I never claimed to be "moral", punk. Iron this.

This is odd coming from the lesser half of a 300+ post insult tag team.

Evolution insists that the sole explanation for the arising of new species is materialistic.

Wrong. Evolution is a scientific and purely naturalistic explanation for the arising of new species (naturalistic in that it does not inherently invoke divine intervention, not that it asserts that divine intervention is never involved within the process, so don't use that to lie and claim that it makes any such claim). Nothing in evolution makes claims to exclusivity. That is your strawman. Well, rather, that is your lie.

You just cannot stand that evolution really doesn't say anything regarding the existence of any gods, so you have to make up all kinds of lies about what it so that you can pretend that it really is the big terrible thing that you want it to be. I notice that you ignored the whole issue of life origins. What happened, realised that your lies on that front were soundly refuted?

"I'm pretty sure that I know my own motives."

Wow. Pretty sure? Sounds like an excuse about to happen. How very decisive.

I was trying to convey my frustration with Dataman's inability to grasp the obvious. It's kind of like an auto mechanic telling an idiot customer that he's "pretty sure" that he knows better how to remove a car engine than said idiot. In other words, I know my own motives, and I don't care for Dataman second-guessing them. Do you have anything of substance to offer, or are you just going to play semantic games?

You really didn't need to ask that did you? ;)

I think he makes himself pretty obvious, another ALS wannabe.

Man, you've done nothing but hurl insults since you got on this thread. Methinks you're trolling for a fight or you're looking to get this thread dumped.

You can dish it out, but you can't take it, huh? Typical Evophlegm. Suck it up, tubesteak. It takes two to tango. Fish or cut bait.

So yes, stasis is a strong disproof of evolution.

except in environments, like the mud of the ocean floor, where the conditions don't change much.

Yeah, that's it. You want to actually contribute something to the discussion or are you content just to sit on the sidelines and throw excrement at the real participants?

Yep, look like another disruptor and troll. What fun this is.

Geez, I wish the fanatics would go find somewhere else to play so that we can actually debate people that really want to debate, instead of tossing a bunch of childish insults around.

Hummm, let me quote from your profile:

Those who can't effectively support their opinions with facts, start fights... always the last refuge of a self-admitted loser.

Yep, that sounds like you describing you.

You come in here and start squealing at me like some junior high cheerleader for doing exactly what you have done since you showed up. You, like me, have done nothing but offer quips and snideness, all completely devoid of any substance pertaining to the topic being discussed.

The difference is, I'm not pretending to do otherwise. Truth be told, there really is no "debate" here, as evolution has already proven itself to be a sham.

That such a conundrum might spark heated opinion-(as opposed to "fact")-based debate should be expected by any but the most brain-dead. WHICH, by the way, describes anyone who jumps into the middle of a barroom brawl, and then complains about either getting clocked with an ashtray, or about the lack of logical substance to be found in the fray.

Dipwad.

... since you showed up ...

So that everyone will have access to the accumulated Creationism vs. Evolution threads which have previously appeared on FreeRepublic, plus links to hundreds of sites with a vast amount of information on this topic, here's Junior's massive work, available for all to review:

Sure, so I'm a loser. The fact that you, once having decided that all on your own (what a biggee BOY!), then also decided to engage me does NOT paint you as much of a genius, sad to say.

Nice to meet you, self-admitted fellow Loser.
