What is Materialism?

-
Materialism is simply the claim that all we observe- the universe and everything in it- can be explained/ accounted for by matter, energy and what emerges from differing interactions of matter and energy.

Materialists are people who adhere to that doctrine.

However information is neither matter nor energy so materialists claim it emerges from the aforementioned interactions.

Of course all of that is, to date, untestable and therefor beyond the realm of science.

Chemo and Photosynthesis

-
Chemosynthesis and photosynthesis are two biological processes that evolutionism still cannot account for. I am still unsure why Kevin McCarthy wrote a piece about them as he sure as hell doesn't know how those processes originated.

Kevin McCarthy (D-Texas) is still an Ignorant Asshole

-
Kevin has attempted to respond to my comment about a book he contributed to but he struck out, again, as usual.

Materialism makes extraordinary claims- yes it does as materialism sez our existence is due to nothing but innumerable improbable coincidences, ie sheer dumb luck. And even Richard Dawkins admits science can only allow for so much luck and materialism relies on it.

The Earth? Nothing but cosmic collisions-> just-so cosmic collisions, ie innumerable improbable coincidences. That is an extraordinary claim. How can that be tested? Humans? Just a collection of genetic accidents- unfortunately no one knows what makes a human a human so no one knows if any purely materialistic process can produce a human. Heck no one knows if any purely materialistic produce can produce a living organism from non-living matter and energy. Another extraordinary claim without any evidence.

So yes, materialist and materialism are pejorative and only an imbecile would think otherwise. Enter Kevin McCarthy and skeptic ink.

RichTARD Hughes and His War on Logic, Reason and Science

-
Clueless TARD Richie Hughes has a new nonsensical post in which he sez:

At its (theistic) core, ID and creationism is angry with materialism / philosophical naturalism. 

ID doesn't have a theistic core and it isn't angry with materialism. Materialism is a failed philosophy so why be angry with it? He then sez IDists are all functional materialists yet doesn't explain what that is nor why IDists are all functional materialists.

Then Richie spews that science is our enemy. That is funny because science is what led us to the design inference and science confirms the design inference every day. He goes on to spew:

 It has explained the actual mechanisms of many phenomena previously attributed to the divine and is incredibly successful in a real word / pragmatic way.

No examples given. Also Richie doesn't understand that under materialism everything is just a matter of sheer dumb luck- innumerable improbable coincidences- and that is the real enemy of science.

Read Richie;s ignorant spewage for yourself
