| Quote (Occam's Aftershave @ June 17 2006,00:41) | To the board and the lurkers: Sorry for the repeat postings but AFDave has a bad habit of ignoring all tough questions that his C&P sources don't address. I just want all the readers, especially the Christian lurkers, to see how a YEC like AFDave responds (or fails to respond actually) when he is forced to think for himself.
Remember Dave, every non-answer by you is a win for evolution and a loss for AFDave. |
And this is why we say AF Dave has lost every single argument he's had on this board. Because he has failed to answer every single substantive rebuttal of every point he's ever tried to make. He's failed to respond to rebuttals of his Portuguese argument, he's failed to respond to rebuttals to his "in the beginning was the (written) word" argument, he's failed to respond to rebuttals to his "zircons have way too much helium to be more than a few thousand years old" argument; he's failed to respond to rebuttals of his "GULO gene doesn't mean anything argument." Christ, it took him three days to respond to my stupid "airplanes and helicopters" argument.
In Dave's universe, points that contradict his points simply don't exist. He doesn't hear them. How many times has it been pointed out to him that the evidence for an old earth is derived from multiple, independent, mutually-reinforcing lines of inquiry? What he responded with? A few microscopic grains of zircon, a few crumbs of coal, some wild-ass speculations about a global flood for which he hasn't provided a particle of evidence, some completely unsupported claims that radioactive decay rates were high enough in the past to melt the planet, and some complete craziness about how 4,500 years is plenty of time for a "founder" species of monkey to radiate into hundreds of species of monkeys today.
If this track record doesn't persuade the lurkers of Dave's utter ignorance when it comes to any branch of science at all, I don't know what will.
