Well, unless someone can point to this being already in existence, I hereby propose Lowther's Law:
"Any debate on evolution vs. creationism will, sooner or later, produce the claim by the creationist side that the evolutionist is doomed to Hell."
The debate should at that point be considered ended, as no further rational discussion can likely be had.
Does this Law already exist and have a name?

Does this Law already exist and have a name?I don't know but it does seem self-evident. But I think we should add Danny's Precursor to Lowther's Law, as well as Danny's Exceptions to Lowther's Law.
"Most debates on evolution vs. creationism will, sooner or later, produce the claim by the evolutionist side that God cannot be known or is not known, thereupon resulting in Lowther's Law" - Danny's Precursor to Lowther's Law
"Any debate on evolution vs. creationism will, sooner or later, produce the claim by the creationist side that the evolutionist is doomed to Hell." - Lowther's Law
"It should be noted that the creationist side acknowledges two exceptions to Lowther's law.
- 1) there are Christians who know Jesus but have been fooled into believing evolution. These are still saved.
- 2) The evolutionist can always accept Jesus anytime up to and including the day he dies. This might not cause the instantaneous rejection of his evolutionist beliefs, but he will still be saved."

Does this Law already exist and have a name? Haven't heard of it. There's Godwin's Law, according to which invoking Hitler or Nazis to attack your opponent results in an automatic loss. I suppose condemning your opponent to hell could be covered by a corollary.
