If I say, "My bad. I made the mistake in believing the word of a Atheist.", then I have demonstrated an obstinate intolerance towards others who differ with me.
And If I said it I would own up to it and accept the word bigot describes my statement or apologize for making the statement in error.
There you go again. Evidently your memory is as long as your whatsis but that doesn't stop you from making whackjob statements.
Equating a typo to the misuse of a word is demeaning to those that do so.
And Jeff, unfortunately successful "debunking" is often in the eye of the beholder. And I think we all have our blind spots. I guess that's just human nature.
Thank you RWP and JA for writing!
That statement is correct but it does not describe my posting.
A dictionary is a "dual-use" technology--it can be used to check up on both meaning AND spelling.
Cheers!
Why do you care how or what a Christian thinks? You don't even know if I am a Christian since you have RAM problems.
For the record I am but you're a bigot who claims no Christian can be trusted. So I ask again, why would you encourage any person to act like a group of folks who can't be trusted? It maskes no logical sense, it is therefore nonsensical.
Apology accepted.
I didn't realize when I posted that I'd be piling on. ;)
Good luck.
Change CBS to WildTurkey and your tagline will be right on point.
Ah, now I remember. Your use of words brings it all back, now. I was afraid I had you confused with another but there is no mistaking your master of words.
Perhaps you shoud read the thread and see how senseless you post is.
Great, will you be sending the Romans and Lions?
Ho Ho Ho. I have never seen a fanatical creationist own up to any of his errors.
Is it your opinion that no Christians word can be trusted?
I think that WildTurkey is trying to assert that many Christians in these threads don't actually live up to typical Chrisitan moral standards - deception and dishonesty come to mind.
In these threads, Christians have been very dishonest in their attacks against the theory of evolution and evolutionists. It is true that many are just parroting some Christian website and are knowinglingly being dishonest, but the original author of the "information" knows better.
Again, there was an earlier post in this thread were a anti-evolutionist claimed that evolution was mathematically impossible due to her "population growth calculation". Another anti-evolutionist cheered her on for exposing evolutionist for "ignoring so many things".
Unfortunately, her own calculation comes up with a human population of 19 trillion if 6,000 is used for the number of years humans have inhabited the planet. The original poster still claims that she made some sort of point. The cheerleader has yet to address his mistake either.
Its one thing to make an honest mistake, but its quite another to hold up that mistake as proof after it has beyond doubt been shown to be in error. Quote mining is another deceptive and dishonest tactic that goes on repeatedly in these threads.
We all have problems when Muslims proclaim Islam to be a religion of peace yet fail to condemn suicide bombers. In the same way, Christians claim to have high moral values with truth being one of the cornerstones. Why then do other Christians in these threads sit back and not condemn fellow Christians that are dishonest or deceptive?
Interesting, that as a "Christian", you have no problem judging me and bearing false witness against me; particularly since you have been twice admonished for not reading the rest of the comments for which you would see the whole story.
It's "Chritians" like you that give Christianity a bad name.
Jackson is a hopeful monster.
I didn't consider your post "piling on". It was thoughtful, courteous and well worded and deserved my full disclosure response.
Why would ID continually "degrade" our genes resulting in shorter lifespans? Seems like ID would be improving as he went along?
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!
Is it any wonder that "liar" is the number one phrase to describe the anti-evos?
