" And I'm sure you would agree with me that VI is intellectual cowardice and tantamount to running away...."

No, I wouldn't agree. Ignoring someone who keeps posting to you or about you is not the same at all with running away from posts you just made to someone. There are only a few people whose posts I ignore, because they are not worth the effort. When I talk about cowardice I am talking about someone who posts to you a long list of complaints against evolution, then, when these complaints are answered, they say they don't have to answer you and run away. I have not done this, and people who use *virtual ignore* don't do this. It's more than cowardice, it's plain rude and not very Christian. When we VI someone, we COMPLETELY ignore them, including not posting to them in the first place.

"I couldn't agree more... I've noticed that trick being used often on these threads..."

And yet, you have not said anything against the creationists doing it. Very interesting.

Would it have been not "very interesting" if I had piled on at about post 317 or so with something like "yeah all spam sucks" or something similar before I posted 318?..

If you will please recall my comments were not about spam in general, but your description of it as spam and the fun you were having trying to discredit his argument by noting he posted the same thing over and over.

I really found it funny that you were having this discussion with someone who posts the exact same thing on every single CREVO thread. And I must assume you must agree with everything in it as I don't recall seeing your refutations each time it gets posted.

This is just semantics and you know it.... We both recognize cowardice when we see it....

Running away from a post right away or putting someone who has handed you your hat on VI are both cowardly acts...

VI for abuse, I'll give a pass...

What I'd really like to know is where this came from...

When we VI someone, we COMPLETELY ignore them, including not posting to them in the first place.

Is there some conspiring to censor going on here? ;) (\tinfoil mode
