I don't understand the attitude around here that crevo threads add nothing to the purpose of this forum. This article is a case in point. Creationism is a religious/political movement which threatens to marginalize the conservative movement and is thus fair game for any political discussion.

I agree. If one political party becomes tagged with the label of supporting pseudo-science, it becomes discredited. Liberals have already got half the country convinced that "socialism is the intelligent position," and that's why idiots out in Hollywood run around spouting leftisms -- so they'll be thought of as more than just a pretty face. We have our work cut out just convincing people of the truism that conservatism is the intelligent position. We don't need the millstone of "scientific creationism" to be dragging us down.

That said, I am officially declaring certain posters herein (or soon to be herein) on my "virtual ignore" list.

Right. Visitors to this thread should be aware that a small cadre of anti-science (and especially anti-evolution) people have perfected the practice of trolling for insults, so that when their provocative posts are answered, they can then complain of "abusive" behavior. They do this in the hope of having our threads pulled. Such people are a detriment to this website, and to the conservative cause. Everyone is therefore urged to NEVER respond to such posters. It can be difficult, because they are skilled at inciting flame wars; but it is only in this way that we can maintain a high standard of civil discourse, and preserve Jim Robinson's excellent forum as a place where conservatives can gather.

Another one of your pathetic lies. You guys press the abuse button regularly and have admitted as much. Creationists have no desire to have the threads pulled. The "monkey" business exhibited by the evolutionists does their cause more harm than good. Let the entire public observe!
