Vivaramones - as of October 2012 known as "VivaYashua" - is one of Shock's moderators. Ken DeMyer from Conservapedia, who's known for obsessively link-whoring Shock's chatroom as a suitable debate venue, describes him as "the chat moderator." In fact he's just one of several mods.
Viva claims to be studying for a science degree, but has some ideas that might make this difficult for him. For example he seems to think that science is run on a conspiracy theory model, where "everything we're taught to believe is wrong" and a huge evil conspiracy shuts out any dissent from existing ideas. He also seems to lack much of a grasp of what the theory of evolution actually says, but never mind.

ReplyDeleteFergus,
ReplyDeleteI saw your vague comment which poorly defended atheist Lawrence Krauss's bizarre statement that 2 plus 2 equals 5 for extremely large values of 2.
I am referring to your comment to this post: http://questionevolution.blogspot.com/2012/08/does-militant-atheism-and-evolutionism.html

Fergus,
Please elaborate and fully defend your view.
Second, if you think I am going to continue to allow you to post vague and poorly defended comments, you are mistaken. I am not going to.
"Lawrence Krauss's bizarre statement that 2 plus 2 equals 5 for extremely large values of 2."
DeleteIt wasn't actually a statement; it was what we normal people call a "joke." The basis of the joke is that there is only one value of 2, which is 2. The point of it is that what people call "common sense" breaks down under the conditions found in the study of cosmology. You should know all about jokes, Ken, what with being a particularly long-running one yourself.
I can draw a triangle whose angles add up to 270°, by the way, and that is NOT a joke.
