“Why does ID need ‘science’ to proclaim that life is too complex to investigate further?”

And then you used the word “zealot”. New Oxford American says a zealot is, “a person who is fanatical and uncompromising in pursuit of their religious, political, or other ideals,” and further adds, “A zealot exhibits not only extreme devotion but vehement activity in support of a cause or goal.”

You asked a question that was predicated on a lie. Further, you know it is predicated on a lie.

a) A zealot exhibits extreme devotion and you seem particularly devoted to something you know is a lie.

b) A zealot exhibits vehement activity in support of a cause or goal. Vehement is defined as “showing strong feeling; forceful, passionate, or intense”. Once again this seems to fit the description of someone who proffers a lie and knows that that’s what they are doing.

It appears that “zealot” would describe you specifically. Pot/kettle maybe?

Yes, I own a dictionary, too. Want to know the definition of “deranged”?
