Talk:Immanuel Velikovsky (view source)
Revision as of 13:06, February 16, 2009

:::::there is something about Velikovsky that automatically stirs up terrific arguments! The only point i'm trying to make is one of high relevance to some CP users: Christian creationists never cite or credit or use his work, that seems definite. The reason why seems best explained by the quote-- for a creationist to accept his theories you have to reject the Bible and miracles and accept evolution.

::::::My main criticism of the [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Immanuel_Velikovsky&diff=624276&oldid=624214 current statement], is that it describes the consensus view, apparently based on one quote. Perhaps the William D. Stansfield's ''Skeptical Inquirer'' article you mentioned above, has a more relevant quote on the creationist view? --[[User:Eric2009|Eric2009]] 07:31, 16 February 2009 (EST)

I don't think it is a matter of all or nothing, Eric. One can accept parts of what a person says, and it does not logically follow that doing that means an endorsement of everything that person has ever said, right? --[[User:TK|'''₮K''']]<sub><small><small>/Admin</small></small></sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 08:06, 16 February 2009 (EST)
