And fervid believers in evolution cannot handle the tiniest bit of criticism, one must swallow the entire cathecism whole or be labeled a crank, knuckle dragging uneducated drooling idiot - even "wicked".

There is no possibility of rational debate with evolution fundamentalists.

Of course there is, just show us the physical evidence supporting your point of view and we'll discuss it.

Ok, little jeremiah. Why don't you present us with a scientific critique of some aspect of the theory of evolution? I'll assume you understand what a "scientific" critique is and won't respond with Bible verses.

Yes, clearly we're irrational for being upset after being told that we're predisposed to rape and pillaging.

If you believe that, you clearly haven't read the Journal of Evolutionary Biology or the Journal of Classification, or Cladistics, or the Journal of Theoretical Biology, or Molecular and General Genetics or any of a couple dozen other scientific journals in, say, the past 150 years. They're filled with controversies and fights and criticisms of individual theories. Please, join the fights! But what you cannot criticize is the scientific method, and that's what the creationists and ID-proponents are doing.

Yes, I'm laughing at you.

I missed this one the first time through the thread.

You must not do much reading in science. Where do you think all the out-of-context quotes from scientists come from -- the ones that get posted on creationist web sites -- if they don't come from scientists criticizing their own and other's work?

The leading edge of science is always a battleground, and everyone would love to shoot down some cherished theory.
