"one of the more blatantly dishonest .."

To behold the spectacle of a moral relativist using the word "dishonest" as if he is assuming that everyone should be outraged by that behavior - and would just automatically know that it's "absolutely morally wrong" to be dishonest, is hilarious!!!

This means that you recognize the fact that there are absolute moral truths that are true for all people in all places at all times and you expect others to know about them too.

Now....... where do these absolute moral truths come from .... hummmmmmm????

Ah, the old "end justifies the means" argument. "Mom! He's doing it too!" BTW, I'm not a moral relativist you two-dimensional liar. Sometimes people are a bit more complex than your comic book world allows. I'm pretty much a straight-laced Roman Catholic, and I find lying in the name of the Almighty abhorent. You're lucky blasphemy is the only unforgiveable sin, but for the sake of your soul I'd reconsider your tatics if I were you. You knew that quote was a straight-up lie, but you used it anyway. "Thou shalt not bear false witness" evidently means nothing to you.

Perhaps you should take off your propeller beanie and show some respect to your betters, Junior.

So this justifies him lying about a quote from Charles Darwin? This justifies him fabricating a quote from Wayne Carley?

Why is it that more often than not, creationists jump in to defend other creationists who have been repeatedly caught red-handed in a lie?

Both sides share an inescapable anthropic worldview and are not capable of knowing the real truth behind life, the universe and everything. Knowing something and believing something are different.

He blatantly lied and you're defending him. Interesting...

Stomping around pointing your finger at everyone yelling "out-of-context quote" or "liar", "liar" when Darwin's "beliefs" are accurately portrayed only makes you look foolish

"This justifies him fabricating a quote from Wayne Carley?"

You know better than that. Keep saying it and I'll keep proving it.

You see? His lies have been exposed, yet he continues to prance about here declaring victory and asserting moral superiority despite the fact that he continues to blatantly and repeatedly lie. And you defend this man?

[ The universe was created by chance events without ultimate purpose. Man is the product of impersonal time plus chance plus matter. ]

This caustic view must eat the heart out of the believers..
infecting all other views.. including political views..

How could it not do that.?. ultimately..

I don't know anyone who questions the laws of physics or astronomy or geology like they do evolution.

You cannot have been reading the crevo threads here very much then. Numerous Young Earth Creationists post here and if the opinion polls are anything to go by YEC is the position of a very sizable minority of the American population. YEC mandates the rejection of pretty much the whole of astronomy, cosmology, geology, paleontology, plate tectonics, archeology, atomic physics, oh yeah and biology.
