Bill just quit the ID scam and claimed that he had never supported the ID scam (everyone knows that Bill has been an IDiot from when he first started to post here). Bill likely meant that he had never supported what the ID scam had always been. Pagano claimed that the Top Six were bogus, and were not the best evidence for the ID creationist scam. He tried to put up Dembski's junk instead, but Dembski had retired from the ID scam as an abject failure and none of his junk had made it into what the other ID perps considered to be the best evidence for ID. Pagano quit posting. Nyikos was MIA and after his return to TO he was clueless for years about what the Top Six had done to the ID scam. When Nyikos finally addressed the Top Six it destroyed his space alien fantasy. Nyikos started going on about god like space aliens from another universe could account for the Top Six. It turned out that Nyikos had always been supporting the ID scam to support his religious beliefs. Dean kept claiming that he did not remember not being able to deal with them every time he came back to post to TO. MarkE was likely never an IDiot, but he could not give up on the god-of-the-gaps denial and started putting the Top Six up one at a time, but he found that he could not deal with them one at a time either when he spent a lot of time defining what was around the origin of life gap in order to claim that the gap would never be filled. It turned out that the god that filled that gap was not the Biblical god, and MarkE quit putting up the lame Top Six gap denials. After a few months of running from the Top Six and just trying to post the second rate junk that the ID perps were still putting out Kalk claimed to quit supporting the ID scam. He claimed that the ID scam junk was no longer worth thinking about. Around that same time he admitted that he was not Hindu, and claimed that he had never claimed to be Hindu. That was in 2018, and I recall having to give a link to that post for someone that had missed the event, but I didn't save the link anywhere, or I'd put it up again.On Tue, 6 Aug 2024 16:24:30 +0000, Kestrel Clayton wrote:As I recall, as few months back he said that he was a Christian, or at least something that was readily interpreted as that.

though Kalkidas came out as a normal Biblical creationists there have
been Hindu sympathetic to Scientific Creationism and the ID creationist

The author thinks that science is a search for truth. I have never
considered science to be a search for truth. It is just the best means
we have of developing a working understanding of nature. This
understanding may not be the "truth" but it could be close, and allows
us to improve our understanding of nature and expand a functional
understanding of the reality that we exist in.

I do not recall Kalk ever stating how intelligent design supported his
hindu beliefs, and vice versa, but he did quote the Vedas from time to
time.

A section of the paper compares Vendata to the ID creationist scam.
Huh. I missed Kalkidas coming out as a fundamentalist Christian
creationist. Did he have a conversion experience, or was he a Christian
all along and lying about it?
neither, as far as I can tell. Though of course conversions, while
comparatively rare, do happen. But as far as I'm aware, he always was
and still is a follower of Vaishnavism.

He only ever objected to certain labels (with some good reasons I'd say)

Either way, I'm not all that surprised. For a lot of folks, denialism
isn't about what is, but rather what ISN'T: Moon landing denialists will
gladly accommodate flat-Earthers, orbit-onlyists,
fake-landings-real-pictures, fake-pictures-real-landings, and even
"secret nazi base on the far side of the Moon" crackpots, as long as
they all agree that the official account is somehow bogus.
Well, that's possibly closer the issue, as you, me and pretty much all
other contributors to TO on the science side are dead, we just
did not get the memo yet - the bioengineered Covid vaccine killed
us all, as planned by the oligarchs, for reasons unknown. Or so
Kalkidas
