The quote where I used ‘proof’:
You cite a single home page as ‘proof’ that Creationists “almost invariably” reject HIV as the cause of AIDS. Is that all there is?
Since you object to ‘proof,’ I will rephrase: You cite a single home page as a demonstration that Creationists “almost invariably” reject HIV as the cause of AIDS. Is that all there is?
Can you now bring yourself to answer, or must you find another objection?
”conflating creationists with Christians”
I’ve stated that, by definition, Christians are Creationists. Does your Boyarin superiority demand that you correct me on everything, or else you fail to maintain the pretense of your Alpha Male status? Earlier you seemed to agree with me. Now you find objection?
”so why don’t you tell us what Thomas Aquinas meant when he said... ”
So why don’t you take care of a number of items you’ve left unanswered:
You sent me a picture of Page 8 – Jesus and the Dinosaurs, from the Beginner’s Bible Coloring Book. So I can get a feel for what the book is like, do you have page 7 and page 9 you can send? (or a website where I can peruse the entire book)
Besides the above, do you have a source for the other fascinating pictures you sent to me (second request)?
And the item above where you gagged on the word ‘proof,’ although it’s a perfectly appropriate word in the context used.
I believe in ‘give & take.’ You seem to want to play ‘you demand - I comply.’ Like any other arrangement would demean your station.
On your Aquinas quote. Do you have a source you can cite, so I may go check context? Or did you just pick it off a ‘bag of quotes’ site where they don’t even give a source? The quote seems vaguely familiar, yet it doesn’t quite read like Aquinas. Maybe it’s the translation.
In any event, if you want a response, you have some catching up to do.
Other than putting words in peoples mouths and quibbling over the common definition of words it seems you are all out of arguments.
I stated my opinion that many Creationists are also believe a lot of other kooky things, and my evidence for this is the opinions by the Creationist posters on this forum, as well as all the other Creationists I have talked with or read about over my lifetime.
If you find their views embarrassing I suggest you take it up with them and perhaps tell them you think their off the wall views are a discredit to the Creationist movement.
I said that creationists almost invariably have other kooky views not supported by evidence, and that AMONG those views was HIV-AIDS denial.
But again, if you are embarrassed by their views, I suggest you take it up with them.
