Since 2010, he has engaged with various members of the Magic sandwich show: Thunderf00t, Aron Ra, DPR Jones, and HogTieChamp on the topic of Evilution. He adamantly believes biological evolutionary theory inherently inferior to his proposed "theory" which primarily consists of because something looks designed (Telonomic) therefore it must have be designed by some type of intelligence (Teleological). Ronnie is one of the "go-to" members of the Clown Car Posse for scientific information, although CCP members seem not to notice that he is as scientifically illiterate as they are. Not to mention the fact that he couldn't type a grammatically correct sentence to save his life. His method of constructing arguments seems to be to pick up a grade school level biology or chemistry textbook, memorize a few of the sciency-sounding words, and then string them together into sentences with no regard to their meaning or proper usage. Ronnie has built a reputation for himself over the years due to his astonishing lack of self-awareness and sheer dishonesty. Rarely do members of the CCP practice introspection but TE simply lacks the ability entirely. He's even gone as far as to claim that Alex Botten is a "hard solipsist" even though Botten was in the same hangout exclaiming the contrary. This hangout became known as the "Inner solipsism of solipsism" in reference to a quote made by TE towards Botten.[1] His hangouts are typically rife with equal amounts of self-aggrandizement and general scientific illiteracy. Ironically enough, he bemoans the "Evolutionists" who "know nothing about science" whilst making egregious scientific claims himself. Upon allowing dissenters to join his hangouts he promptly hides them from broadcast and/or keeps their volumes muted. Most have figured out that this is something he does to control the conversation when he cannot respond to the claims being made and it a defensive tactic to save face. He's since stopped allowing dissenters to join his hangouts for fear of future criticism for this "habit." Ronnie has a love/hate relationship with Sam the Scientist and Dragnauct. Many have speculated that he is both jealous and envious of both individuals but harbors more anger towards Dragnauct because of his constant chiding. Ronnie keeps a running record of when he has "corrected" both Sam and Dragnauct and uses it in conversation as some form of leverage when criticism is levied against him. While both individuals have acknowledged that he (Ronnie) has accurately depicted some scientific phenomena, they are in accord with the assessment that Ronnie has very little overall knowledge in the field of biology but simply puts on airs as if he does. Ronnie is no also known in certain circles as the person who knows less about science than a porn star. This achievement alone is worthy of an epitaph on one's tombstone.
Inability to accept that he ever made a mistake
Ronnie has this capacity to never ever be able to accept that he could be wrong or accept that he may have been wrong on anything he has ever said. Any admission of having made a mistake would result in mental castration and could bring back memories of having to put on a dress and play with barbie dolls as a child. Ronnie will double-down on his original claims bending over backward to justify what he said erroneously and was corrected on.
Case in point: DNA degrades in water. The inner solipsism of solipsism, ATP synthase, phosphodiester bonds, the circumference of the diameter of pi and his failed attempt at webdesign etc... at a certain point this becomes a mental illness and one has to seek help. Unfortunately his CCP friends are not willing to tell him that he was wrong because they themselves are also too thick to pick up mistakes Ronnie has made.
The never ending saga of "DNA Degrades in Water"
Ronnie on Telomeric Sequences and Human Chromosome #2
The Inner solipsism of solipsism Incident
This video is a clear example of the Ronnie effect. Ronnie goes into a debate with Alex Botten with his own understanding of what "solipsism" means and not actually understanding the concept. He then accuses Alex to be a solipsist to which Alex then tries several times to explain to Ronnie that he is not, and that even if he was it would not matter because of the definition of solipsism. Ronnie then makes a massive ass of himself by demonstrating a complete lack of listening skills and a thirst for being told over and over that he can t understand complex concept and he should stick to Marvel coloring books. The became known as "The inner solipsism of solipsism" incident.

Famous For
Ronnie is famous for being a fervent defender of ATP synthase rights as well as the right of DNA to degrade in water (which is the title of his current work in progress NOBEL thesis. A thesis he works on when not spending his last paycheck at Popeye's).
Rage quitting his own hangout when he was the solo occupant.
Rumor has it that Ronnie was apparently the inspiration for the character of Secretary of Defense in the movie Idiocracy
Ronnie was offered free tuition for science classes at University of Chicago at Illinois by LemedStudent which Ronnie then blocked and never responded to. A broad sample of Ronnie's videos were watched in a UIC class of graduate students who proceeded to vote on the names of the mental issues and fallacies demonstrated. Voting had to be stopped quickly as exposure to derp was becoming dangerous. This single event and exposure to such high level of derp resulted in more than 300 extra votes for Ronnie's DFOTY award, enough to consolidate his win.)
