Since that is free for all now, anybody is free to demonstrate they are not creationists ...
Sure thing.
creationism noun : a doctrine or theory holding that matter, the various forms of life, and the world were created by God out of nothing and usually in the way described in Genesis
I do not hold this view. So I am not a creationist.
The fact that I disagree with you does not make me a creationist, because that isn't what "creationist" means. And it is unnecessary to try to hijack it for this purpose, since there is already a word for people who disagree with you.

Hiding in denial behind the dictionary ...
If that is how you would like to describe telling the truth and using words properly, then apparently that is what I am doing. Whereas what you are doing with words is usually done only by people suffering from acute psychiatric disorders.
The dictionary says usually not always.
To qualify one clause, not the whole thing. Did you notice where the word "usually" comes in the definition?
creationism noun : a doctrine or theory holding that matter, the various forms of life, and the world were created by God out of nothing and usually in the way described in Genesis
Not only do I not subscribe to the usual form of creationism, I do not subscribe to creationism at all, since I do not subscribe to "a doctrine or theory holding that matter, the various forms of life, and the world were created by God out of nothing".
Which is more and which is less usual is an opinion anyway. Open to debate. The point is your cryptocreo faith is based on the same principles.
You are lying to me about my own opinions, how do you think that's going to work out for you?
Genesis is ascribing an age to time and so are you. You reckon the difference in magnitudes of the duration given by Genesis and that given by you counts for anything?
I think that the fact that I'm not a creationist should count for something in a discussion of whether or not I'm a creationist. You, of course, have a different opinion, because you are either mad, stupid, or an enormous troll.

You miss the point, Inadequate. Usual here may have a historical significance only. It was usual before the advent of the modern quackademic consensus-nonsensus cosmogony. After the quackademics absorbed and adopted the ex nihilo creationism of Genesis into their big bunk cosmogony the meaning of usual somewhat changed. After the founder of the quackery teaching- Lemaitre- globally Genesis type of creationism is much less usual than its bigbangist variation. That is the situation in the modern world now. Face it, blaming it on my alleged madness, stupidity or trollage cannot change anything. You are being vocal in defending the creationist quackery, are firmly in denial about it so are listed as a crypto-creo by the feline.
So you still do not understand what clause the word "usually" is qualifying in the definition of "creationism"?
It's the clause that it begins.
It appears that your problems with the English language prevent not only you from writing it yourself, but also from understanding it when you read it.

Re: abuse of language by crypto-creos
The only problem with English language or any other tongue is its abuse by the crypto-creos like crtetin Krauss and the rest of clanking Nobel lorries and fizzy sissies.
However, the problem with you is that you're too dumb to either use the English language or understand it.
For this reason, I would suggest that you're rather wasting your time on a discussion board, which is by its nature verbal. Your handicap makes meaningful participation beyond your grasp.

Re: abuse of language by crypto-creos
Sorry, Inadequate. Handicap is entirely yours. Nothing to do with me. You and your crypto-creo buddies here got re-defined by the cat according to strict criteria of science. Namely, the claim of conceptualising of a single atom or the collection of all atoms in existence being created out of nothing or the rejection of such a concept.
That is just calling a spade a spade and you and your buddies here are now fretting and fuming about my lack of equivocations. Just face the music, Doc. No denial is possible. The quote from Hawking sums his, yours and you whole lot's ideological foundations nicely up. The cat is out for the kill and there is nowhere to run and hide for you crypto-creo mice.
Evidence is plenty in front of the judge. Remember the title of the cretin Krauss's book? Universe from nothing if your memory needs a nudge. What was the concept of the open creationist Lemaitre? Primordial atom from nothing, I remind you again.

Re: Vatican sophistry
But what should we say to Maddenstein except: "You are a fucking halfwit"?
If the moderators would like to make a suggestion, I'm all ears. But what should we say, what can we say, except that he is mentally handicapped and we cannot cure him?

Why not a square, or an octagon?
Or why not "nature's harmonic simultaneous 4-day TIMECUBE!"

I'll add triangles and my mother to the list of things you don't know about.
Just out of curiosity, is there anything you do know about?

Re: Raisin Muffin
One day someone may figure out how to translate your strange yet wonderful language into English. I hope that it will turn out to be an epic poem demonstrating the transcendent power of love, and I fear that it may just be instructions for operating a washing-machine. I am, however, fairly certain that it will not relate to the science of physics.

And you are still at a loss to find anything to say in your crypto-creo defence, Inadequate.
What a strange lie.
What a strange guy.

Re: Reasons to be humble
Yeah, and biologists tell us that you can add two rabbits together and get eight rabbits. They're so stupid, they don't even understand grade-school math. Any kindergartener could tell them that if you add one and one together, you don't get eight. Biologists are such idiots.
Or, here's a thought, maybe you're an idiot? This hypothesis would be consistent with the observation that everyone tells you you're an idiot.

Re: Reasons to be humble
I'm sorry, for a moment there I talked to you as though you weren't an idiot. My mistake. It won't happen again.
Let me make it up to you right now by speaking to you as you deserve.
You are an ignorant pig wallowing in the filth of your own stupidity. You are a disgusting and ludicrous spectacle, and the only conceivable purpose of your existence is that people can watch you rolling around in your own intellectual excrement and say to one another: "You see how dirty and stupid that guy is? Let's not be like him". They could use you as a warning to children.
Now, it has been suggested by some people that you are merely a deliberate troll. They propose that you are wasting your life pretending to be insane and mentally retarded. I admit the possibility. However, I would say that anyone who wastes so much of his life pretending to be insane and mentally retarded is, in fact, insane and mentally retarded. Otherwise you'd do something sane and non-retarded with your time instead. For example, have you ever heard of these things called women? They're quite awesome, especially when they take their clothes off. When you've stopped drooling out ignorant and contemptible nonsense, you might want to check that out.
