Time for the Republican party to divorce the flat earth society. Frankly, those of us that are sane are sick of this sh*t.

[celmak]

I can come up with a rational point on the side of the right to life at the point of conception, the right to kill the baby would be irrational.

[Coyoteman]

Maybe someone on this thread can point zwerni towards the comprehensive definition of terms that some helpful person used to post on crevo threads?

Done in post #46.

The definitions are on my FR home page.

[UndauntedR]

I agree. I am so sick of the religious right destroying this great party.

[GovernmentIsTheProblem]

“Read post 53. Goodbye (if you can).”

Lol.

Your debate tactics have been....

Namecall (I went to a public school - so what?)

Point out a typing error as if that had some kind of meaning

Avoid the point - that the world described by the YEC museum is rather like that portrayed by the Flintstones... Anything to avoid that like the plage, because even you know it sounds dumb.

Attempt to end the debate after you haven’t addressed any salient points, and do it in a way that puts down your opponent if they dare respond to the mighty, privately educated celmak.

You disdain science... yet you use it’s fruits, selectively.

You do know that Jewish law, dating back to Old Testament times, and the foundation of the Judeo-Christian tradition, disagrees with you in regards to when a life begins.

I raise this only to point out that opinions can reasonably differ on this matter.

Good, stop being a cussing Lib and join the Conservatives.

[MaxMax]

This forever scared my happy childhood memories of the Flintstones.

You do know that the Old Testament of the Bible (the Jewish Bible) differs from Jewish Law on this matter?

"Book of Job speaks of the “behemoth” with “a tail like a cedar.” Sounds vaguely familiar."

[GovernmentIsTheProblem]

Damn woodpeckers! Knew I shoulda left him behind.

OK, the salient point:

There is more "faith" based in Evolution than there is in the Bible because there is less there; e.g., there is less to believe in what is mostly displayed in Natural Museums that have been around way before Ken Ham's museum. To name one example, I have seen "Lucy" still being an example to this day of the Evolution of man in these museums and this ape has been discredited over and over again.

I'm afraid that I'm not very familiar with your views on various scientific subjects.

What is your opinion on the validity of the science of Carbon-14 Dating?

[The Grim Freeper]

Did you see the size of that wild boar that 11-year-old young man killed earlier this week. It sort of crystalized what it must have been like when leviathan romed the earth right then next to Adam and Eve and their earlier offspring.

[HitmanLV]

Which was going to be my next point.

All this illustrates that rational people can come to different conclusions based on the same set of facts in this case. I don’t understand why this is particularly difficult for you to cope with.

[Reverend Bob]

Actually I thought the critters came first...then Adam.

Eve was an afterthought...

[celmak]

OK, you got me. Got any good Flinstone Comebacks? I’m always happy to hear from the Peanut Gallery.

“To name one example, I have seen “Lucy” still being an example to this day of the Evolution of man in these museums and this ape has been discredited over and over again.”

Lucy was an Australopithecus.

What has been discredited? Can you cite a source other than a “young earth creationist?” The skeleton is about 40% complete btw.
