Ipse dixit, and wrong. Doctors and other CREDENTIALED medical researchers - that excludes you - say the common cold is caused by rhinoviruses. If a rhinovirus gets into your nasal passages and begins reproducing, you will get a cold. YOU get colds, Orthorexic John - stop lying about it. > > >>I don't, and don't need to do. > > > this contradicts your prior false claim that "no one" believes me.

All scientific theories go through stages of development.

It does have a basis in reality, Orthorexic John: Humans are real, and humans rationally have devised "species" as an explanatory tool. "Species" is real. > Humans did not "emerge as a species", The sciences of zoology, anthropology, biology and genetics dispute you. As you have no training in any of those, I'll go with the Ph.D.s in those fields, who find "species" to be a useful concept.

You have no competence in any of the relevant sciences. Please feel free to trot out your credentials, WITH names and phone numbers of responsible persons at the accredited universities where you took your degrees. > > >>I doubt that.
