All I said is that in theory a global flood would cause an Ice Age, didn't give any date to it, nor did I affirm it's real historicity.

So if you have no evidence and no actual hypothesis, but only a "maybe" that you've pulled out of thin air, then why bring it up in the first place? It's sort of like me interrupting a discussion of Shakespeare by declaring that in theory the differences between the quarto and and folio editions of Hamlet are because Shakespeare was misnaming the document files on his laptop.

Who can say?

I myself prefer the belief that creationists are halfwits, and will defend this view against the proposition that creationists are deliberate liars in despite of anyone who prefers that opinion.

I'll accept that debate challenge. Before I came here I spent a year visiting the blog of a certain mustachioed Kiwi charlatan. Having witnessed the amazing level of deception of both self and others on display there, I assert that very few people could mouth the utter nonesense of creationism and not know on some level that they were full of shit.

Very well. I maintain that the vast majority of creationists are sincere, and I shall argue for it. Start a thread.

As you wish. I shall put together an appropriate first post, and then let the festivities commence.
