If this were my website, I'd pull the thread and ban its poster. But it's not my website. Nevertheless, sitting in the News/Activism forum, this thread shows the very worst face of creationism to the world. At minimum, the thread should be moved to the blogger forum. It originated as an article from some blog, and the person who created the thread seems to flog the blog's URL with every post he makes. Also the URL of the blog is in that person's tagline. I thought we weren't supposed to use our posts to promote other websites.
If I were a troll from DU, I'd want to post threads like this on FreeRepublic. But if I cared about the reputation of FreeRepublic, this thread would be gone. Why does this thread continue to exist?
I don't know. Some of the more intelligent conservative lurkers out there might get the idea that it's embarrasing to hang around this kind of discourse and just drop the subject.
LOL one could say the same about Darwin Central.
Because there is a large segment of the population who know that life originated from another intelligence.
Of course. He is the blogger. Too bad we don't follow our own rules.
PH,
I pass up on lots of threads.
Go take a break and chill out. Ride a bike, read a book, watch a movie, play with the wife, make a pot of coffee, anything...
Dont get so worked up.
A profound question deserving a profound answer.
No zot.
This thread is a mirror of the idiocy we see on DU. I refer you to the collected works of PJ-Comix's DUmmie FUnnies.
Many Conservatives believe that threads such as this are actually helpful with respect to national politics. On the other hand, it offers no new material for most of the scientists I used to work with; they believe the GOP is anti-science. (To be sure, many of these scientists voted against Kerry though; there are few worse things than being anti-science, but Kerry slam dunked that.)
