That’s not an answer


Jonah Lehrer has posted a reply to criticisms of his article on the ‘decline effect’ in science. It doesn’t work, and his arguments miss the mark. As I said, what the statistics show is that science is difficult, and sometimes answers are very hard to come by; that does not justify his attempt to couch the problem in language that suggests a systematic failure of science.

John Allen Paulos is saying the same thing. You can trust him, he’s a professional mathematician.

    Well Pz Myers esq; after me preparing a letter were “i” was going to speak of His great personality, and charater for being such a great host/allowing to be in His parade he ditched me! But being a man of my Word, “i” must give proof of the eternal deity requested by the Bald Nerd with Red Side burns!

    The first http is of an Amazing act of God who now prepares His earth for His return, where He literally came to my aid when some very evil men were trying to stop me for satan/death! Were these men some Mad Atheist gang?? No, they were/are what all look upon and call Holymen of God, yet are men who serve death! The consuming God showed up over mexico for me against these men and also of men in Mexico and south America! http://www.latest-ufo-sightings.net/2010/04/famous-ufo-cases-2004-mexican-ufo.html

    The last three urls are of the Holyones filmed by science and different film makers around earth, and is of the Holy Ones nearly always seen coming in or out of the Lakes of Fire for told of Rev:20:14-15 and of where they take the souls of men then come back out of the Lakes of Fire/Volcanoes!

    For biblical ference to know what you will be looking at Exodus 8:22 the God of the Midst of the Earth, and Exodus 13:21 the Pillar of a cloud during the day, and pillar of Fire by Night! The majority of the men and women on this blog of PZ MYERS ESQ; will be alive when He comes pouring through the clouds with Millions of Spirits/Angels as those in the Films to consume all flesh from off the land!

    The men the Holyone stood against for and with me back in 2004 so “i” could/can continue calling out to those people who many have been made Atheist do to the evil men of evangelism that tried stopping me, yet God allowed me To prophesy His standing with me, “i” literally foretold to those evil men to meet me in a field and bring death/satan with them, and “i” would bring the Holyones of GOD! After they viewed them over mexico they asked my forgiveness, “i” refused!
