Science teaches us to persevere and never give up. It is our duty to try to inform the public. We are in an age where superstitions are on the rise. Where religions foment hate instead of love and acceptance. Where conspiracy theories are gaining a foothold (Chemtrails, etc.). We have a creationism museum now and God knows what tomorrow? Such superstitions are being imposed onto science class in our schools. We have people blowing up people in the name of religion.

All the above have a root cause (money and politics) and the public is the victim.

I say we stick to our guns; after all there have been the rare cases where here in CF people have been persuaded to see the folly of their creationist views.

I say forgive him! After all it is the Christian thing to do! (no irony intended. I speak in earnest)
I have no plans to report him.
AV, you burning the midnight oil
For a Greek, I'm highly-impressed with your command of the English language.

Idioms, phrases, contractions ... even leaving "are" off at the beginning of your sentence is impressive.

(But then, I impress easily. )

Thank you my good man! I trust that any future "head banging" between us will be seen by you as honest debate?

You're out of line.

In what way?

I've never seen you make a valid scientific argument, or any argument that you can show applies to reality. And from what I have seen, the vast majority of your posts are just counting. And I've also seen you use your huge post count as though it meant that your points were valid. Doesn't seem out of line to me.

well, you tell me. Why should I have a discussion with you?
If it's to discuss science, you're barking up the wrong tree.

You can get all the science you want off of Google.

If it's to try and persuade me to abandon my beliefs in favor of science, you're going to get a reality check in how faith works.

Here you go, newbie.

All you had to do is ask.

This gentlemen is why creationists fear science.

They fear that by accepting science their faith will be in question or worse they will loose it all together. Little do they know that they need not fear science; for science does not delve into their spirituality.

AV, is your faith so weak as to fear a tool? Science is just a tool that allows us to better understand the physical world. Truly I say unto you; "fear not the path of scientific erudition for here there be no dragons!"

On the contrary.

Name me one button I can't push, or one lever I can't pull because I'm a creationist working side-by-side with an evolutionist.

Creationists enjoy using the fruits of science while dismissing the principles governing science. This is tantamount to one claiming to be a Christian but denouncing Jesus.

AV, you simply cannot continue dismissing science while enjoying its fruits; you may be branded a hypocrite!

Perhaps the Antichrist will put an end to Christian hypocrisy ... ya think?

Then scientists can dance in the streets like Muslims on 9/11.
