As you believe, KF, that you have the truth on your side the simple sword of truth and the trusty shield of fair play should be sufficient for you to make a convincing case. I'll even hold off on the sneers and snark. Perhaps we could start with something other then evolution/origins, to see how it goes? I recently quoted you as saying:   Quote Have the authors carefully evaluated the failure rate of so-called 'safer sex'? Have they reviewed the mounting evidence that abstinence-based sex education is working, precisely by helping teens to reject the kind of pressure their articles exemplify? Would you care to provide details on the "mounting evidence" that abstinence-based sex education works? This is a well studied area and so it should be possible to come to a mutually agreeable conclusion based on the scientific evidence. Obviously I'm going to take the position that actual sex education produces more positive results (less STD, less pregnancy) then abstinence-based sex education alone. So what say you KF? Yes, I'll even call you KF in this thread..... -------------- I also mentioned that He'd have to give me a thorough explanation as to *why* I must "eat human babies".

I know that he thinks they are incorrect, but he has failed to provide evidence or even math to support his belief.  And belief without evidence is faith... which is not science. I too will be exceedingly polite.  I do request that he operate in good faith.  I will be perfectly happy answering his questions as long as he reciprocates. -------------- Ignored by those who can't provide evidence for their claims. http://skepticink.com/smilodo....retreat

The whole truth Posts: 896 Joined: Jan. 2012 (Permalink) Posted: June 14 2012,02:43    dr. jammer, KF (gordon elliott mullings) is too much a sniveling coward to come here and face the direct, crushing defeat that would easily be dealt to his insane, incoherent, ignorant, dishonest, sanctimonious, rambling sermons. UD, not this site, is the one that bans people simply for disagreeing with them, which shows just how fearful you IDiots are. You god zombies must realize how wrong and delusional you are, otherwise you'd have confidence in your 'position' and would be eager to welcome challengers on UD and all the other IDiot sites that censor opposition. It must be terrible to live in so much darkness and fear. You poor babies. You even ran away from the thread that was set up for you here, just as gordo is doing. Running away is a major part of the modus operandi for you IDiots, isn't it? I wonder why your designer god didn't give you any confidence and courage? Maybe you need to get down on your knees and beg for some. I'm sure that that subservient 'position' is very familiar to you.

I've been trying to have an unmoderated, polite discussion with any ID rep for over 10 years.  No one has stepped up to the plate and actually been willing to discuss ID.  Heck, I can't even find a coherent definition on ID, because everyone seems to have a different version. Do you have any interest in discussing anything about this here? * This is not multiple choice, it's all of them -------------- Ignored by those who can't provide evidence for their claims. http://skepticink.com/smilodo....retreat

If yes, then take a close look at what happened in UD in Feb.

If KF were to come and debate in this thread then only a few things could possibly happen. If, as is claimed, they won't come and debate here because it's a swamp then logically their best move would be to come here, debate and then leave because of the "swamp". Then they can point to that event from now till eternity as the reason they don't come here. But that's never really happened has it? Even Dr J does not engage, he's too scared. So if the "darwinists" are unable to argue their case via evidence etc then the best possible thing that can happen for ID is for KF, Joe etc to come here and crush us with the evidence for ID. And again they can then point to that as evidence for their claims that there is no evidence supporting "darwinism" - they came, asked for it, destroyed it with logic and evidence and left leaving the thread a testament to ID. But this never seems to happen. So like Judge Judy says, if something does not make sense it's probably not true. So what's the "something" here then...... KF, once you have "dealt" with your ongoing crisis perhaps you'll take some time out to empirically ground one or more of your claims. After all, if you really believe you have the evidence on your side you can't lose can you? If I'm mean to you, you win and you win otherwise as you have all the evidence for your claims, right? So it's win/win KF! So what are you waiting for? Logic dictates you make your case! -------------- I also mentioned that He'd have to give me a thorough explanation as to *why* I must "eat human babies".

One of the door signs read RATIO. Even back in the minds of KF or other ID proponents, that door is not closed.
