If it had been just one gaffe, he could walk away unscathed and chalk it up to a typo.

Gaffes are the rule not the exception on these threads. And Gore3000 is not the only one that may be wrong and not admit it. Long ago someone attempted to draw me into an argument when they thought Gore3000 was wrong. I refused to comply and maintained my distance for some time until it became apparent that insult and derision were not going to abate. I then looked up a source with a position on the question and provided citations and a link. This source agreed with Gore3000. In that thread the argument ceased but the other side did not admit anything. Later in a different thread, I recall, the same argument against Gore3000 was brought up. BTW the source was Talk-origins.

That is one point, but the more relevant point is that "looking someone in the eye" and stating something derogatory is much more acceptable than constant "gossiping and sniping" with the same statements.

Yep!

I disagree with your premise, spelling errors aside. And the evos are positively eager to admit their mistakes and correct them compared to the average Young-Earth-Creationist.

But, back to the point, has the AntiPope excommunicator *EVER* admitted to a making any of these mistake? EVER? Or corrected them in subsequent posts?

Well, allow me to point put that since the answer is a big, fat *NO*, he's no better than a worthless piece of dog poop on these threads in that he engages, not in a discussion or a debate, but a unending and laughable repitition of the same old diatribe, again and again. In fact, he is a laughingstock, as the other posters have pointed out. Don't you think the YEC's (or the ID/IOT's that you sometimes count yourself among) would be better off without having to defend his ludicrous posts?

And, more to the point, why do you waste your time defending the indefensible? What does it gain you to defend such a laughingstock? Do you think it raises the tide on your side and floats your boat? Come on, spill it for all of us to see and evaluate.

Oh, I forgot ‘justified’ insults as opposed to… well, ‘justified’ insults….

No, you’re out of order!
You can’t handle the truth!

Any chance these guys will realize whom I’m talking about?

I guess there is no purpose to it all…

LOL!
