Fact-Checking James Tour’s Embarrassing Debate Performance
Professor Dave Explains Any rational person who watched my debate with James Tour was immediately struck by Tour's totally insane behavior, focused on chalkboard pageantry and shouting like a deranged lunatic for two full hours. But there is a lot more to discuss regarding the very numerous and very specific lies he told during the exchange regarding the scientific literature we were discussing. Not to mention the biased moderator and other key details, which deserve to be addressed. So let's dive into a little fact-checking endeavor, which comes with commentary from four experts in the OoL field: Dave Deamer, Loren Dean Williams, James Attwater, and Kepa Ruiz-Mirazo. Let's humiliate James even more AND learn about cool science in the process!

James thinks no one has demonstrated RNA formation on montmorillonite clay. He's a lying idiot:
