This thread of mine on anti-state.com is so infuriating, I just had to share it.

http://anti-state.com/forum/index.ph...d=6462;start=0

Heres a brief recap:

I begin by showing how IC system can evolve by Darwinian means, using the Krebs Cycle and the flagellum as examples.

One guy responds with, "evolution couldnt explain life even if it was given an infinite amount of time", and posts a link to some of Dumbski's essays on ARN.

I point out that he didnt address my OP, and he responds with, "what you said isnt relevant" (refering to my post about his obfuscation!)

I ask for him to address the OP in a more substantive way, and he posts the ARN link AGAIN.

I get flamed by some 'tard who thinks IDers are synonymous with Christians.

I discuss Dumbski's flagellum calculation, and show how it depends on Behe's argument, which I addressed in the OP. My friend responds by AGAIN saying, "evolution is impossible even with an infinite amount of time, blah blah".

Some other guy then accuses me of plagarism.

Fun. :banghead:

You'd think they worship the great Circle of Logic, and not a cross, wouldn't you?

You can only lead them to the river to drink...

In recent developments, im now an overly sensitive troll, and a "flaming prat".

ID vindicated!

What a bunch of pathetic jerks. They apparently don't know the difference between anarchists and luddites.

Yeesh! That place is like the resting place of the eternal third-graders! (meaning no disrespect to any fine, actual third-graders).

Typical IDist/creationist behavior. Mask their failure to address your opening post with a bunch of diversionary tactics.

edited to add: And considering that Tetrahedron Omega twit has a "Truth About the 9/11 Attacks" link in his sig (which leads to a bunch of paranoid anti-government conspiracy ranting), he's obviously already gone off the deep end. Why even waste your time?

You should see some of his other threads. Examples include a stirring defense of "astral projection" and Tipler's "Omega Point" theory.
