case.
It was an attack on the argument, not the person. Sad, deluded Joel doesn't even understand that. But then, his brain has been addled from "dealing with matters of deep theology (in particular the Trinity and Incarnation)". Poor boy. [Yes, that's an attack on the person. Study it, Joel, and learn what it actually is.]
