But what do the Cambrian rabbits they eat eat?

Perhaps the rabbits at the base of the fluff chain were chemotrophic.

Rabbits all the way down . . .

Cambrian rabbits eat Cambrian rabbits.

You dodged responding to the message (claim?), and 'shoot the messenger.'

The DODGERinCHIEF accusing somebody else of dodging!

[shunyadragon]

I wonder what those pre-Cambrian rabbits would be eating.

Or why they would have rodent-like incisors, when there were no woody plants.

So count me in as another one happily willing to take that bet.

Cambrian rabbits eat Cambrian rabbits.

[shunyadragon]

is that the fallacy shunyadragon was referring to.
Because I didn't really have a conclusion to the message (the claim)

Well, they'de be living in the ocean eating radiolaria.

Duh.

"Darwinists are so stupid." Right Jorge

well

Well, good for you.

It's admirable to choose a hill to die on in a futile attack.

The insurmountable hill of scientific evidence assailed by the pop-gun of one of many Genesis interpretations is brave even if stupid.

But more power to ya.

The Porcupine in the Paleozoic challenge was an noble effort.

Fer suure.

Methinks he is a she.

And she made it clear she doesn't care about the evidence. Her interpretation of six pages of "history" is the Joker Get-out-of-Jail-Free Card for ignoring all the physical evidence (with which she apparently agrees!).

She does get credit for a sense of humor and agreeing that there's no boundary between micro and macro evilution and that there's a haywagon load of evidence for deep time.

Actually she might just be the prime example of origins theology cognitive dissonance.

you are assuming it was because of the message (the bad news)
Didn't you see the part where I said I didn't have a problem with the message

....look, if that was the case, I would be shooting everybody in natsci

"Shooting the messenger" is a metaphoric phrase used to describe the act of lashing out at the (blameless) bearer of bad news.

Until the advent of modern telecommunications, messages were usually delivered by a human envoy. Sometimes, as in war, for example, the messenger was sent from the enemy camp. An easily provoked combatant receiving such an overture could more easily vent anger (or otherwise retaliate) on the deliverer of the unpopular message than on its author.

"Attacking the messenger" is a subdivision of the ad hominem logical fallacy

By the way, shunyadragon,
...which logical fallacy am I guilty of

Ad hominem.
