Actually I posted it because I thought it was funny how you guys 'band together' and I decided to post a funny image about it.

...a "funny image" that was only "about it" because it had been DISHONESTLY PHOTOSHOPPED to appear to be about people who support evolution, when in fact the original image had nothing to do with it. And you got caught at it. Deal with it like man -- if you're able.

Why don't you lighten-up and get a life, dude.

I enjoy myself immensely on these threads, and I do have a life, "dude". You folks seem like the bitter ones, railing about the "scientific conspiracy" to "suppress the truth" about how the Earth is only a few thousand years old and all that.

I have never seen anybody spend so much time defending a particular world-view as you, Ichneumon.

All I defend is the truth, when it is falsely attacked. Almost every one of my posts concerning evolutionary biology was in response to someone else first posting an attack on it or misrepresentation of it. So if If you guys will stop "spending so much time" attacking science and telling lies about it, I could spend less time correcting you and more time doing other things. So how about it?

Maybe it's time for a break.

Go right ahead. That would be really refreshing.

You're not winning this battle. You realize that, right?

No, actually. Nor am I going to allow you folks to "win" by default. As long as you keep spewing misrepresentations, I'll be here to keep pointing out how dishonest and/or incompetnt you're being, and what a disservice you're doing to both the conservative movement, and to educational standards in this country.

Try a new hobby.

I have many hobbies. This is one of them. But again, if you folks would give up *your* hobby of spewing lies about science, we could *all* spend more time on other pursuits.

Get out of the house/apt and try something new.

I type at 120wpm. I can do this *and* still have enough free time to "get out of the house".

That's great. The truth according to Ichneumon.

All I ask is that you leave your personal vendettas against anyone who questions evolution at the door when you come in and stick to what you're best at: explaining science to people in layman's terms. (which we all appreciate). I must say, though, that it's sad that someone with so much knowledge has to sprinkle bits of vitriol into his/her writings. It's *so* Talkorg-like. Furthermore, that vitriol drives Creationists (who make up the majority of our Party, I might add) and others away from this forum. It is not the Creationists, ID'ers, agnostics, etc. that are hurting conservatism.

So if If you guys will stop "spending so much time" attacking science and telling lies about it, I could spend less time correcting you and more time doing other things.

Many of us who question evolution *love* science and the wonders of this world. Is it wrong to question evolutionist dogma?
