I am going to bed rather than jump in this one. gore3000 has gotten to the point where he can whup up on five evos at once without any help. They used to get the better of him, but not lately. I wonder if that makes any evos nervous?

I do have one question though. You guys who are so quick to equate IDers with the Taliban, do you then accept the MUCH stronger link between yourselves and communist and nazi ideals? If we are = the Taliban because we agree that God (though a different God with a very different nature and Holy Book) created living things then WHY are you evos not = Nazis and commies? You all believe that THE VERY SAME evolutionary forces are responsible for all living things. Hmmmmmm?

<sigh> he's so tiresome, it's not really worth the effort. Maybe if he proved to us that he finally understands the difference between a "gene" and a "genome", a duck and a duckbill platypus, etc. etc. then maybe. But until then, why bother (yet again)?

I for one am not trying to equate creationists with the Taliban. Just pointing out the poverty of the "God-believers moral, atheists immoral" argument.

I'll give the Protestants one thing: The idea that each of us has the capability to decide for ourselves what the Bible really means eventually led to political systems where different religions/philosophies have to compete fair & square in a free market of ideas. If it wasn't for the Reformation, we'd have lots of officially Catholic countries - probably just as free & safe & prosperous as all those officially Muslim countries are today.

Thank Jefferson for the separation of church & state!

... do you then accept the MUCH stronger link between yourselves and communist and nazi ideals?

Absolutely goofball statements like this deserve my special rebuttal links, with the same kind of thinking, but in reverse. Look what creationism will do:
IS GOD A COMMUNIST? chapter & verse quotes from the holy bible.
SODOMY AND THE CLERGY. Supernaturalists exposed as pederasts, perverts, boy molesters, rapists, and murderers.
SWAGGART, A FALLEN CREATIONIST Remember this creationist?

And here's the truth about communism and evolution:
Trofim Denisovich Lysenko This guy, not Darwin, Was Stalin's biologist.

Sleep can often overcome delusions.

No amount of sleep can overcome a delusion this deep.
