--A fairly affluent post, Defiant. One of my more significant disapprobation's to your post would be your use of reference toward 'organisms' evolving though inheritance and the guidance of natural selectability. A more appropriate and accurate wording would be a 'population' in the majority of its context.
--[Edit] - Also, your post only involved a small branch of the mechanics of evolutionary developement so I would not call it a 'general' discription.

"Can you come up with an acceptable theory of creationism that would address everything that would be accepted by the scientific world?"
--I'm at a loss as to what it is you are trying to pin-point in your search for a acceptable 'theory of creationism'. Could you be more specific? What topic of study and specific phenomena do you need a theoretical explanation for?
--Mabye a new thread should be created for this query.

"She wants something more than "Puff, God did it."
--And I'd like to answer something reasonable rather than write an encyclopedia on such an enormously vague question. See my last post for what I'm looking for.

"The only thing that is resonable to you is that POOF GOD DID IT. If anything other than God did it, is is WRONG and ILLOGICAL. Man, what a close-minded view."
--I agree it is, so you should be weary of your prejudicial mind, calm down, and appreciate the fact that I do not in the least follow this line of reasoning.
"Now, before you go and misquote me, I am not saying that THERE WAS NO GOD WHO CREATED THE EARTH, just saying that there is no evidence that I have seen that has led me to conclude this is what happened."
--Great, that's nice, we must agree to disagree, however I have asked that you supply me with a considerable proposal for supportive discussion pertaining to your accusations for the non-existence of a 'theory of creation'. See my last posts for more detail.
--Careful with your attitude, it would not be a complement if I confused you with nos.

"What was "vague" about the question? All you have to do is say is how creationism works. "
--The methodology of creationism? Since you have asked this on an individual level, I simply see that, IMO, creationism implies theism. There are no more details other than that. If you'd like to go more in depth and see what I think about a specific finding and what it indicates about the history of the earth, life, solar system, etc. Delve deeper.

"Flattery will get you nowhere."
--Nowhere? well at least that is a step further from where your going... Respect is one element that will get you a serious and credible conversation.

"In other words "Puff, god did it!"
--The only place your going to get anything of that sort is the origin of the universe...but of course you would say that 'puff' I dunno how it happened but it still went 'puff'. Ask serious questions, your likely to get serious answers. Ask sarcastic questions, your likely to get sarcastic answers.

"Respect is earned not demanded."
--Respect is 'required' for you to have any take in formal, credible discussion with me.

"As I've said before, it is better to be a smartass than a dumbass."
--You are being both.. Do you listen to any of your fellows in this forum? They don't enjoy your attitude either.. Good explanation for why you don't get anywhere in your 'debates'.

"And what, you're just an ass?
It is only one of them and he doesn't count. And I get what I want out of my debates."
--What you are getting is not positive response..so unless you have some odd mental inversion with the concept, then I'd say your being here is not appealing.
--You have yet to show that you are even capable of carrying on a discussion of any set of data.
--I don't know why I put up with you, I guess I just feel a hint of sympothy for the intellectually impaired.

"You don't have any respect for my intelligence if you expect me to accept creationism as anything other than religiously inspired pseudo-science."
--'Creationism' isn't even a topic of debate in science, it has nothing to do with science! I have not made this assertion, this again shows your lack in knowledge for what you are dealing with when you struggle discussion with me.
"So how do you expect me to have any respect for you?"
--Knowing your prejudice, this question is fully contradictory toward your actions and carries a non-existence of potential merit. The sophistry you have displayed is worthless repugnant jargon.

"State of topic discussion noted - Door now found to be creaking towards "closed" - Will the movement of the door be stopped? - Only time will tell."
"I'd like to request that everyone calm the hell down, take a step back, breathe deeply, and quit with the ad homs? We're not adding anything to the discussion, here. Thanks."
--I had been hoping that nos's highly pervasive off-topic would soon come to a halt, however he seems to enjoy continuing discussions without any approach to science. I will no longer reply to nos's posts in this thread as this is the case. Forgive me for getting slightly caught up with his attitude.
I will quote his segment which seems to be the most recent post that is relevant to this discussion:
quote:
"Now, before you go and misquote me, I am not saying that THERE WAS NO GOD WHO CREATED THE EARTH, just saying that there is no evidence that I have seen that has led me to conclude this is what happened."
--Great, that's nice, we must agree to disagree, however I have asked that you supply me with a considerable proposal for supportive discussion pertaining to your accusations for the non-existence of a 'theory of creation'. See my last posts for more detail.
--[Edit] - Then again, this may need a topic on its own.. seeing it is rather different from the ToE. I don't think this topic need be closed though.
