Baptists are among the Protestant groups that forced Evolution down the throats of everyone else ..... Evolution is very much a religious dogma rather than sound science. So Evolution is a religious dogma promoted by churches. Gotcha.
I have embarrassed Professors by having more command of their area of expertise than they have. I'll never be afraid of my opponents. I have defeated them thousands of times before and will probably do it thousands of times again. Most of the time it is so unchallenging mentally, I get quite bored.
So you're a professional Creationist. Anyone who can afford to get into discussions "thousands of times" must be doing this for a living. Or perhaps you're independently wealthy and hang out on multiple college campuses for fun?
In any event, as a professional, you wouldn't have any motivation to acknowledge the "other side" and thus loose your occupation. So I'll take anything you say with a serious grain of salt.
However, always remember the loudest advocates of Evolution typically have the least amount of knowledge about science.
Well, the deacon of the church that taught our retreat class that "there was no conflict between Genesis and Evolution" was a Science Professor at the local University. Pardon if I follow my previous point and take such a statement with that grain of salt.

I too find it amazing the way he can warp his brain to ignore all evidence and just keep shoveling that same old creationist horsesh!t with such abandon.

Kind of proves my point doesn't it?
Since I am not a "professional Creationist" as you accuse me of being, your accusation is pointless. Likewise, I'm under no obligation to accept the teaching of your Deacon.
My statement, "Baptists are among the Protestant groups that forced Evolution down the throats of everyone else" is based upon the Historical record and since History is one of my professions, I ought to know.
My statement, "Evolution is very much a religious dogma rather than sound science," is based upon my observations as a Historian, Scientist, Political Scientist/Analyst, and Philosopher.
The biggest problem for Darwinists is that Mendel's Law explains what Darwin saw better than Darwin. Indeed, Darwin puts the cart before the horse because he makes assumptions about a species based upon observation of a subspecies. Mendel was able to create subspecies, but his work also showed the tendency of a subspecies to return to its former state. Essentially, the opposite of Darwin's claim.
I'm not too concerned. Our friends haven't dealt with the A implies B, B implies C, C implies D, D implies E; A therefore E logic I offered them. Logic is another area of expertise. Nor have they dealt with Mendel's Law.
