NephsGuide – The Scholarship of NephilimFree, Scourge of Science

Text-based rebuttal to NephilimFree’s video: www.youtube.com NephilimFree needs an editor who can stomach his insanity. Someone who could tell him that, if you change the month on your article’s publication date, you should also get around to changing the day that follows it, too. This way you likely won’t run into having a date on your article in the future, on a non-existent date. And that ripping off Wikipedia is a bad idea, since people can so easily find this out. NephilimFree believes that the frameshift mutation that occurred in the Flavobacterium population had to have been intelligent design, because he butchers science badly (perhaps I should do a new Creationists Butcher Science on this, except an all-text-based one would be quite boring). He argues that the frameshift is due to a “Programmed Translational Frameshift Mutation” (I don’t know why he capitalized all the words . . .). One problem with this idea . . . Programmed translational frameshift mutations happen *after* translation. They are not part of the DNA. The mutation that occurs in this species of flavobacterium *is* embedded in the DNA. Poor NephilimFree . . . His ignorance and inability to write beyond a third-grader’s capacity makes him the worthless creationist we’ve come to mock on YouTube. Dunning and Kruger would be so proud of him.
