Disagree = Hate
How could it be easy for me if Lennox does nothing for you?
You're his champion. Your duty is to defend his honor in all things. But you can't seem to defend as much as bluster.
No new info will be presented from either side, so there is no rational reason to justify
Not from your side, we understand that. Some folks have been at this for decades and, robertleva, you haven't presented anything already destroyed generations ago.
The other side, the good guy side, they get all kinds of new info all the time. It's their job.
The discussions themselves are divisive and toxic and are yet another vehicle for the enemy to spread hate and discord.
You mean someone will disagree with your world view and you find that hateful, divisive, toxic. To you, of course it is. You're a theist.
You won't even consider opposition, harsh or otherwise. We are the enemy, demons, devils, not to be seen, not to be heard, to be opposed with all power.
You asked in another thread why anti-theist. This level of abject disregard and intolerance of human differences, dehumanizing, spiteful, capricious, that your theism represents is an excellent example of why. And that is only one among many millions of reasons why.
You call opposition hate. And we all know what hate does in religion.
All I can do is deliver the following message: All you need to do is accept Christ. This message is open to literally anyone of any creed faith orientation / anything. For those who refuse to hear, I give them my prayers and let almighty God do His work.
Take it to your church.

Re: Concluding statements
There were a large number of very active and very effective creationists at the national level twenty years ago.
May be that is because they picked the low hanging intellectual fruit. They got to develop and present the first arguments that hadn't been shot down for being stupid yet. They are the ones that brought forth the origins of the acronym PRATT. They were the explorers. The Christian Knights going forth.
As for a new generation? I haven't seen one, have I? I don't think I'd know.
I see kids coming in here dangling pratts they got off some old websites, but, I don't see a new generation of arguments. They were trying to make ID that new generation idea while trying to ignore its centuries long history and known rebuttal. Doesn't seem to be working.
Maybe consider that the intellectual elite of creationism, the Illiteratii, don’t care to argue any longer but rather to politically influence the growing prominence of stupidity in our societies where we have so recently seen facts and reality mean less than the political wish.
