but you are not going to get meaningful dialogue casting to those swine

You use those words as an example of why not to visit newspaper comment threads... as compared to UD????!?!?!?!?

I don't think those words mean what you think they mean.


What I'm considering is the best way to get as many viewers as possible for the real science.

Even UD, well, if don't count AtBC regulars, they only have a few dozen viewers probably.  Joe's blog is the same.  yes, The arguing is fun, but it's not exactly doing anything to spread the truth.

That's more of what I was thinking.  get as many people as possible to at least see the evidence against their beliefs.

oh no i don't think there has  been meaningful dialogue at UD

but it does happen on the internet, rarely.  look at TSZ, for example.  real climate.  the oil drum.  now, those aren't really creationist strongholds but you will find people debating issues using *data*.  that is entertaining

as far as creationists go, you can either mock them subtly or directly but they don't give a shit about whether their creationism is true.  the data don't matter.  that is most entertaining when they pretend that it does.  and thats what made UD entertaining for a while was going through the exercise of demonstrating that they actually, contrary to spoken intent, didn't give a fuck about the data

so if you are looking to "Convince Creationists" I think you are S.O.L.  that is not what al gore made this bitch to do
