A discussion with these evo guys is never in good faith.

They are johnny-one-notes and Asberger-obsessives...and a good way to avoid them is to enjoy all the other interesting FR conservative arguments going on that do not concern evolution. But they tend to be nasty little Girley-Men bullies, so it's a kindness to warn other freepers who might get caught up in their IM-coordinated two-minute gangups.

I've noticed that lately they stick mostly to talking to themselves, which is a kindness. I wonder why it has to be a public chat, though? They need an audience for their high-five parties? Then again, It probably gets lonely herding sheep up on that mountain.

Thanks for the warning my friend and your fairly accurate assessment of the process. But this ain't my first rodeo...

They only talk amongst themselves nowadays because their secret handshake includes a signal for VI. </tinhat> Many of them throw a hissy fit and call troll when their adhominum, strawmen, suppressed evidence and hyperbole filled arguments are blasted out of the water. All the while feeding their E-trolls random bits of encouragement and even proudly including them on their ping lists to keep them rudely nipping away to discourage any would be C-poster who might actually be making a point on the subject.

It very obvious from this thread and others that many of them would rather embarrass their opponents in a "feeding frenzy" rather than agree to disagree or seek a graceful compromise.

It's hard to imagine the many of us who initially came to FR seeking common ground are treated with such disrespect and abuse by our so-called "conservative friends".

Thanks again for the post....
