Jim has made himself quite clear on this particular issue. He has stated that he will not allow anyone to post against his core Christian beliefs, which includes creationism. - If you're so at odds with those beliefs, why would you want to be here?
Jim is highly respected by the vast majority here, even if we may from time to time have a different opinion about some particular issue, and so we do not taunt him on his beliefs. Those that do usually end up taking a long hike off a very close cliff.
Then why hasn't this entire thread been pulled ES?
I rarely post in the evo/creationist threads, but frequently post in the Religion Open forums.
The posting guidelines state:
Open threads are a town square. Antagonism though not encouraged, should be expected
Posters may argue for or against beliefs of any kind. They may tear down other’s beliefs. They may ridicule.
On all threads, but particularly “open” threads, posters must never “make it personal.” Reading minds and attributing motives are forms of “making it personal.” Making a thread “about” another Freeper is “making it personal.”
When in doubt, review your use of the pronoun “you” before hitting “enter.”
Like the Smoky Backroom, the conversation may be offensive to some.
Thin-skinned posters will be booted from “open” threads because in the town square, they are the disrupters.
You're welcome to point out where I've violated these guidelines.
