LOL! This wouldn't be so funny if it didn't happen just a few days ago over at the CARM
EVO board. Someone who was an evolutionist signed up under the name "CriticalEyes" and pretended to be creationist. He was pretty convincing, especially to the other creationists, although his claims were rather preposterous and his logical fallacies pretty numerous. Nevertheless, many creationists supported him and even defended him against criticism from evolutionists.
However, it were not creationists who unmasked him but some evolutionists, to whom his claims appeared a bit too outlandish even for a creationist. After they uttered their suspicion that he may be a troll who only poses as a creationist he admitted this.
Of course this wasn't the end. After a few days he signed up again under the screen name "PReece" and the whole
spiel began anew: evolutionists trying to explain evolution to him and pointing out logical fallacies and creationists defending and backing him up. And again it wasn't a creationist who exposed him.
Sure, there was a lot of moaning and groaning going on among the creationists and they accused the evolutionists of being dishonest (and that this must have something to do with evolution; of course he was also criticized by evolutionists) but all this doesn't divert from the fact that creationism is indistinguishable from its parody.
I think some creationists are still quite embarrassed because they supported him.
Here are two threads that discuss this: Yes, I'm a troll and Message to PReece....
On this forum, we've had such outrageous characters as medved and God's Traveler, just to name two. Medved pumped the forum full of malarky about psychic parrots, Earth orbiting Saturn in prehistory, a funny compressed version of civilized history which says about a millenium and a half never happened, etc. God's Traveler, among his little idiosyncracies, claimed to sit at the right hand of God. That looked blasphemous even to agnostic lil' ol' me. He was also poisonously nasty. Neither of them or anybody else from a bizarre cast of creos got a peep of anything but praise from the creo crowd so long as they tended to slap high-fives with the right side. Do that and you can do no wrong.
Against that, one No-Kin-To-Monkeys violated the sacred rule of "Thou shalt not bitch-slap a fellow creo." At the time, embroiled in argument with the receiver of the rebuff, I simply thought that the behavior showed that intellectual honesty in a creo was possible after all. What happened next was a revelation. A howl went up from slappee that No-Kin was obviously an impostor.
That proved right. Accused of being that impostor, I authorized the mods to check. I was innocent but somebody else presumably got yelled at. If you're ever going to impersonate a creo, remember "Solidarity over honesty."
