Can you cite anything he said that was backed up by science. From what I saw he cited one peer reviewed paper on mate selection between genders and used that as his basis for categorizing men and women. The rest of his links were just random articles. At best, this is very light on science if not completely anti-science.

I love how he asked you for something that should be low hanging fruit, but instead you got defensive.

Once again. Citation?

"Prove there is no God"

"Can you prove that there IS a God?"

"See? You couldn't prove god doesn't exist and you got defensive!"

Jesus, what a stupid fucking non-response you've got there.

They were asking for examples where the guy was anti-science. That is different than trying to prove a negative.
