Creationists are actually inherently intellectually dishonest.They use all the trappings of modern science that fits their needs in their daily life,and then suddenly start spouting nonsense about one very specific area of science, evolution,because their faith forbids them to believe in it.Hypocritical in the extreme.
Please do not mix real science with evolution. And that is the point I was making. You dismiss the Biblical account, yet the Biblical accounts continue to be proven by historical discovery. And it is often the believers in evolution that ignore that most obvious reality. And then call believers in the Bible Hypocritical in the extreme. Hypocritical are those who ignore the truth, that has been revealed.

If you wish to believe this nonsense then have at it.Correcting someone's ignorance of science is not my responsibility fortunately.

Scary huh? They just ignore the overwhelming evidence against these fakes, they fall hook line and sinker. Screams of desperation.

He holds on to his beliefs in the face of all evidence to the contrary. "Because from all past reports we know the Ark is there"? All those previous ones which have been discredited?

That was possibly the lamest comeback I've read all year. Answer his post and grow up.

You obviously have not read many of Campbells posts.He has refined ignoring facts and repeating debunked BS to a fine art.Answering him is pointless He ignores what he doesn't want to believe,no matter the material presented for his edification, and believes in whatever fantasies fit his beliefs.

I understand your point of view. But I could say the same for most of these comments as well. Alot of you guys aren't listening to each other. You just dismiss each other's opinions and point of view because of what you think is right. I think we should just respect each others belief and leave it at that. No sarcasm, no jokes, no anger, etc. That's something I had to learn the hard way.

The comments rebutting folks like him are based on hard,proven scientific data.How exactly are you supposed to give credence to a belief that says the earth is 6000 years old when exactly zero evidence points to this?If some religious book come out that claims that 2+2 actually equals 6,should science give it serious consideration just because some consider it true because their religion says it is true?Should we,for example,really give serious thought to whether or not promiscuous women cause earthquakes because an Islamic imam say they do?Do we rewrite seismology textbooks to include this theory?

When somebody holds on to unscientific beliefs because their religion claims the scientific belief to be untrue,and then makes lame attempts to belittle those believing in hard,proven science as blind faith believers in science,they deserve sarcasm and whatever else goes with it.
