Faith's ordering
Crash, what Faith said about ordering in the earlier post:
quote:
marine life in the lower layers, land animals in the upper layers for instance
  —Faith
Is true. The lowest layers are all marine life and there are land animals in the upper layers only.
However, it is far, far from the whole story and the typical kind of things that the major creo organizations and speakers use. It is, all by itself not untrue. It is however so far from the whole story as to be a deliberate dishonesty. An excellent example of the kind of behavior that brings distain on those organisations.
Playing "lawyer" like some children do to claim you didn't technically lie doesn't mean you aren't a liar in spirit.

willful ignorance
I was talking about organizations like ICR and AIG. I think at that level with the corrections and attention they get it goes beyond this kind of psychology. As individuals they all suffer from it (probably) but.... well maybe I just don't understand the depth of terror they feel --- but when someone spreads, in an organized way, untruths it is hard to find another word than lying.
