re: Yet, I defy you to find a single Evo post that contains either a purposeful logical fallacy or flat out lie.)))

Now, what would be the point of that, when you'd just redefine "lie" or "fallacy".

I can point you to a thread about a "new species" of fruit fly being launched where no new species existed, nor exists now (three years later). It's a thread full of wishful thinking and hopeful expectations, but no new species was created. Just an outlandish claim--a lie, as most people understand lying. I'm sure you'd just say that "new species" does not really mean "new species" and that I need to get back to biology class.

FRevos argue in bad faith--

Balderdash. Fruit flies are frequently speciated in labs. Just because you insist they're still fruit flies--and that that somehow means something significant--does not mean they didn't speciate. Speciate means "can't breed together", it doesn't mean whatever you want it to mean.
