The Forum Guidelines do not prohibit being wrong. If you've shown Coyote wrong and pushing an ideological agenda in that thread then what more could you want?

Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity. It is the mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus. -- Thomas Jefferson

Yes, the spambot had a spam link as it's signature, but didn't know how to Show Signature and so was sent out hoping they were on as default.

Great Debate with Faith
I think it's obvious that Reduction of Alleles by Natural Selection (Faith and ZenMonkey Only) is over.
Some other masochistic soul can take over, or you can open it up to the general community, but I think it's been made abundantly clear that Faith is either (1) not intellectually developed enough to confine her thinking to real logic or (2) not interested in honest discussion of the topic.
To me, I think she certainly has the intelligence to grasp the concept, and I think she realizes that major blow her worldview has taken from a simple paper about a beneficial mutation in a bacterium. However, she is now trying to use shear force of will to assert her own beliefs onto the world around her, and I have no intention of playing with that fire.

Re: Great Debate with Faith
You did an excellent job, Blue Jay.
I did not expect Faith to accept evidence that she could not fit with her creationist views. But you did present the evidence well. You should not consider your efforts as a failure. I certainly think of them as a success, in that Faith had to confront the evidence, even if she would not accept it.
And I am probably breaking some rule by posting this here. But I'll take my chances with that, because I think you needed some positive feedback.

Re: Great Debate with Faith
I too can give Bluejay positive feedback. He did a good job of keeping his cool and producing the evidence for his side.

Re: Great Debate with Faith
It would have been better to post to The End of Evolution By Means of Natural Selection thread. I see the debate as incomplete. If anyone would like to take BlueJay's place in the Reduction of Alleles by Natural Selection (Faith and ZenMonkey Only) thread then please post to The End of Evolution By Means of Natural Selection thread or send me a PM.

Re: Spam spam spam
The spam links are still there. Putting them there to boost google ratings was probably the whole point of the spam.
