Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
I am now exiting this thread.
It was designed to show forth the circular reasoning of the evolutionist. Such has been achieved, and also again high-lighted in my last 2 lengthy posts (I believe 244, 245).
The evolutionists have not, in over 25 pages, answered the question.
They have only begged it.
Creationist tactic #193.c.25 When ad hoc, ad hominem, outright lies, and straw men fail, proclaim victory and exit stage left with your tail between your legs.

A: What's 1 + 1?
B: 2
A: But what's 1 + 1?
B: Er. 2
A: Sounding a little confused aren't you? You can't answer 1 + 1?
B: I told you, it's 2!
A: No you're getting angry at me because I'm smarter. You don't even know 1 + 1.
C: Yeah! B is so stupid! You rock A!
B: 1 + 1 is 2
A: Since you can't answer I'm going home.

Who knows, this board has been shut down and turned into a tea party.
Would you like one lumps or two with your tea?
Would you care for a biscuit to go with that?

Funny I thought you might. The fact you had not appeared in about 48 hours after my argument analysis suggested you had popped off to do a bit of quick reading to see if you could find a flaw. Didn’t think you would be able to.

Running out of ideas? Not surprised there is, as far as I can tell, no fallacy left unused. You didn’t have the Guinness book of records in your sights did you?

Actually it was answered at least 3 times by me alone. You then expanded the question (Ooooh look the Fallacy of Changing meanings! You squeezed that in as well, well done).
And once more;
STOP MISUSING THE TERM “BEGS THE QUESTION” its driving me nuts. The term you are looking for is;
“they have used a tautologies argument”.
To Beg a question means to present a statement is such a way that a question naturally comes to mind. let me use an example;
“It is extensively believed that Lord Byron did not actually write the Novella “The Vampire””
This begs the question,
“The who did write the Novella “The Vampire?””
However
“Lord Byron wrote the Novella “The Vampire” because he is the author credited with writing it” is a tautologies statement.
Please learn the difference. I hope that is clear.
I'm racking my brain to remember the other guy who kept misusing logic and words like irony/parody in the way colossians was. Nathan Poe might remember....
