I dont think Im well liked in here.
Hi CoolBeans
It's not as if your're not liked here; it's just that you're irritating when you post creationist PRATT's.
Following that you're normally not around to participate in your own threads.
So, before you start a thread, do some research. For example, go through the threads on this forum to see if your subject has been discussed before.
Also go to very reliable websites such as TalkOrigins to see whether a claim has been refuted before.
An Index to Creationist Claims
Claims neatly ordered according to subject on that website. Discussed extensively with references to scientific sources.
Look at the following quote from John Debyshire at
Page not found | National Review.
He explains very nicely why lots of people don’t like creationists:
quote:
I’ll also say that I write the following with some reluctance. It’s a wearying business, arguing with Creationists. Basically, it is a game of Whack-a-Mole. They make an argument, you whack it down. They make a second, you whack it down. They make a third, you whack it down. So they make the first argument again. This is why most biologists just can’t be bothered with Creationism at all, even for the fun of it. It isn’t actually any fun. Creationists just chase you round in circles. It’s boring.
This is very true for any of the natural sciences. It's just not worth debunking their claims. The'll keep repeating untruth after untruth. Every time. About everything.
Furthermore, I, for one, am here to learn from people much, much more knowledgeable than I can ever wish to be. Repeating a PRATT puts a stop to this learning process.
Just do some basic searching on Google before posting a PRATT. You'll be liked after that. Easy.
