deteriorating signal-to-noise ratio placemarker

It's really amazing how quickly a thread can degenerate when those who can't discuss science show up. Ditto for those who can discuss science but who choose to lurch back to the Nazi name-calling mode.

What I find interesting is how those posters who previously used to discuss science from the YEC side seem to have tossed in the towel. Thus, while DittoJed2 was going through the 'no transitional fossils'...'genome shows design'...'radiometric dating doesn't work' litany, there were a couple who would egg her on, but hardly anyone jumped in on her side. However, when it reached its inevitable 'evos are Nazis' conclusion, and she gave up, we had the chorus of 'Christians are being silenced' complaints, from posters who had been silent all along. Gosh, if you were disturbed at a 10 vs. 1 dispute, and were sympathetic to the 1, wouldn't you jump in? Well, maybe or maybe not, depending on how brave or scared you were.

I'm wondering if some posters are coming to the realization that you can't sustain a scientific argument for YEC, and are genuinely at a loss how to proceed.
