You think after BamaKennedy and his crew literally ‘enforce’ that ‘scientific methodology’ some of these will start crying foul. They set this junk scientific methodology in motion, and even got the supremes to give them so called standing....

And once they chased God out of their halls of worship called public school, they just might get to find out what public option means in their literal world.

See now for some it is going to be to little too late when their research is no longer fit for survival.

Hello Ira! I can’t hear you, did I miss your reply? Muller’s letter to Stalin makes great reading!

If you don’t like threads about God or creationism then my advice to you is to stay OFF of them or otherwise QUITYURBELLYACHIN!!

Ok, you win on that one. Consider my participation in this rapidly deteriorating "discussion" concluded.

How else can a person answer a poll about what they have heard of except by self identification?

For "heard of," probably no other way. For "know something about"--well, it depends on whether the pollsters care whether what they know is accurate. A series of questions could weed out the ones who would say they know something but really don't. I doubt these pollsters did that, though, so the conclusion that "the more they know, the less they want" is unwarranted.

You and a crevo-load of others that have voted with their feet — and their money — to move away from crevoloonyville.

The Fairtax loonys weren’t paying enough per post so you moved to crevo central, eh?

Microevolution is a term used by crevos to cover the fact that they are Microcephalics.

Microevolution is a term - when used by creationists - that is the evolutionary equivalent of the belief that the mechanism you use to walk from your bedroom to the kitchen is insufficient to get you from New York to Los Angeles.

Bad analogy. I would say that just because I can walk to my kitchen does not mean that I can walk to Australia.

Microevolution helps determine if my children will have red hair. But determining that a land animal can walk into the sea and, over time, evolve into a whale is to see genetic change on a very different level. I believe you see it as "the same thing, only more of it" and I see that as a substantial logical leap. I don't believe we have proof that you can get there from here.

I’ve already summarized it in the past and I was ignored and promptly ridiculed by a YEC supporter. I’m not going to waste my time anymore.

I ask that exact same question to them and they change the subject. Then they insult me again. Therefore, I’m going to assume that young Earth creationists believe that humanity was made from clay pots like in the African creation myths. What else am I supposed to assume?

And there are plenty of us that think these threads DON'T qualify for News/Activism. What makes you special?

Same thing that makes YOU think that YOU'RE so special that YOU think that YOU have the right to determine where threads are placed.

Don't you see your hypocrisy in your pitching a fit because you don't think that I should have my way about where threads are placed and yet demand your way?

These threads aren't on this forum because I think they should be. They're here because JR thinks they should be. It so happens that my position on the placement of these threads is the same as his.

If you don't like it, take it up with HIM. He calls the shots around here.

I pity you. You demonstrate a real inability to deal with reality.

Thank you for your reply. I believe I understand your view form reading the quote. The quote maintains evolution is a theory and it is not clear to me if you or the quote believe that evolution is provable. thanks

“maybe a lot of us are just sick of these stupid “creationists vs. evolutionists” threads”

For now it is still a free country and you are free to not click on the article or post on the thread.

Evolution is not something to believe in, it is a matter of accepting the available evidence

If you take “micro-evolution” has we have observed and give it 4.5 billion years you will end up with the diversity of life we see today.

Lets take a look at the wolf, if man can turn a wolf into a Chihuahua in a few hundred years, just imagine what nature can do given billions of years.

You are presenting an Argument from personal incredulity. Just because it is something that we cannot understand is not proof that God did it.
