:tantrum:
Well?!?!? Why are you moderators locking my threads?!?!?
I notice that the shape of your skull shape indicates that you are best fit for cleaning lavatories.

After your first post, it was all flame bait. Scolo was correct in locking this thread. You didn't want to debate, you wanted to make people look stupid based on what their head looks like.

I think Scolo explained himself quite clearly. Perhaps you missed it:


Phrenology has been rather well-debunked and I am less than amused to see it resurrected simply as an excuse to insult people in roundabout ways.

That's thick-headed no matter which way it is analyzed, either with calipers or, my personal favorite, 'the volume method' (i.e. dunking the offender's head in a bucket of water).

--Scolo

As an aside, I once went to a college who's founder was big on phrenology. It was discussed ad nauseum in a Criminal Psychology class. To be blunt, it's junk science.

Furthermore, you were simply performing a cut-n-paste, as opposed to coming up with anything original. If you want to discuss the pros and cons of phrenology (or insulin-shock therapy, hydrothermic therapy, trepanation, lobotomies, or any other discredited science) feel free to do so, but in your own words, not by quoting a 180 year old disertation, and then flaming people for not wanting to waste their time reading it.

Way to back-pedal there.

It's staying locked.
