From AntiSPOG:
"In my evaluation of Hammond's "Introduction to SPoG" I checked 180
claims Hammond has made. 11 (eleven) of these 180 claims can be seen as
true. Most of the agreed statements are trivial like "Today the world
faces enormous crises in population, oil resources, terrorism and Third
World poverty.". This statement alone includes four of the eleven agreed
claims.

A thesis based on 11 true and 169 false claims must be discarded as
inadequately thought-out. Scientific work published in the internet
should be based on traceable thoughts and backed up with references
which are accessible for everyone - e.g. by quoting passages out of a
book or adding links to other websites. This isn't the case in Hammond's
work. Mentioning names of (questionable) "authorities" doesn't make a
claim true, it only might be used to back up the own position. If a
thesis is based on the work of other scientists, a detailed description
should be added to see what they've contributed to the new thesis. If -
like Hammond says - statistical data of other scientists are involved,
it is a usual thing to add a link to these data or to give detailed
information where they were published.

Hammond's SPoG in the given form is the mediocre work of an amateur. It
lacks of logic and often contradicts itself. It claims to be
"scientific", but it doesn't show any example of scientific experiments
to back it up nor does it follow basic scientific rules. The best
example surely is Hammond's attempt to assign his virtual "psychometric
space" to real space. This attempt alone disqualifies Hammond as an
incompetent amateur who never has understood anything regarding real
sciences. If I - as an autodidactic amateur - can see these flaws,
errors and misinterpretations, then I ask myself why Hammond expects
that professional scientists should consider to agree with something
like his SPoG.

On the other hand, no real Christian will need Hammond's SPoG. In the
eyes of a true Christian, any attempt to calculate "God" is blasphemic,
the work of a heretic. Even if I don't believe in higher entities, I do
respect the beliefs of others. Hammond doesn't have such qualms - he
insults all Christians and rubs their deity through the dirt.

In the end, Hammond neither will win the hearts of true Christians nor
will he convince the reason of scientists. It took me two weeks to
gather all the information to disprove SPoG, a professional scientist
could do the same in less than two minutes... "

Kam:
You've posted that link before, and it still doesn't
rectify your cart/horse problem. It leaves the discussion
open as to whether or not God *really is* brain growth deficit.
Of course, many people don't believe that He is. *Instead*,
they believe that God created brains, and that brain growth
deficit itself is a part of His divine plan. Orthodoxy
directly contradicts your "explanation" of God - the one
you created for no purpose but to serve your theory.

Why is your helmet all beat up?

http://geocities.com/scientific_proof_of_god/dcp00105.JPG

You fall off your bike and hit your head allot don't you George? Did you
know that crash helmets are intended to be replaced after a single serious
impact. They are, after one use, like your SPOG - they are of no use.

Another thing George: see that big book that appears next to your right ear?
You should buy one and learn how to use it.




From: Don H on
Thanks for answers, even when only quoting Chapter and Verse from the
Scriptures.
Consider -
[Hammond] "Yawn... the God of that species will disappear. Remember, the
God of a man is a full grown man, the god of a horse is a full grown horse,
the God of a Frog is a full grown frog. Therefore if frogs disappear, the
God of a Frog disappears too, but not the God of the Giraffe's."
Questions:
(1) Does this mean polytheism?
(2) Or is it merely the same "God" manifesting Himself in various species?
(3) Even if invisible, intangible, and totally undetectable by any
scientific experiment?
(4) When do we have a "full grown" anything?
(5) And when and how would we recognise it if we encountered it?
(6) If respective Gods disappear when species disappear that brings us back
to the enduring deity of traditional religion, ie. the one who is there for
all eternity and which supposedly explains the existence of you and me, and
the universe?
(7) This God is, presumably, detached from any specific species; what is his
character?, and how do you prove his existence, i.e. independently of
psychometric species-dependency?
(8) If such detached God is not Human-related, then he/she/it could be a
bug-eyed monster, with a sadistic sense of humour, living solo, or one of a
clan of similar beasts?
(9) Is the human brain a case of over-specialisation, an evolutionary
defect, which will cause our imminent extinction?
(10) If I say I've been on hotline-to-heaven and assert George H to be a
false prophet, how can you prove me wrong - except by force of arms?
PS:
Is "Yawn", like "Amen", except at start, instead of at end, of Sermon?
