But what I'm saying is that, in the rare case you do have a creationist who comes in saying ''I think that the world/universe/humanity was created by an intelligent being because of... 'whatever' ", you reply to him as if he had posted word-salad.
That, someone coming here and saying they think the universe was created by an intelligent being almost never happens.
Instead, what we find is people saying that the universe was created by an intelligent being.

How many EvC members would have ever had an awareness of the Biblical prophecies relative to the latter days, alternative views concerning the emerging New World Order, Middle East current events, acclaimed Exodus evidence and alternative views concerning many topics which would never have been on the table if left up to Tranquil Base and True Creation types?
Well, if we'd left it up to you we wouldn't have heard equally nonsensical statements about the great Pyramid and the "pillars of Enoch". For that we needed Cold Foreign Object.
Every religious loon has their own brand of crazy, there's nothing special about yours.
Dr Adequate, you and the pack who've received some ideological butt kicking in threads like the Exodus thread take advantage of threads such as this to malign the one who held the skeptical Exodus pack at bay with unrefuted (albeit, debatable) evidence for 35 or so pages of robust legitimate debate.
Pernicious opinions pertaining to persons posting unpopular points, opposing positions prescribed by the pack, are inappropriately posited persistently.
Do you have a link to that thread Buz? I MUST HAVE MISSED IT.

I think what you mean to say is that those who argue positions that lack evidence won't fare very well.
--Percy
When you said this:
quote:
Just to be clear about one other thing, a creationist is someone who holds beliefs about the real world that are based upon his religious beliefs rather than evidence.
....you appeared to be implying that, by definition of creationist, evidences acclaimed by creationists cannot be considered legitimate.
No, we are saying that YOU have no idea what the difference between evidence and simply claiming there is evidence is. You have never presented evidence, only claimed there is evidence.
For example you claim there was some land bridge at Aqaba, but never present any evidence.
You claim that there are chariot wheels, but never present any evidence that there are chariot wheels.
You claim there are fulfilled prophecy but never present any evidence that there is fulfilled prophecy.

There comes a time to refrain from repetitively repeated repetitions.
Not once did I claim to have provided empirical evidence relative to the shallows, Dr. Jones. Your memory fails. What I did was to debate reasons why a mighty rush of sea and millenniums of time could well have eroded the shallow delta, likely created by the flood from creating the wadi canyon.
Moreover, that event was relatively (I say, relatively) near the time of the flood which would have created the delta. More about that, when I find time to get back to the Exodus thread. The wee hrs, here in NY, are telling me I need some rest. Good morning.
The Biblical Flood has been absolutely and totally refuted.
Every time you assert the Biblical Flood you are posting a FALSEHOOD, a lie.

Nevertheless, I have at least one bonafide esteemed credentialed marine research scientist, Dr. Lennart Moller, as well as other intelligent company like Lysemachus (remember him?), his friends amd other good company sharing my delusions
ABE: LYSEMAUCHUS, WHERE ARE YOU?
Lennart Mller is a respected and credentialed Marine Research Scientist?
Evidence please Buz.

.......we're still waiting for your evidence, that Mller is not a "bonafide esteemed credentialed marine research scientist."
My point was that if I'm delusional, so is an esteemed scientist, who did the research.
How do you think he did his other scientific research, without the equipment needful for the marine aspects of it? Why do you think he invested, likely millions in a fully equipped marine ship; for pleasure purposes? I don't think so.
How do you think he had the expertise and equipment, with the techy equipment aboard to do the marine research that he documented?
Perhaps you could contact him and talk to him about your doubts?
The point is that he is NOT an esteemed marine researcher, did NO marine research and only counted on the utter gullibility of the Christian Cult of Ignorance and the assurance that they would be unable to see that all he produced was bullshit.
I really doubt that he is delusional though I am willing to accept that as an explanation rather than just saying he was another Christian con man.

I don't think a man of his esteem would commit fraud and jeopardise his repution. Moreover, as I told Percy, if I'm delusional, he's delusional.
I maintain that if secularist scientists thought they could falsify Moller, they would be there to do so.
I see no problem, as I said, politely accepting that Mller is just delusional. there is absolutely nothing though to falsify about Mller, he produced no evidence to refute, just a video meant to market to the gullible Christian Cult of Ignorance.
I am willing to concede that he is only delusional and not as dishonest as it seems.
Edited by jar, : make it clear who I was referring to
