I know I am, but what are you?

You are an Al-taqiyya Creationist.

You’re really not very good at this.

Juvenile name calling? I'll leave that to the experts.

You have disgraced yourself and your side. Even GGG is embarrassed on your behalf.

You were dishonest, got caught in your clumsy dishonesty, then attempted a scriptural “Al-taqiyya” defense that it was somehow OK to lie to those who disagree with you.

I would say that it is you who is “not very good at this” after getting caught in a dishonesty and embarrassing your own side.

No, that's an honest assessment: You're really not very good at this.

To prove my point: You implied “nothing (I) say is to be trusted.”

I responded, “allmendream is a heterosexual.”

As I previously pointed out, you really aren't very good at this.

Run along.

I have outside evidence on that one, I don’t need to “trust” anything you say on the subject. I didn’t say “everything you say is the opposite”, child.

So, now we know that GGG doesn't tell me what to do, don't we ladies?

Of course, but GGG is not who you should be worried about.

Rev.21 [8] But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

I found this rather amusing; for what it's worth.

As we celebrate the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth, we await a third revolution that will see biology changed and strengthened. None of this should give succour to creationists, whose blinkered universe is doubtless already buzzing with the news that "New Scientist has announced Darwin was wrong". Expect to find excerpts ripped out of context and presented as evidence that biologists are deserting the theory of evolution en masse. They are not.

Nor will the new work do anything to diminish the standing of Darwin himself. When it came to gravitation and the laws of motion, Isaac Newton didn't see the whole picture either, but he remains one of science's giants. In the same way, Darwin's ideas will prove influential for decades to come.

Source.

The entire article is an interesting read (not the editorial, but the article sourced in the OP). I'd highly recommend it.

Well, look at the bright side.

Think of all the evolutionist bilge you weren’t able to spew all over this thread while I had you tied up in utter frustration, jerking your chain at my whim.

I used your sophomoric “gotcha” fetish to take you right out of the game.

You’ve been had.

So you lied deliberately in order to “yank my chain”?

I think my point was well served in showing the childishness, irrationality, dishonesty, and ludicrous attempts at scriptural justifications for the absurd that Creationists engage in.

Thanks for the brilliant performance as today's idiotic dishonest creationist. You may have even outdone ToGodBeTheGlory (who even metmom thinks is such an embarrassment that she joins speculation that the person is only pretending).

I’d thank you not to drag me into your petty feuding.

It was a courtesy ping because I mentioned you. No need for you to get involved, unless you feel some comic relief is needed.

I understand.

You guys are continually getting your butts kicked, so you've resorted to grammar, spelling, attribution and punctuation “food fights”.

I could see where you were headed and I decided to let you run right off the cliff.

I never responded to your initial accusation, so you decided, arbitrarily, to elevate it to “lying” status.

Then you went nuts lying about my (alleged) lie.

Thank you for the entertainment.

Nothing alleged about it, you actually engaged in an attempt at scriptural justification for lying. It was a lie that you posted, either yours or another, and as you will not disclose your source you own the lie.

Yes, thank you for first posting a (partial) Bible verse, no doubt, in an effort to “get” me.

I took it as an invitation to post lots and lots of scripture for you.

I trust you read it all very carefully and, even now, it is speaking to your heart.

I don’t want to “get” you, I just want everyone to know how you and your philosophically aligned ilk operate, with the attitude that you have a God given right to obfuscate and promulgate falsehoods. I have seen Creationists with some rather bizarre scriptural interpretations, but that one takes the cake.

scriptural interpretations

I'm very please to honor your request for more scripture.

Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Corrected: (So you can read this much needed Bible verse twice.)

John 8:44
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies

Ah, the godpel of John!

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.

John 1:1-5
