You know, maybe we ought to not draw attention to some of the returnees; many of these guys were the most entertaining opponents we've ever crossed swords with. Many of the current crop of creos is bland and colorless, and simply parrot whatever their pastors or favorite creationist websites blather.

Yes, and it gets tiresome, but it's not all that bad. Some of them are bright, and they have the potential to learn. There's a huge difference between: (a) being misinformed, and therefore genuinely confused; and (b) being deranged, malevolent, hostile, venomous, and disruptive.

Those in the first group almost never get banned, at least not for their postings in these threads, although a few have challenged Jim Robinson in other threads and they're not with us any longer. Most of the second group sooner or later self-destruct, and find a home at websites with lower standards than this one.

Far be it for me to tell you to not argue with a guy who thinks parrots have psychic abilities, that Saturn once hovered over the North Pole, and that ASCII bats make great pets......
