You don't have to be so thin skinned. I wonder what you would say if you were on the receiving end of what I am currently getting from JO.
"Ad hominem " you keep using that phrase. I do not think it means what you think it means
I'd respect his opinion, but disagree. Then move on. It's a TV/movie franchise.
Wait, Chalie X is the one that messed things up but Gary Mitchel is the one that benefited from it and was all powerful.
You don't seem to know the meaning of irony either.
What biological evolution is or isn't is not subject to my opinion or anyone else's. Locutus101 has demonstrated he doesn't understand what evolutionary biology is. Identifying that someone's arguments are based on ignorance is not ad hominem.
You have no actual knowledge of biology. You don't even know the difference between a genuine scientist and a charlatan.
I was more about a general disagreement.
You got that right. There is a general disagreement between him and myself.
Calling people names isn't helping your case.
I am not calling anyone names.
Why would you say that?
My case is strong enough as I am visibly the only one who's been to college.
You're currently insulting mine. I have never called anyone names. Quote me doing so. I dare you.
I'm sorry. I don't mean to draw you into this but, what disagreement? Being factually wrong and stubbornly refusing to acknowledge one is factually wrong is not an opinion. It's just doubling down on being wrong. You don't decide for yourself that water is not wet and refuse to budge when someone notices you are wrong.I was more talking about a general disagreement.
I wasn't talking about this conversation, at all.
More Irony. You don't understand the very concept of evolution. You keep making meaningless analogies, because you'd be at loss to make a factual statement about evolution itself.

Q can alter fundamental laws of the universe. He can travel backward and forward through time. By his own statement, he is "immortal" and "omnipotent." By even the most basic definition, he is a higher power as compared to the humanoids we have seen in TNG. There were the Metrons in TOS, as well as the Organians, who both evolved beyond the various humanoid species we see in TOS. In DS9, we have the Prophets, who live in the wormhole, and while that is where they stay, they can see all points and choices in time, and have difficulty understanding how other species only see time as linear, and limited. These, too, are higher powers in that sense. It doesn't make them better, but it does illustrate Picard's point about there being higher powers in the universe, ones he doesn't know about or yet understand. Picard's statement is completely valid, and is that of an agnostic.
I tend to think he has a much better grasp of things than you do. Take it for what you will.
What did I do to you that justifies this opprobrium?
