Prove that your mention of Johnson was nothing more than attempt at self-aggrandizement.

Right after you "prove" that you're not a serial killer.

Hint: "Proof" is a very difficult thing to provide. Try restating your request in a more sensible manner, with more modest goals, and in a less confrontational way.

In short, you're *still* behaving like an ass. And yes, I do at times myself (mostly as a result of responding-in-kind), but it's not *all* I do on these threads, unlike (*cough*) some people. In years past you at least *attempted* to discuss the topic. Lately, though, all I've seen you do is lob terse, snottily-worded stink-bombs into these discussions.

Why bother?

You make a claim and then qualify it with the equivalent of "the dog ate my homework." You can't have it both ways: You can't sing the praises of proof, evidence, and the scientific method while suggesting we believe you had an on-line debate with Philip Johnson but you forgot to save a copy and can't give us the link.

It's an arrogant double standard-- not unlike the one that says creationists question evolution because they are ignorant but evolutionist question creation because they are intelligent.
