one contention at a time
The scatter gun approach to debate leads to fractured difficult to follow debates and often more heat than light.
Could you please try and slow down, present one challenge to human evolution, debate that until you have given all your arguments or your opponents concede. Then pick another. It makes things run a lot easier. And you won't need to post so many short fractured replies.
Thanks.

1hr break
I figure a quick break wouldn't be amiss. I appreciate they are all objections to human evolution, but different people will respond to different claims individually. If I open a thread and I see one person having separate discussions about SIV/HIV and immunity inheritance, musculo-skeletal development, another talking about relative number of hairs of humans and chimps, someone else about Biblical inerrancy and a final person talking about whales and whether they can breath underwater - I'm thinking the topic has lost focus.
So pick a direction and stick to it for a while. Make a quality argument for just one of your points, and rebut your opponents objections in detail, humiliating them. Don't fire off a bunch of claims, establish them one at a time and then conclude by listing how your opponents were unable to counter them.
Please don't reply to this post. Any objections can be raised in Report Discussion Problems Here 3.0. You have been suspended for just 1 hour, enough time to read the rules, and develop a good killer post.

Re: 48hr break
I don't want to hear anything else by anyone
I believe you. Take 48hrs to consider if you'd like to change that. Start by reading where I requested you don't reply to my post and advance from there.
If you return and when you do so, I am faced with making another moderation decision it will be to suspend you indefinitely.

Indefinite suspension issued
You are done full stop. Only a slight issue with the forum software is preventing me from changing your suspension status at the moment. Do not continue to register new user names. Feel free to contact the administrators if you feel hard done by.
