The Earth stands on the brink of its sixth mass extinction and the fault is ours

Reading this thread has been very amusing. I haven't seen anyone point out yet that most of that Lumi guy's posts have been complete obscenity laced rants screaming at everyone who disagrees with him. You can always tell the ignorant and uneducated by the large amount of obscenity in their speech. People who have a small paltry vocabulary fill in the blanks with curse words.

Its hilarious to hear someone trying to sound intellectual and "science" based while screaming "YOU FUCKING DUMB FUCKS!"

He may be ignorant when it comes to vocabulary, but I bet he kicks your ass at astrology. How much do you want to bet he can guess your birthday?

I only rage at people because of how unfuckingbelievably retarded they are. Like my mind is blown at the limit to which people can be morons. I'm so much smarter than just about everyone here that it's a complete fucking joke.

If this is anything more than just luck, you should go ahead and claim the $1M James Randi prize. I'm sure this would qualify as a supernatural or psychic phenomenon. Chances are, you've guessed wrong 364 times for every 1 time you've guessed right, and you only remember the times you guessed right. Let us know if you end up winning the James Randi prize. Until then, you're just another pseudo-science believing idiot. You're in the right thread though.

Sorry but no. I've literally guessed correctly around 90% of the time and I've done it a couple of dozen times. Just look up your own astrology personality profile and you'll be surprised at how accurate it is. Sagittarius fits me to a T and that's why I'm able to guess with extreme accuracy if someone else is as well. Also I made it clear that I guessed with extreme accuracy in my post but you're obviously too dumb to read. For you to call anything psuedo-science is a god damn joke since you believe in evolution which has zero evidence whatsoever and fits the exact description of pseudoscience but you're just way too dumb to think for yourself and only accept it because lots of people who call themselves scientists accept it. You're a complete embarrassment.

Ok, what's my birthday and/or astrological sign? I have hundreds of posts on these forums, so there is plenty of data for you to use.

My rip wasnt so much on astrology as the logical fallacies you use

Someone has been right once, therefore he is right every time

It's like an alchemy experiment right here, this thread is "evolving" into gold!!

Can't wait to see what genetic defects can culminate in this thread. Maybe an entire new species of stupid can be "created"!

I'd like to know more about the diversity of species we see now after the Permian-Triassic mass extinction wiped out over 90% of species?

What is a species?

Specere = to look; championed by Aristotle as a hierarchical system of classification for similar looking plants and animals based on Plato's idea of the immutable essence of things.

Leading eventually to the Binomial nomenclature defined as,

a system of nomenclature in which each species of plant or animal receives a name of two terms of which the first identifies the genus to which it belongs and the second the species itself.

Thus, if biologists are to use binomial nomenclature, and if they are to carry out the process of naming an organism in an objective manner, they need a clear definition of species. But attempts to say which populations should be treated as species have always been, and continue to be, problematic. In the long quest to establish valid classifications, a multiplicity of definitions for species have been proposed. This hunt for definitions is of such long standing, that it is known in biological circles as "the species problem."

And as Jean-Baptiste Lamarck realized, hybridization was rampant in both animals and plants,

The idea of bringing together under the name species a collection of like individuals, which perpetuate themselves unchanged by production and are as old as nature, involved the assumption that the individuals of one species could not unite in reproductive acts with individuals of a different species. Unfortunately, observation has proved and continues everyday to prove that this assumption is unwarranted; for the hybrids so common among plants, and the copulations so often observed between animals of very different species, disclose the fact that the boundaries between these allegedly constant species are not so impassable as had been imagined. It is true that often nothing results from these strange copulations, especially when the animals are very disparate; and when anything does happen the resulting individuals are usually infertile; but we also know that when there is less disparity these defects do not occur.

I wanted to here Luminari's theory of species Glenzig... and now you've ruined it.

So what is a species exactly then? Is there actually such a thing?
