Many to most of the scientists who became the early members of Darwin Central were banned from this site. Most were banned for supporting the theory of evolution.

FOTFLOL!

Most of them were banned for violating forum rules, vulgar, obscene accusations against creationists about their moral lives (there are still copies of some of those posts floating around the internet), defying the mods warnings about behavior, name calling, and asking to have their accounts nuked.

No one was banned for simply supporting evolution no matter how many times you say it or how much you wish it were so.

And I'd bet that most of the EVOS banned weren't really scientists either. You can't pretend that all the evos are scientists either because many of them are not.

Amazing on how someone who so prides themselves on being accurate are so willing to mis-represent the truth

Sorry mm -- that is just not true. Many or most were banned for their views on (read: understanding of) evolution -- including me. Yes, some were frustrated and resorted to snide retorts, but not even CLOSE to what they were met with. You have only to see E/S and wendy####s responses on THIS VERY THREAD. Those types of responses got many DCers banned. Creationists had immunity. Including you.

Revisionist history is not a good thing under any circumstance.

But, FWIIW, you were honest in your discussion and always tried to keep it on an objective level. Not so, many of your colleagues who just resort to name calling.

That would be an extremely safe bet. Most scientists are honest enough to admit that there is indeed a line between what is know and what is not know; what is science and what is not science; what can be tested and what cannot be tested. They won't stoop to levying personal attacks in order to defend their faith, and they won't call their faith "science".
