I further assert that it has been a common “technique” on the evolutionist side of the debate to call their opponents “liars.” That such a technique would be used at all suggests there is weakness on your side of the debate, i.e. a person doesn't throw spitwads if he has ammunition.

Excuse me? Within the last day I've seen the fake "Darwin recanted on his Deathbed" yarn, and I've seen false claims that there are no transitional fossils. It would behoove the creationists and ID-ists to police their own, tell their compatriots that by making claims that even AiG has disowned they are lowering the credibility of all anti-evolution activists.

It would behoove the evolutionists to observe the conduct of the Catholics on this Religion Forum who repeatedly, patiently, lovingly must explain again for the umpteenth time why they are not idol worshippers. Their behavior in the matter is the powerful testimony for their faith.

Conversely, creationists who seek to convince evolutionists without patience and love, pounding them over the head with Bible verses and bizarre conjecture are by their own behavior a powerful testimony against their faith.

And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all [men], apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And [that] they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. - 2 Timothy 2:24-26
