That depends on the definition of the word "good". ;-)
Can anyone teach me to laugh online?
1. The full belly laugh - really important on Crevo Threads
2. The Snigger
3. The sarcastic guffaw
and any others you may come up with.
Where is Torquemada when you need him?
Religion is a survival adaptation similar to our other social adaptations. There would be no reason to assume it could not have a genetic factor.
However, there is also a great deal of influence in non-genetic factors including parenting, heritage, custom and peer pressure.
That was very nicely said. Thank you.
Oh??
Evolution is the religion of those who would elevate man above God.
I've never heard of one confirmed atheistic evolutionist attack abortion on demand.

It shows that you are an atheist trying to push your beliefs onto someone else
Lawyering must be important in the final exam. Along with equivocating.
He met it?
Yes he did, even though you're not honorable enough to ever admit it. You challenged:
Feel free to produce a few examples [...] Feel free to produce even one example.By your own admission in post #523, he provided at least *two*. He met your challenge. QED.
Here's another in case you still want to pretend that creationists *don't* often presume that evolutionists are necessarily atheists:
"Creationists are those who believe in God. Evolutionists are those who don't."
Look, the hole you stepped in is clear to everyone, and no amount of motormouthing by you is going to change that -- in fact, it's just going to make you look even more ridiculous.
He made the unremarkable statement that there is an "oft-repeated creationist lie that all who accept evolution are atheists". You've been on a lot of these threads, you KNOW that many creationists do jump to this false conclusion and make statements revealing that attitude. Your faux "astonishment" at this obvious fact fools no one. But nonetheless, in your misguided "circle the wagons" attempt, you challenged him to provide a "few" examples, or "even one", in an attempt to leave the implication that this sort of falsehood from creationists is actually so rare that digging out even a *single* example would be a Herculean task.
Unfortunately for you, he called your bluff and showed that it's not hard to list several definite examples, and several more showing variations on that same theme.
So rather than accept that your bluff fell flat, you ended up blustering about how a couple of definite examples (that constitutes the "few" you wanted to see, remember?) over a few months doesn't come close enough to "often", EVEN THOUGH YOU SIMPLY ASKED FOR A FEW EXAMPLES, PERIOD, AS IF YOU DIDN'T BELIEVE THEY EXISTED AT ALL, not in a specific timeframe.
Furthermore Dimensio specifically said that those examples were JUST the ones that HE PERSONALLY had responded to and were therefore in his own archives. So unless you want to try to claim that Dimensio's own personal archives are somehow a large fraction of all posts on all such threads, your WEASELING over the time spread of those posts is nothing but transparent hand-waving, and you're making a fool of yourself by trying to belabor it.
Then, of course, you immediately moved the goalposts AGAIN so you could weasel out, by ending your post with in effect, "even if you're right, so what?". Typical creationist behavior. (And how many examples would you like *me* to post of you and your creationist allies doing *that*? I'm ready when you are, son.)
Is that you Reiner?
Reiner Protsch von Zieten, a Frankfurt university panel ruled, lied about the age of human skulls, dating them tens of thousands of years old, even though they were much younger, reports Deutsche Welle.
Wow, what a childish non sequitur. Par for the course for you.
I'm thinking of a noun, and it begins with "A" -- can you guess it?
Give it up, you've become a parody of yourself.
Seconded.
Mr. Data has rocketed to the top of the list. I can find no reason, in light of his conduct on thisd and other threads, to pay any heed at all to ANYTHING that so dishonest a person could say.
LOL
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
The finger-alternation you get going that way is also the fastest typing many people ever do.
Heh! Racey didn't last for long in the top spot then?.... ;)
