Obviously I disagree. FR is a pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Liberty conservative site. We are biased toward God, Life, Liberty, family and country.
All I'm going to say to you is that FR is what it is and I'm perfectly happy with it just the way it is. Those who don't like it and or think we're being unfair to opposing points of view can take a flying leap at a rolling donut. Because, frankly my dear, I just don't give a damn.
So you disagree that other points of view on the evolution debate are not to be tolerated here? That only a fundamentalist POV is allowed? That the faith of anyone who disagrees with a YEC POV should be called into question and that their Christianity is somehow false or faulty?
So in other words Jim, you think it is fine for creationists to insult anyone who disagrees with them, call them mentally retarded or insane, liberal trolls, etc. and to insult conservative Catholics by inferring that they are not real Christians, which I understand it against most forums rules, and yet when conservative and pro-life Catholics and other Christians object to that depiction based on their belief that the TOE and a 4.5 billion year old Earth is not contrary to their beliefs as Christians, they should not be able to defend themselves?
Although you and others might think otherwise, I am not nor are many other posters here against God, Life, Liberty, family and country just because we believe the Earth is a lot more than 6,000 years old. Ive been a pro-life, free market, pro-1st and 2nd amendment, constitutional conservative all my life. While Ive debated on the evolution and other science topics, Ive tried to be civil and respectful of others religious beliefs and that civility is often not reciprocated. But its good to know where you stand on the topic and that you think that Christians who think that TOE is valid science or that the Earth is older than 6,000 years are not true Christians or real conservatives and that according to you, that they are no longer welcome here.
Frankly Jim, youve allowed this site to become a cesspool of the fringe. Please remove my account because I no longer want to be associated with Free Republic, for this and many other reasons of late, as you evidently know nothing about Freedom or the meaning of the word Republic. And quite frankly my dear, I dont give a good damn what you think either.
You should really consider changing the name of this site to Fundamentalist Republic as that would be a more honest representation of what this once good, conservative and influential site has become.

I have no idea how old the earth is and don’t care one way or the other. But I do know that in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Cesspool, eh?
Whine, baby, whine.
FreeRepublic.com, kissing the libs and making them whine since 1996.

The term *creatard* is NOT a creationist construct. Neither is *IDiot*.
They certainly do their share of calling people insane, accuse them of drinking too much, and calling people trolls themselves.
Evos are in no position to whine about insults.

Ya know- it’s not that you or anyone else might dissagree with YEC- it’s HOW you folks dissagree, and the lengths you folks go to to try to derail threads that expose OEC or macroevolution that is the problem- As I mentioend several times now, take a quick glance at GGG’s threads and note the lengths for yourself- there’s NO secret here- it’s the same on EVERY thread he posts- several key evos in particular show up on EVERY thread hoping to disrupt and divert attention from the articles posted and quite frankly it’s tiring- and if you think peopel complaining about that soemhow makes FR a cesspool- then again I state you have a VERY selective sense of outrage
[[Ive tried to be civil and respectful of others religious beliefs and that civility is often not reciprocated.]]
Meh- not so much- You aint fooling anyone- you might not use direct insults, but your subtle insults are just as insidious- Perfect example is found in your following statement “You should really consider changing the name of this site to Fundamentalist Republic
Yup- the poor picked on evos- Where did I leave that violin?
