"Old Landmarks adjusted the question after acknowledging that Guitar did not believe there was a real Adam.
That is hard to miss."

When I said that Adam never existed, there was no reason to further deal with the question. The question was just a way to get around the implications of saying that God could make the world APPEAR to be 15 billion years old but actually have it only be 6,000 years. The question lacked any intelligent purpose, beyond distraction. I treated it as such. It deserved to be ignored.

"He wasn't being asked to believe the story, only to answer a question about the story, big diffence."

If I don't believe the story, then there was no point in answering it.

The question lacked any intelligent purpose, beyond distraction.

He sure challenged you and said he could prove it was just an opinion that you were expressing. That was the purpose he gave you. It was to prove you wrong.

You should have taken the challenge to answer the question and then point out the flaws in his arguments as he presented them. It could have gotten interesting, at least more interesting than name-calling.

It still looks like you were afraid to answer the question at any rate.
