For starters, it is condescending. It assumes those whose opinions you are critical of are somehow not thinking individuals, that you are somehow smarter. It is less than a sophomoric attitude. It is, well, junior.

And yet there is evidence, even on this thread, that his statement was true. One side cannot seem to understand that the Theory of Evolution does not cover the origin of life.

Sounds like a disagreement over terms, something to be defined for the purposes of discussion. Not something to start throwing spears over. If someone has not studied evolution to the point that you have, certainly they are not going to have the same handle on the terminology. Either you have to explain it or adapt your language to fit the discussion, make sure that everyone is talking about the same thing.

Actually, your bringing up the point of Evolution vs. the Origin of Life is a discussion I might find interesting. But not if one of the professors is going to start calling me names and telling everyone else I am some sort of fanatic because I don't get it.

Do you see my point?
