Sorry, my bad.

I love Red Dwarf and got a good laugh from the video. The other comment was my rant about being offended broadcast to the ether. :arrgh!:

I think maybe chainsaws on the ends of the spears? :hmmm:

Is real debate with creationists even possible?
They have fixed immovable views which they cling to even after their own evidence completely trashes their view.
Skybird answers the second part well....
"We also should never have dragged Northkorea's claim to have found dragon eggs in their mountains and to have spotted unicorns in their forests here, because just to mock was cheap, low and petty. We better mock their news in a forum about Northkorean news."

As for this post.

I wonder - what kind of a storm would it have created if it had been some other religion that had come up with such a claim?
No need to wonder, muslim creationists got their views torn apart as rubbish in exactly the same way on this forum, it was easily done as they are exactly the same views.

I've seen enough Muslim/Islam ideas&actions bashing on these forums too, just a reminder.

And lately the best result they have had has been a huge wave of yawning and sinking into oblivion.

That's mostly laughing and making fun of the OP and it are usually the same suspects over and over again and those are usually the more *cough* serious *cough* topics. But when a Iranian Imam say earthquakes are caused by women wearing bikinis it's all for good laughs right? Then I don't hear anyone say to take their mockery and cheap shots somewhere else or think it is sad to see a religion is trashed in this manner.

Fair point, I was indeed thinking of the former kind and not the latter.

Be fair, a few posters are regularly told to take their religion bashing crap back to stormfront.
Then again there are people who complain that ripping the piss out of neo nazi white supremacists is an attack on Christianity because the dumb racist scum just happen to call themselves "christian".:hmmm:

I suppose Phelps and his baptist church makes an interesting contrast.
Everyone rips into that, a few will make the point of freedom of speech but you don't get the :wah::wah::wah: they are picking on christians again comments.
It illustrates well that both the creationists(of any of the big3) and the WBC are easily ripped into, not because they claim they are of a certain faith but purely on what they say.

Of course. All kinds of bashing goes on here. Even threads like this one serve a purpose of sorts. I was speaking directly to people who have nothing more to add than "These people are all morons!" That kind of post serves no purpose at all.

If someone is making these claims here, fine. Show them they're wrong and why. Just saying "You're an ignoramus!" serves no purpose at all, especially when the claim wasn't even made here, but imported from another website.

On the other hand the people turning the "herding dinosaurs" claim into a joke about the best way to do said hunting are indeed serving a purpose. Humor is always a good thing.

Right on, Steve! :up:

"Bashing" one person's opinion does happen. Its when one person has a view, and suddenly that one idiotic view is used to bash an entire group - who may or may not agree with the original idiot - is where I start having issues.

It's like saying Kim Jong Un is a fat idiot. OK, maybe he is - but that doesn't mean that every North Korean is a fat idiot. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a real idiot too - but that doesn't make every Iranian one. Barbara Boxer and Sarah Palin are considered moronic by some people, but that doesn't mean that every person that agrees with some things they say are all morons either.

The whole "I suspect the same technique would work on creationists" is lumping anyone who says they believe in "creationism" (whether in 7 days or 7 billion years) as worthy of being killed. That kind of thing simply does not belong here at Subsim.com - like it or not.

People here don't have to agree with someone, or a group of people. But the rules are clear - they do need to be generally respectful - and grouping folks together and talking about a way to kill them because they hold some specific belief or common view - does not qualify.

I think you're taking what Andy said a bit too seriously. :roll:

Once santa has gone the way of all tyrants, under the redistribution of welf program you are entitled to a small share in one of twelve reindeers.

Umm...would that be a share of ownership or a portion of the meat?

Please try to be more specific when making these offers. Official documentation would be nice.

[edit] Just so you know, I'm good either way.

You lack vision young man.
Given the superb speed record of these fabulous beasts they shall be racing reindeer.
It works well in the new age of equality as since they all run at the same speed there will be twelve winners in every race.

For those of you who haven't seen it, I highly recommend you watch this documentary:
http://i43.tower.com/images/mm112276...-cover-art.jpg

My favorite part is when Ben Stein confronts Mr. Evolution himself, Richard Dawkins, and ends up leaving him stammering and stuttering through his replies. Despite it's outward appearance, this is a very compelling documentary. It may not only change your opinion about Evolution, but a great many other alleged facts that the scientific community purports as truth. Science these days, it seems, is becoming more like a religion than a field of study.
If you subscribe to Netflix, you can watch it as a streaming movie on your PC or Laptop.

Its not surprising the ADL condemned it for its ludicrious leaps of "logic"
About as entertaining and as a credible as a Micheal Moore "documentary"

I don't care if it claims that God made life without Evolution, if it has that in it, 10 out of 10!
