James Tour Has Hit Rock Bottom

After my live debate with James Tour at Rice University, where he humiliated himself by shrieking like a toddler for two full hours, James kept quiet for a little while. But recently he's been opening his mouth again. I would say that you'd be surprised by how low he has sunk, but somehow at this point I don't think it will shock you. Nevertheless, let's go through his most recent shenanigans and laugh at how pathetic he has become, shall we?

_"if you losing a debate, yell at your opponent as loud as you can"_ ~James Tour, Art of Yelling

@Azaryahu 5 месяцев назад

I'd yell too if my opponent just kept calling me a liar rather than refuting my arguments. I don't even understand chemistry but I appreciate Tour's effort to demonstrate on the board more than Dave's "here is the paper", "James is a liar." & "you, the audience, are too stupid to understand chemisty so shut up"

@ege8240 4 месяца назад

@@Azaryahu Please dont see this comment as an insult and read it in entirety. see, this is exactly why Tour did what he did. He knows his ideas are moronic and any scientist can notice that. Thats why he plays for the layperson, those who dont know chemistry at a highschool level. When he points a chalk, these laypeople just think "dave is avoiding solution" when an actual scientist would know what tour is expecting wouldnt fit in the entire blackboard and it would be a waste of time for dave to memorise the entire process. It is a simple stunt to fool those who want their views validated with no actual knowledge, and from your comment it is easy to see it sadly worked.

@miaomiaochan 3 месяца назад

@@AzaryahuNice try, buddy. If you were faced with a debate opponent that hardly ever gives you an opening to speak at all, let alone speak at length, you wouldn't be able to refute his arguments either. You see, there's a difference between not being given a chance to refute in the face of constant interruptions and changes of topic and not having the knowledge to refute. It's called the Gish Gallop - go look it up, bro. And it's not like Tour was debating in good faith. Tour wouldn't accept Dave's answers whenever the latter managed to get an answer in between Tour's bouts of yelling.

@Azaryahu 3 месяца назад

@@ege8240 Tour debated Lee Cronin, one of Dave's major sources. Why don't you go watch that debate so you can talk more about how moronic and unscientific Tour's arguments are. (Post debate, he had an interview with an atheist chemist who agreed with the pseudoscience behind OOL) in his openning, Tour predicted that Lee would not talk about his points, I leave it to your judgement to decide whether his prediction was true or not.

@Azaryahu 3 месяца назад

@@miaomiaochan The debate was very chaotic indeed because it was informal though it looked like they were supposed to follow a formal debate format. But I disagree that Dave was not given a chance to talk. But it is also true that Tour kept interrupting Dave, he should have waited his time to talk. But also we can see in the "debate" that things really start escalating when during Dave's turn to talk, he started his ad hominem about Tour's tweets. Dave even replied to a comment I made that the whole point of his attending this debate was "to prove James as a liar", even though he was the one who agreed with Tour about scope of their debate (are we clueless on OOL), which is why he starts talking about tweets instead of staying on the topic of chemistry. Hence a very chaotic debate for both of them, especially with the moderator forgetting to moderate at times 💀

He is clearly just making this "challenge" so he can then claim "well, these people didn't drop whatever they were doing to prove me wrong, so clearly I must be correct". This really is no different then a random flat earther saying "I'll debate Neil deGrasse Tyson and if he doesn't agree to this, I win by default!" That's not how that works unless academia has changed an awful lot since I studied, not to mention that, even if any one of them bothered with this, the goalposts would move at biblical speed (which, according to YECs is about 2.3 million times faster than real time).

This is the primary reason why these Creationist arguments from probability always fail. They always defined the target sequence too narrowly. Yes, the chance of a given molecule forming is astronomically low. But the target sequence is too narrowly defined. For a 500-residue amino, the chances of that particular one forming are 1 in 20^500. But they assume that *only 1 in 20^500 sequences work.* They have no justification for that assumption. BTW, you might want to see an article where I talk about just this kind of thing: Levenson, B.P. 2022. Probability or determinism: How rare is ETI? Journal of the British Interplanetary Society 75, 348-356.

But also the probability is not relevant because we necessarily live in a universe where those sequences formed. Whatever the odds are, they had to happen or we wouldn’t be here.

the probability also has to be seen in the context of how many repetitions of the circumstance occurred over the given time. Sure the probability is low but in such a vast universe over such a long time the low probability becomes a certainty.

I went to my parent's place after to discuss. My dad was the president of the school and moderated the debate (or maybe just introduced them). He's a Christian. And somehow he thought the edge went to Dinesh. You can watch it online. It was, as it always is, a sad joke. The christians, in their own environments, are almost always defensive, smug, insert loads of mentions of escatology, epistemology and ontology, but crumble within minutes of being tested. And yet the congregations of eager students and faculty somehow leave buoyed that they racked up another win for the big Man. Ugh. Poor God.

I have to wonder, then, why he clings so desperately to something he knows is false. I suspect that he is petrified by the prospect of oblivion-that acknowledging the falsehood of creationism would initiate a domino effect ultimately toppling his salvation, the immortality of his soul. So he is lying because his life depends on it. This is a man with a gun to his head.
