Hey TC,
Welcome back.
And welcome to the Nos Insultathon.

Well, boink, boink, boink....
BTW, how was your trip to Thailand?

"I've come to the point where I don't suffer fools very well."
--You 'don't suffer fools'...? Your syntax is a bit jumbled.

TC, to decline to "suffer fools gladly" or variations, is a turn of phrase not heard very often these days, but the syntax is correct.
How have you been?

Hey! Welcome back, TC! How's our favorite idiosyncratic creationist? Good post, unfortunately I don't think the poster will be back. Sigh.

--I stand corrected, however I still can't seem to pin-point what it is synonymous to in words I am aware of even with your attempt at clarification. :\
"How have you been?"
--I've been doing quite well, thanx for asking

--Your favorite ( and almost rightly )peculiar Creationist looks forward to renewed discussion topics back in this good ol' forum .
--In my absence from responding I have read topic threads that interest me and as always it seems, the forum seems to get a lot of drive by shooters who unsuccessfully carry on worth-while conversation.

To not suffer fools gladly means that one has no
patience for those who show themselves to be
easily led/foolish/stupid/slow-of-mind etc.

Exactly. One can only beat one's head against a brick wall for so long before one realizes that they won't understand why they are incorrect in their beliefs and just say "Screw you.".

1. although most evolutionists believe that the earth is overpopulated, if we were able to reproduce for millions of years at the rate we're going currently, there would be approx. 1,700 million people per square foot(of land).

How many millions of years?
What is the starting population size?
How do you justify using current population growth as an indicator
for historical population growth?

2. Evolutioninst believe that "nothing" exploded and made "everything"

No, the don't.
Evolutionists accept that the evidence for evolution is
poverwhelming, implying that it has a high probability of
being a correct explanation of the diversity of life on earth.

Can you proove that?
- Name some negative mutations
- Tell me how you would detect a subtle, yet beneficial mutation
- How do you detect detrimental mutations?

How do you know that?
How is DNA formed?

5. "The probability of life arising by chance is the same probablility as throwing a six on a dice five million consecutive times."
-Sir Fred Hoyle, a world leader in astronomy and mathematics before the British Academy of Science.

Probablistic arguments are irrlevent after the fact.
Just because something is unlikely doesn't mean it cannot
happen a million times a day.

6. The second law of thermodynamics states the opposite of how evolutionists say we got here!

No, it doesn't. Read up on it.
Is the earth a closed system?
Is there any such thing as a closed system outside of
a laboratory?

As a statistical problem, the above outcome is possible.
It may have a very high improbability, but it is a possible
outcome.
What's your point?
