I've just registered, but you seem to have won the game of Flatten the Fundy already...

Ooh, what a lovely idea. A bit like splat the rat perhaps. It could probably be a computer website game :- eg pictures of well known fundamentalists popping out of "holes" on the screen to be splatted with the mouse hammer cursor but points lost for hitting any snails, fish, frogs, lizards, rodents, birds etc.

What got to me was someone mentioning Ratzinger with apparent approval. I just didn't expect anyone to have any reaction to the continuing inquisition and its leader other than "ahem, very nice clouds over there don't you think? Very fluffy..."

Hmmm, it seems to be hotting up with Melchior on the case. Makes a change arguing with a Catholic, but it's still SSDC -- same shit, different creationist...

Didn't you read what he said, Oolon? You lost the argument. Your pseudo-intellectual junk science doesn't impress him in the slightest... :banghead:

I just started reading The Blind Watchmaker again. What a fantastic book. Possibly your opponent would benefit from reading it.

This one is starting to get really good. Now this Chris W character is spouting off about the "Law of Biogenesis". And a post a few earlier about a "macro-biologist" and the odds of evolution being a "fraction of a percent"

I might have to register for this one...

Thank you Oolon and Meatros for your support.

It’s amazing how varied they are. There’s Phil Porvaznik (PhilVaz) who is a theistic evolutionist (like me...), IDists like Melchior and YECs like Edwin Tabara. To think they’re all the same religion!
