A lot of the problem is also the inability or unwillingness of some of the more agressive creationist posters to distinguish between criticism of what they post and criticism of Christianity.

“A lot of the problem is also the inability or unwillingness of some of the more agressive creationist posters to distinguish between criticism of what they post and criticism of Christianity.”

I’ve repeatedly asked GGG if there is a difference between “creation science” and faith. I’ve never gotten an answer.

I think that it’s an ego thing - a “mini-god complex” - where folks assign divine meaning to their own beliefs - making them unable to distinguish between criticism of their beliefs (even if it is preposterous science) and Christianity itself.

The short description is over zealous self righteousness. It is the same force that tears churches apart.

Matched by the inability or unwillingness of some of the more agressive atheists to distinguish between Christianity and illiteracy.

Why judge *either* site by the outliers -- unless the outliers have a role in making policy disproportionate to their numbers?

Cheers!
