Thus your question does not apply to the theory of evolution.

They aren't arguing against the theory of evolution, they are arguing against that evil, nasty Darwinism, and those evil, nasty Darwinists to support it.

What is Darwinism, you ask? That is a deliberately loaded term used by creationists to include all scientists who disagree with them. You can't properly hate a group until you can come up with some suitably derogatory name for them.

Never mind that the theory of evolution has been advanced by 150 years of testing and a vastly increased knowledge base, its still all "Darwinism" to them.

Sort of like anti-Guliani-ism?

Sorry. I get irritated by name calling and jihads of all types.

Evolutionists should have dumped Darwin decades ago when it became apparent that his hypothesis was falsified. But Darwin was a god to the true believers, which put them into a position of defending the indefensible.

Kind of like the "Cretard" label that is thrown around on your website.

"You can't properly hate a group until you can come up with some suitably derogatory name for them."

So --- to tone down the [ahem] discussion, then labeling those whom disagree with some point of view or another, should be avoided?

That is, unless one's aim is to express hatred, albeit as daggers, at first hidden among what argument is otherwise reasonable.

We've all seen plenty of that sort of behavior around here. Those portions of the going-ons, never fail to bring more heat than light, regardless of who is wielding the blades.

Darwinism is the ideology associated with the scientific theory and only to a limited extent based on it.
