Hi Randman,Suspended again already, I see.The goal of EvC Forum is to provide a venue where the two sides in the creation/evolution controversy can engage in dispassionate and constructive discussion that leads to a better understanding. We can't achieve that goal if we allow threads to descend into raucous, rancorous and contumely chaos.It isn't impossible to get along with people you disagree with. Seek the best in people, you'll find it. Try to find some middle ground. Follow the Forum Guidelines and moderator requests.

Hi Randman, several things:

1. In the past, because it was felt unfair to suspend you when you didn't seem to understand the reasons, you were allowed to argue your position for long periods of time. But since history indicates that you'll rarely understand moderators' point of view I will simply suspend you without discussion.
   ​
2. In the OP, Fishboy said:
   ​
   I am desperately trying to understand things from an evolutionists point of view.
   ​
   That doesn't include you.
   ​
3. In the OP, Fishboy also said:
   ​
   In addition, has anyone found any creationist arguments that make sense.
   ​
   This also doesn't include you. Naturally all the arguments you've marshalled for your position make sense to you. Fishboy is asking if there are any creationist arguments that make sense to evolutionists.
   ​
   Feel free to start a new thread and to invite Fishboy there to get creationist views on evolution.

Let me draw an analogy. Let's say I somehow got it into my head that Jesus Christ is Santa Claus. Someone joins the board and asks, "I'm trying to understand things from a Christian point of view." What sense would it make for me to contribute my non-Christian misunderstandings about Christianity?One other thing. We have topics for a reason. Stay on topic or you'll be gone.One more thing. The despicable nature of evolutionists is not usually the topic of any thread. Again, please stay on topic or you'll be gone.

No one is trying to silence creationists to give a one sided picture, we're just trying to stay on-topic. As I just said, "Feel free to start a new thread and to invite Fishboy there to get creationist views on evolution." You can even start the thread and post what you would like to say there, then post here to refer Fishboy over there. Go to town!You've got to stop confusing efforts to maintain order with efforts to silence Creationists. If I wanted to silence Creationists I wouldn't have started this site. Sheesh!Edited by Admin, : Whoa! here => there

Hi Randman,I don't understand why you're posting in this way here. I made a typo in my previous post where I said, "You can even start the thread and post what you would like to say here, then post here to refer Fishboy over there," but it's obvious what I meant from context. You were supposed to stop obstructing the presentation of the accepted understanding of evolution in this thread.I'm suspending you for 48 hours this time.
