So much fun !
Even if we don't debate websites that one is just sooooo much fun.
Get this one:
If a life form did evolve, it would have to evolve with many existing functions the first time. A life form needs a mouth, a digestive system, a method of locomotion, and reproductive organs. Just examining the extreme complexity of these mechanisms should stop the argument here, but lets keep going.
Do the people who wrote this no absolutely n o t h i n g ? They sure don't know that there are living thing alive today that have no mouth, no digestive system, no reproductive organs, and not much locomotion. In fact, the vast majority of life on this planet, and even more, the majority of the cells that are within your body are independent life forms that are doing fine without these systems.
This is what you bring to the table DiscipleFire? This level of intellectual discourse is what you actually want us to take as representing your religion?
Slow down and be more careful. You know not of what you speak.
(should also note that they are talking about abiogenesis not evolution. They haven't a freakin' clue about the science they think they are attacking. It is so amusing to watch the children pretending to dress up and play at the big people's games.)

Re: The pile-on
I take a different approach, Dr. A., I used to post all bloody day long. I have decided it is not a productive use of time.
Instead I have a look, react with itching fingers, wanting to rip some silly post apart and then decide to wait a few hours because I'm pretty sure someone who knows the material at least as well as I do (yourself, e.g.) will save me the time. If I see that I have something a little bit unique to say (in my own mind anyway ) I post.

Emperical evidence
nator, I'm not putting my empirical evidence up for peer review or something
As expected, you don't actually have any such evidence. And now, when called on it, you play a game to cover up your first misstatement.
Pretty common that is.

Spinning it and running
No, Itrownot, that isn't how it is.
You made a claim you can't back up. It appears it may be simply a matter of you using big words like "empirical" that you don't know the meaning of.
In any case, running is what a large percentage of creationists do. We come to expect it.
We don't need to loosen up. What we need is for people like you, utterly ignorant of the subject, to stay out of the science class. The educational system is under constant attack by those who are ignorant and those who lie. There isn't much room for loosening up under those circumstances.

A warning, itrownot
While this is a coffee house thread and thus is more lightly moderated. You are beginning to be a bit too disrespectful and need to reread the forum guidelines again I think.
You are wasting bits right now. If this continues you will have a half day or a day of suspension from posting.
