What points has gore made that have not been refuted dozens of times?Well, I guess everyone sees things according to their own world view...wouldn't you agree? It seems to me that the same point that you make holds for the evol side of the house as well. Why not just respond to his points in a meaningfull way, instead of just quiting the playing field? Ignoring a poster because you don't like the points he makes doesn't work. If one does that in every case, before long you end up just debating one point of view, which isn't much of a debate at all.

No, I don't agree. Everyone sees the same things. One's worldview, however, can lead one to dismiss what's right before one's eyes. And no one's quit the playing field. We simply ignore one obnoxious poster and not because of the points he makes, but because he refuses to learn anything new and he consistently bluffs through being caught out in outright lies (ask him about his problems with the "wildly elliptical" thread from last April. He flat out lied about the genesis of the discussion, even after someone posted the original verbatim). His "points" are codswallop to anyone who spends five minutes on a google search, his tactics (the lies, the misrepresentations, the name calling -- he personally introduced the term "slimer" to these discussions) are trash and his attitude is obnoxious. You can converse with him all you want, but anyone who can't differentiate between "all frogs are amphibians" and "all amphibians are frogs" (from earlier in this thread) is not worth my time.
