ID and Creationism can only exist in an avoidance environment
This is pretty much expected. The only way that ID or Biblical Creationism can exist is in an environment where they are sheltered from challenge. This is just more of the proof that ID and Creationism are bankrupt and can only be sold on the Midway of the Carny like Snake Oil and even then, only if you can keep the lights low so folk can't see the pea being palmed.

Re: ID and Creationism can only exist in an avoidance environment
The most blessed & free nation on the planet's founders as well as the majority of it's citizens have bought into that snake oil for the last two centuries and enjoyed the blessings of the maker/designer for doing so and acknowledging him for his wonderful work.

Well Buz, maybe you can start yet another thread on that nonsense and it can be blown away again. Otherwise it is just another Special Pleading. see How can "Creationism" be supported?
​
If you think that ID or Biblical Creationism can stand up to examination, maybe you can present a model that explains the evidence in any one of the MANY threads here at EvC?
​
We are looking for a model for sand, the stars, the Grand Canyon, Oetzi, the various civilizations around the world 6000 years ago, angular unconformities, ERVs, Salt domes and beds, correlations and radiometric dating just to mention a few. Maybe you can present the model no Creation Scientists has proposed.

More nonsense from Buz
The Bill Of Rights also calls for free and unabated exercise of religion both in and out of office to the extent that the founders had church in the halls of congress, instituted Bible and Watt's Hymnal in public schools etc.
​
Please show where the Bill of Rights "calls for free and unabated exercise of religion both in and out of office to the extent that the founders had church in the halls of congress, instituted Bible and Watt's Hymnal in public schools etc."

Here is a link to it if you should actually want to read it.

Re: More nonsense from Buz
Buz claims:
​
The Bill Of Rights also calls for free and unabated exercise of religion both in and out of office to the extent that the founders had church in the halls of congress, instituted Bible and Watt's Hymnal in public schools etc.
​
I linked you to a copy of the Bill of Rights. Please point out where it "calls for free and unabated exercise of religion both in and out of office to the extent that the founders had church in the halls of congress, instituted Bible and Watt's Hymnal in public schools etc."
​
Or is this just yet another example of Buz misrepresenting things and when called on it running away?

Dropping this effort

Where does the Bill of Rights call for
​
  • free and unabated exercise of religion both in and out of office
  • church in the halls of congress
  • instituted Bible and Watt's Hymnal in public schools
​
As to treating you with respect, I have the utmost respect for you and so wonder why you must always misrepresent things in your posts?

​
Whatever Buz. It is simply not worth it.