Having one of the most hideous looking and unintelligible web pages of all time, replete with factual errors and both numerous grammatical and spelling mistakes. Sam the Scientist and Dragnauct did a review video of his web page and kindly pointed out with extreme laughter these mistakes to wit Ronnie promptly issued a statement claiming that he had been hacked rather that admitting the mistakes were his own.
[Please change to a reference and need video of Sam/Drag's review as one too]
Ronnie's been hacked? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1J0x3Ic8Iw
Debate Techniques
- Coughing: This tactic is generally used to provide time to read scripts and web pages while trying to talk without producing pauses in the conversation.
- Considers the usage of Powerpoint to be a factor to him losing the debate to Steve McRae.(G Man told him having a presentation is unfair to use in a debate, so Ronnie didn't bring one, nor an opening statement, nor an actual argument, nor anything that could even be remotely construed as a debate presentation).
- Hides his models. No model will be presented in debates to support own assertions. Why? because fuck it that's why.
- Uses nonsensically as a thinking process.
- Blocks people he disagrees with and considers this a valid debate technique.
- Kicks people, from his hangouts, who demonstrate that he is wrong on a subject or that he said something stupid.
- Lifts sentences from wikipedia science pages and topics in the hope that by mixing, what he considers complicated words and sentences together, will confuse other members of the CCP.
Super Powers
- Ability to see motors and turbines
- Dunning-Kruger Zen Master
- Black belt in Psychological Projection
- Dishonesty
- Ability to focus only on his own thoughts while not listening to the conversation (also known as the LALALALA technique...widely used by members of the CCP)
- Circa 1997 web design skills, Nephilimfree grade.
- Ability to master Bio 100, Chem 1&2, Orgo 1&2 and Physics 1&2 without prior knowledge on topics. Basically can obtain college level knowledge in argumentation using babble pulled out of own butt.
Awards
- Winner of the 2017 Dumbfuck of the Year contest run by Reds Rhetoric, with a staggering 839 votes.
- Recently received a #Bitchmade award following his debate with Steve McRae
Famous Quotes
"Just because I'm not a scientist, that doesn't mean I'm not an idiot."
"The inner solipsism of solipsism".
"Scientists usually use water in their aqueous solutions"
Once tried to calculate "the circumference of the diameter of pi"
"Binary is a four digits code"
Appearances
Ronnie made an appearance in 2016 in one of Sye Ten Atheist's videos: Fist me in a gash
Fallacies used
- Arguments from ignorance/incredulity
- Non Sequitur
- Red Herring
- Straw Man
Might be suffering from
- Massive case of butthurtitis (Ronnie promptly deleted all his videos after being told by a woman that he looked stupid to others because of his nonsensical argumentation. Since all of Ronnie's friends are virgin single males, the epiphany of having an intelligent woman tell him that basically he would never reproduce was enough for him to ragequit youtube)
- Symptoms of recto-cranial inversion
- Delusions of reality, inflated ego, inability to listen and learn.
- Ronnie is regularly convinced that he knows more on topics than MDs, PhDs and various professors or members of the academia.
Is definitely suffering from being a Grade A tit.
Things to annotate
Thinks oxygen gives up four electrons to become oxidized rather than become reduced in complex IV of the Electron Transport Chain.
Claims DNA degrades in water such that if DNA goes into solution it "falls apart like tissue paper" and "breaks apart into it's constituent parts" and "loses its sequence".
Claims DNA is "sekwanchal specified information" (whatever that means), and that this is definitive proof of the Biblical God. Somehow. Because reasons.
Claims not to be a Young Earth Creationist, but uses Young Earth Creationist arguments.
Thinks 2000°C water can stay liquid at atmospheric pressure.
Has rage quit YouTube/ G+ more times than Brett Keane has.
Left in the middle of debate with Steve McRae before the Q-and-A.
TrueEmpricism did so bad in his debate with Steve McRae that Jesus was so embarrassed by it that he said that his sacrifice no longer covers TrueEmpiricism's sins.
TrueEmpricism is the only person known to have rage quit two of his own one man hangouts twice in the same evening.
Famous for his "inner solipsism of solipsism".
Really doesn't grasp the DMCA, causing him to run afoul of the YT rules.
Agreed live on air that birds fly by farting across the sky.
In a discussion on the League of Reason he claimed that DNA was a 4 character code just like computer code. Yes apparently binary code has 4 characters. He later tried to edit that page but was caught out by Fiona Robertson who notified the League of Reason and they restored the original which can be found here:

It was noted on last online/hangout debate between Steve McRae and TE that TE had no scientific model that could fight side by side, toe by toe, head by head and science by science to the powerful explanation of the Theory of Evolution (ToE) - a powerful battleship for Steve. This scientific weakness from Ronnie (TE) had caused Ronnie to lose his credibility to debate in science in where science deals with models. But Ronnie's attempt to show the errors of ToE from the perspective of the old ID is notable. - from MrIntelligentDesign
