"First rule of holes:

Stop digging.

You are really sounding foolish and like a truly nasty piece of work, far from the detached science expert you feign to be."

Second rule of holes. Don't try to talk about things you are not willing to defend.

BTW, I never pretended to be an expert. I DO expect people who make statements to be willing to back then up.

Stop acting like a silly ass.

Is this so hard to understand?

I have back them up, ad nauseum. I posted to my friend, stating I had an opinion but didn't want to discuss them. When you decided to comment on my post to my friend, and started right off the bat being obnoxious, I told you that I don't want to state my opinions about evolution because of people like you who are obnoxious, ad nauseum. You have proven my point over and over and over again. In effect, YOU have backed up the reason why I won't post what I specifically believe about evolution.

And you still haven't posted anything I've said about what I SPECIFICALLY BELIEVE ABOUT EVOLUTION.

Lakeshark knows what I specifically believe about evolution, because I told him. Lakeshark, do you see what I told you on this thread.............anywhere?

"Suggestion: If you want to debate something, be honest about it, and non-insulting. "

Tell that to nicmarlo who made specific statements she wasn't willing to defend. I was willing to debate; she wasn't.

"You're coming off like a halfcocked hothead who thinks nicety applies to everyone but them. "

And you're coming off as a know-nothing blow hard who is in over his head.

"Judging from your behavior, I'm more man that you could ever be." (nicmarlo)

Are you coming out? :)

[nicmarlo]

I meant to ping you to my post #305

Carguit, you're the one in over your head.
you contradicted yourself and you're not getting the hint.

[nicmarlo]

hint: in a dictionary, besides the word man, how you act is not in the definition.

[nicmarlo]

I was willing to debate; she wasn't.

DING DING DING DING DING It took that long for you to finally admit that I wasn't lying about that?

That' a lie, you responded to me with a specific comment about how scientists who question evolution are not allowed to publish. That you are too much of a coward to defend that statement is a fact.

"In effect, YOU have backed up the reason why I won't post what I specifically believe about evolution."

You have posted this; why are you so scared to restate it?

" And you still haven't posted anything I've said about what I SPECIFICALLY BELIEVE ABOUT EVOLUTION."

You said it is all theory and speculation. That nobody was there. Then you said that anti-evolution scientists aren't allowed to publish. Are you backing away from this?

[CarolinaGuitarman]

"Carguit, you're the one in over your head."

You're the one defending a coward who makes statements she refuses to back up.

[Dimensio]

Why don't you bother someone who has clearly stated, from the beginning, they WANT TO ENGAGE IN A DISCUSSION REGARDING EVOLUTION rather than continue to harass someone who has state, at the outset, they DO NOT WISH TO and has given nothing but reasons WHY THEY DON'T WISH TO?

If you don't wish to engage in discussion, then why are you here? To naysay and then rant and rave when people actually suggest that you support your claims with evidence?

[CarolinaGuitarman]

"hint: in a dictionary, besides the word man, how you act is not in the definition."

Is that your response to your inability to defend your statements? lol

Make up your mind, and buy a clue.

[Darksheare]

"Is that your response to your inability to defend your statements?"

You evidently missed that she does believe in evolution.
You are SO bent on fighting with somebody that you've missed what was said to you.

[CarolinaGuitarman]

This is the umpteenth time I have asked a creationist to back up their statements with the same response: nothing. How do they expect anybody to take them seriously when they refuse to follow through? It's a mystery to me.

[CarolinaGuitarman]

"You evidently missed that she does believe in evolution. "

Her statements say the opposite. BTW, I thought she didn't make any stand on evolution (according to her). Where am I to think she does believe in evolution? When she says that anti-evolution scientists are not allowed to publish? Please show where she backs evolution.

[Darksheare]

How about you fix your contradiction:

First of all, I am not a liar. Secondly, I never said "scientists who question evolution are not allowed to publish." You said that.

"In effect, YOU have backed up the reason why I won't post what I specifically believe about evolution." You have posted this; why are you so scared to restate it? Duh, I posted that. Scared to restate what? Why I won't post what I specifically believe about evolution? I'm not scared...I've said it at least a half a dozen times: you're obnoxious, as are most who post on these threads. Remember me saying that, over and over again? That's being scared, repeating myself a hundred times?

" And you still haven't posted anything I've said about what I SPECIFICALLY BELIEVE ABOUT EVOLUTION." You said it is all theory and speculation. That nobody was there. Then you said that anti-evolution scientists aren't allowed to publish. Are you backing away from this?

I didn't say that "anti-evolution scientists aren't allowed to publish." You did.

I did say NOBODY WAS THERE. I'm not backing away from that. Unless you're now going to claim you were. I did say it's theory. Are you going to claim it's fact? I was always taught evolution was a theory, not fact. And what, specifically, did I say I believe about evolution? Nothing, to you.
