It is very hard to let go of what you perceive as wrongs that occurred in the past.

The problem is not about wrongs in the past, it is about wrongs in the present. The evolutionists will spam, insult, threaten and bait people with outrageous lies until the thread where they are losing is either pulled to the smokey backroom or pulled all together. Of course, once it gets put in the smokey backroom they behave even worse. That is what happened to the "Scientists Vie to break Junk DNA" thread when Vade Retro at post# 603 made a totally unwarranted, totally viscious attack on exmarine (which was pulled).

The speck in another's eye my friend.

I have seen you guilty as well as others on all sides. There was a story about dinosaurs that got hijacked by creationists and it was calm, peaceful, there was no backhanded jibes about creationists.

I thought I was about to enter the new FOX series "When Creationists Attack".

The problem for me is that any topic that discusses anything older than 6,000 years old, you feel to be fair game to hijack into a religious thread. I understand and appreciate your beliefs, but some times it gets tiring to have to divert the thread to placate you.

Sometimes a dinosaur is just a dinosaur, and not an attempt by people to belittle your beliefs. I am waiting for a group of evolutionists to try to hijack a "Pray for" whomever thread by saying prayer is bogus superstition, and that it is unscientific.

I hope you can see the difference. It may be because I believe in evolution, and I am biased, but it appears to this observer that you are less tolerant of others than you expect them to be of you.

It's rather odd that the most recent thread that went into the backroom managed to accumulate almost 600 posts before someone came on and stirred things up by declaring that non-Christians could not be conservatives. When called on it he said it was a joke. If so, it was his first on the forum. Anyway, within a few more posts, the thread was in the backroom.

That thread has as one of its high points, your #14, which labels evolutionists as stupid, dishonest killers. The most interesting thing is that you didn't manage to start a flame war with this. Perhaps some of us showed restraint. It wasn't until someone else excluded Catholics from the list of Bible believing Christians that the flame war began.

I do recommend your post #14 as a model of how to attempt a flame war. Even if it failed on this occasion.
