Rahvin - Why? Because his posts are very freeking intelligent yet makes them understandable to us mortals.
That is quite probably the best compliment anyone has ever given me, particularly from "the opposition."
Thanks, Chuck.
Actually, the more I debate here, the more I get to know other posters, the more I see I don't belong here.
All I can do is be honest with myself and what I believe.
As far as debating goes here, I don't plan on ever being picked to be on someones elses "dream team". Some here are in a league of there own.
Me, im in the bottom group just hanging on hoping no one finds out im secretly lost and barely getting by. It sucks being down here but then again, no one expects to much from you, until you make statements others disagree with. Which is what debating is all about.
Don't sell yourself short. You're among the most rewarding Creationists I've debated with here, simply because you seem to actually pay attention to what's said in a debate. In many debates, one or both sides fail to speak
to each other and instead talk
at each other, typically for the benefit of the lurkers because both sides consider their opponents hopeless brick walls.
You'll rarely find a better place to learn than EvC, not just about the topics of discussion like theology and biology, but of how to argue, and even how to
think for yourself rather than just parroting what you're told.
