Creationist over at B5Tech

Post by XaLEv »

I started a thread about genetics over there, and one of the resident creationists - astronut78 - made a post which has lead to the thread becoming about creationism-evolution. Petronius Maximus posted a link to Mike's creationism page, to which astro responded with this:
astronut78 wrote:i've already been there.

after i shot down all/most his arguments (it was a while ago), which took three emails, he hasnt responded since.

however, i certainly give much credit to vlad, for he put up a much better fight than mike wong. mikes arguments were even flawed by darwinist standards....

oh, but dont forget than macro-evolution is only a hypothosis.

so dont criticise me for disagreeing with a hypothisis, i'm sure you disagree with some your self.

i disagree with the big bang theory, which is also really a hypothisis, and i agree with the super string model. but i dont hear criticism for that....

also dont think my belief in God or Christianity is related to my disagreement with darwinism, i used to be a theistic macro-evolutionist. that was until i met Dr. Katie Frates, although i disagree with her on several subjects her inspiration to look up ALL the facts lead me to disagree with darwinist.
If anyone wants to register in order to post over there, I must insist that you get a global account.

The thread is here.

Some how, I doubt he'll ever see reason. If he claims to have defeated Mike in three emails, I can't help but conclude he's an entrenched idiots that won't learn not matter what the evidence.

Another idiot who thinks that if I don't bother responding to his mindless repetitions of arguments already shot down and mangled on my website, then I must be admitting defeat rather than boredom. If I had a nickel for every dumb-fuck who used that ad hominem reasoning ...

Doesn't this creationist idiot realize that the terms Macro-Evolution and Micro-Evolution do not exist in science?!

Moron.

Or for that matter, that Evolution is a fact?

Or that the Big Bang theory is the best theory for the creation of the universe thus far, with a mountain of evidence to back it up?

Oh wait, I already know the answer. :roll:

Hey Xalev, since he's so confident, why don't you invite him over here?

Let's see how well he does. :twisted:

Yeah, let's get him over here and kick his ass!

And, you shouldn't pick on him for using bad grammar. He only has one hand free for typing.

He's suffering from "DarkStar Syndrome".

but then, people should not do mistakes...
Macro-evolution and micro-evolution do exist in science.
Macro is the name given to the changes at or above the species level and that is why is so hard to be show, would take long time to produce it, but it is possible and it is a fact. We do not see it blindly in the lightday because Macro-evolution does not happen under human lifetime. Micro-evolution is about the changes at or below the species level. Genetics show it. Even your difference to your parents show it.
Both are not hypotesis, teories. They are facts.

astronaut78, a liar???

Post by Petronius Maximus »

I resently presented astronaut78 with a request to come here and arque his creationists views with Mike Wong (and the rest of you fine folk). He responded with this.
astronaut78 wrote:i've been to mike wongs site, and emailed him, we dabated over a few emails, and he apperntly block me.
Funny, I thought that you said you have never arqued with him Mike. Well someone is lying here and I think I have a pretty good idea who it is. (a hint; He's catholic)
Interresting that astro didn't say is he going to come here or not. :wink:

Don't get your hopes up. Very very few creationist with good fore warning of this site or board will come here. For them, coming here is like charging a fully manned and equiped pillbox armed only with a small knife. The only creationist morons you can expect are the extreme "With God's help I can bring them all to Jesus" types, or the ignorant JW high schooler who hasn't bother to read the website or previous post. The first type can be fun, the second is pretty annoying.
The most basic assumption about the world is that it does not contradict itself.
