The fact that Newton was "in awe of the Creator" is an argument from authority (which Newton actually isn't in this case) and is a logical fallacy.

And when evos can't win an argument any other way, everything becomes a *logical fallacy*.

"And when evos can't win an argument any other way, everything becomes a *logical fallacy*."

Not only that, but the idea that they would object to the "argument from authority" is laughable. That's their primary argument.

How many times have you heard them resort to the claim that the scientific "consensus" is on their side? That is precisely the "argument from authority."

...and most logical fallacies have absolutely nothing to do with formal logic. They're simply made up by the skeptical community. Trust me...I've spent enough time with them to know this firsthand.

By the way, if it means anything, I want to commend you on how you handle yourself on this forum.
