Default CF: DNA is a lie. MmKay

Is Genetic Research a Scam?

Quote:
DNA is a myth. It was concocted by scientists to try to prove evolution.

The "real-world evidence" is always being misinterpreted and/or even

being altered by evolutionists.
I suspect a troll. But look at the people agreeing with him.

I've seen it held on the end of a salad fork. Does that help?

Absolutely astounding. Make sure the monkeys answer Troodons question.

I would not be surprised to find out a few years from now that most genetic research is a scam, just something for the government and biotech companies to get money from.
But yet they are not paranoid.

That is just sad. What doesthis woman think goes on in labs around the world? Do we all just sit around, living off of our NIH grants staring at the wall and laughing about how we've fooled everyone?

Wow.

When she gets sick, I hope she stays away from the wicked and unethical medical profession and restricts her treatment to praying herself better. Otherwise whe's a hypocrite as well as an idiot. Mind you, this isn't the first time I've seen the "DNA doesn't exist" argument from creationists. A lot of them have no idea what organic macromolecules are; they seem to think DNA is the code word for some sort of hypothetical concept.

Isn't it interesting how she can get away with accusing the whole biology research community of committing fraud with taxpayer money (posts like that have been pulled from the BBC boards as potentially libellous - sometimes, at any rate) and the mods don't bat an eyelid, but if you raise an eyebrow at one of the faithful, you risk getting banned over there.

Albion,

Don't you understand? Anything that contradicts the Bible is part of the Grand International Atheist Conspiracy. We are constantly faking research and siphoning away billions of dollars of government money that could be going towards building more churches and funding Bible camps.

All those people who supposeably have been saved by all these so-called "medicines" that they get at hospitals are actually saved by the prayers of the floor nurse. All these so-called "health services" are one big money making scam to fund our efforts to blind mankind to the Good News about Jesus.

I mean, it's so obvious

Oh, I certainly do understand. However, the Great Atheist Conspiracy doens't always take kindly to libel from theists. Some website administrators understand that; apparently the CF ones don't, they're much more interested in Rufus not contradicting Louis Booth or whichever other thin-skinned mod happens to have taken offence at a comment along the lines of "that's wrong."

Jobar stands aghast, staring down into the frightful depths into which the minds of men can descend
