A nice pair at "Evolution: Science, Pseudo-Science, or Both?" - Nihilo and Ned

Ned subtitles his message "Facts and philosophies", which seems to be a good 3 word description of what they're covering.
I haven't been following this topic very closely, but I suspect there's also some good stuff upthread.

Both are replies to the same message (posted 3 minutes apart) and are thus somewhat redundant, but both have much good content. Percy's is perhaps more readable, especially to the non-geologist; roxrkool gets more technical.

peaceharris at "Flood not the Cause of the Grand Canyon -- Not a Biased Opinion"
Name: peaceharris
Forum: Geology and the Great Flood
Thread: Flood not the Cause of the Grand Canyon -- Not a Biased Opinion
Post #: Topic wide contributions
peaceharris has made a considerable effort to argue some sort of creationist perspective of the Earth's geology. He has tried his best to "sweat the details", probably significantly beyond any other creationist effort I have ever witnessed.
He took on an impossible task, and failed miserably at putting up a coherent alternative to the mainstream geologic thought. But was a much better effort really possible? I don't think so. He was doomed from the start.
This situation might call for a topic of its own. The "Posts of the Month" forum is not the place to discuss such further.

Added by 2nd edit: There has been some discussion of peaceharris's efforts at the "General discussion of moderation procedures: The Sequel" topic, starting at message 25. Admin's response is at message 27.
