Somehow I sense a lack of respect in your attitude, an overdeveloped faith in your aptitude, and a downright emotional devotion to your cause, none of which sensibly addresses the point at hand.

I addressed all the points you made, and you haven't even attempted any sort of actual rebuttal. Is your case that weak?

Evolution is a philosophy that deserves a classroom distinguished from those devoted to empirical science.

I dare you to try to actually make a case for this assertion of yours, without once making a logical error, a sweeping overgeneralization you can't support, an error about how empirical science is actually done, repeating a misconception about evolutionary biology, stating something that is clearly contradicted by the evidence (and/or declaring there is no evidence for something when such evidence already exists), using a quote out of context, or telling a clear falsehood.

*I* can put forth evidence and argue a case for all the things I say on these threads -- can you? Do you even know how?

Feel free to actually make your case for a change without just making unsupported rants and accusations -- or run away from it, spewing more vitriol.

I'm tired of your empty accusations and your lame evasions. Time to show everyone whether you're actually the voice of reason on this issue you obviously believe yourself to be; or just a loudmouth who mistakes his prejudices for reality?

In short -- the time is overdue for you to put up or shut up.

Which will it be?

Statements such as this ring hollow from one who is so emotionally invested in a philosophy that no amount of reason can satisfy. I can understand why the panties would be in a wad when what is asserted as science is in truth a philosophy, and that philosophy in turn does not concur with objective reality. A misplaced faith such as this can only produce fruits of bitterness, resentment, and above all, egotism, all of which are amply demonstrated by dogmatic evolution cheerleaders who expect their philosophy to be received by one and all as unassailable fact.
