Penny Up Or Shut Up Mental Midget

You're use/misuse of Benton's comments were rebutted at funny double standard to which you have had no reply

An even more thorough commentary in response to people with far greater relevant expertise than Benton Clark was at The Whole Story BD Never Tells to which you had no reply other than mindless reposting of the post I was replying to.

And you have yet to address the glaring contradictions in your use of panspermia evidence detailed at Barry's BS Playback Continues to which you also had no reply.

In short you imply Zubrin is off his rocker for claiming Martian meteorites are likely to bring Martian life to Earth IF it existed despite abundant independent evidence to support this.

When your nose is rubbed in this fact you avoid admitting it and post something else by people with marginal expertise on the issue saying it doesn't matter anyway. Clearly a more debatable issue, but you never respond to detailed debate on the issue in your own words.

The biggest clue to your scientific ineptitude however is you self-contradictions and sloppy logic. You support far less well-accepted evidence of panspermia flu when it suits your agenda while denying far more accepted evidence for possibility of meteorite based transfer. You claim there is no evidence for meteorite based transfers then turn around and post the Benton abstract claiming that mass extinctions may have been caused by alien organisms possibly from Mars. So which is it Barry, there is evidence or there isn't? You are so ignorant of scientific reasoning that you have in the past linked the absence of proof of Martian life on Earth as rebutting the meteorite transfer mode when in fact in light of the meteorite transfer tests that is evidence that either there is no life on Mars, that it can't survive long enough to be detected, or that Mars life is indistinguishable from Earth life.

You have so little knowledge of science that your main attempts to debate the issue are through mindless copying of what someone else has said. You seldom rebut critical commentary on that and muddle logic horribly on those rare occasions you do use your own words.

I wish the Mars Society was so great and powerful that it could instantly materialize defendants whenever you open your mouth, but unfortunately its just the large number of scientifically literate people here who can easily spot someone as clueless as you.

Man I'm really tired of loosing all these debates to you Barry. :-P
