It was written by a male dominated society where females were second class citizens. You know this though.BeamStalkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17772110446629492132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140917903722388348.post-34570035687594190012008-12-03T02:32:00.000-06:002008-12-03T02:32:00.000-06:00Am I the only one who gets the impression that Ray...Am I the only one who gets the impression that Ray's notion of how things work is inherantly sexist? Several times he seems (please note 'seems' - he may not mean to do this) to equate the male of a species with 'being' the species, with the female there merely to allow the male to reproduce.<BR/><BR/>Just me, or did anyone get this sense from it?BaldySlapheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122283491292815849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140917903722388348.post-69011413131408502422008-12-02T17:03:00.000-06:002008-12-02T17:03:00.000-06:00Motion Carried.**The Frog Invokes Roberts Rules of...Motion Carried.<BR/><BR/>**The Frog Invokes Roberts Rules of Order**Froggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12972110380349786742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140917903722388348.post-64431441855296122522008-12-02T17:00:00.000-06:002008-12-02T17:00:00.000-06:00The problem is that Ray doesn't understand evoluti...The problem is that Ray doesn't understand evolution from an even more fundamental level... namely the idea that populations not individuals evolve over time.<BR/><BR/>That's why, to him, males and females evolving together seems so ludicrous. To us, however, it seems obvious why they would given population dynamics and the fact that males and females share the same genetic code.Debunkey Monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15355896606457674317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140917903722388348.post-7540395953286542722008-12-02T16:52:00.000-06:002008-12-02T16:52:00.000-06:00By the way, your explanation is much more believab...By the way, your explanation is much more believable and coherent than "woman was made out of one of Adam's spare ribs" in a garden with a talking snake and a tree "of knowledge" with deadly fruit.

As Sagan said, it is ok to disavow gut feelings until the evidence comes it. I always find it peculiar that when we can't provide a comprehensive answer to all of life's inner workings and history, the creationist bellows, "Ah ha! Creation it is!". Then, of course, <I>we</I> are called arrogant.Clostridiophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06242245098663362751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140917903722388348.post-66805484688446102992008-12-02T16:42:00.000-06:002008-12-02T16:42:00.000-06:00Humble request seconded!Humble request seconded!Quasarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219765882891909223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140917903722388348.post-7080051288040408392008-12-02T16:31:00.000-06:002008-12-02T16:31:00.000-06:00Nicely done, Quasar.It's a tricky one to explain w...Nicely done, Quasar.<BR/><BR/>It's a tricky one to explain without it sounding very wishy-washy and hypothetical.<BR/><BR/>PS.
