Re: The avoidence tactic
At the risk of annoying the monkey. (LOL)

There is another related phenomenon, and that is since the Biblical Christians and Biblical Creationist positions really don't stand up to examination, since they cannot successfully support their position in an open environment
Mangled grammar apart.
By open you mean here? At Evc? It must be, because you use that expression immediately here:

We have even had a member who could not face OPEN challenge of her positions here at EvC and so simply cried and whined and demanded to get her way or to be banned until she got her wish, then set up her own little controlled environment where SHE could control the content and avoid challenge.
You mean like the controlled environment Percy set up? Where he can control the content and avoid challenge? EvC indeed.
There is an "old" Irish song called "Whiskey in the Jar". It's a rabble rousing song- sung now only for tourists.

I assume you can show where Percy has ever controlled content or avoided challenge?
I sure can. Just tell me on front of which impartial judge I should present the case. On second thoughts...
Actually EvC is a great example of open discussion. TTBOMK No ONE has even been banned or even suspended at EvC based on their opinions
Tsk, tsk. You know that I could (by way of my being banned) prove this point erroneous.

Re: The avoidance tactic
I was suspended once. And my opinion had very much to do with it.
If someone was giving me slack that is their responsibility. I never asked for it.

Re: The avoidance tactic
BTW: I take it that you are not posing an impartial judge. In which case we can forget all about THAT point?

I hope you can support that.
I can't remember the exact words. But "You are a high ranking officer in the army of Satan" had something to do with my being banned then. If I recall correctly. I could be wrong though.
Now to the question.
Who cares...

The failure of creationists here at EvC mirrors their failure elsewhere: there is no evidence or logic to support the creationist position
Granted.
What about the fuckhead position though. Take me for instance. I'm a fuckhead. According to EvC-think we could bat the ball - back and forward - and do no better than arrive at a position of fuckheadedness based upon the lie of the land (around here). If the lie of the land says I'm a fuckhead then I am. If not then not.
But I say I am a fuckhead. What then. EvC against me it appears. As if I should trust.
You're a fuckhead too Omni. But don't take my word for it.
