Are all creationist dishonest?

I am not familiar with wilsoncole, but newhope is actually a really nice person to talk to if you can get her away from the whole "poking holes in evolution proves creation correct" nonsense.

she intellegent enough and ill take your word for it.

we just see her lie over and over and over again trying to dig up creations grave with a wooden shovel and theres a ten foot concrete layer over the top of the grave LOL

we get tired of hearing her scraping away lol she thinks the noise proves creation is real

at first she would communicate then she stopped then she started again and now stopped. she has a problem grasping reality

You know, when I see nonsense like this, I am eager to suggest that we modify the thread rules to include:


1) You MUST provide EVIDENCE that you at least READ the VERY BASICS of evolution BEFORE posting here.
2) You must start your postings by CORRECTLY stating what evolution, in a nutshell is.
3) YOU MUST "attack" sections of what TOE says, not what YOU THINK it says.


If we do this, we will avoid idiotic postings like the one above, and will stop my brain cells from commiting suicide EVERY TIME THEY TRY TO PROCESS THE NONSENSE THAT SOME PERSONS POST.

Maybe a sticky summarizing in a few words a few basic evolutionary concepts, such as "macroevolution IS microevolution over a longer period of time - therefore these terms are meaningless", "evolution DOES NOT predict one species becoming or producing a completely different species in a single generation", and such like. At least it would be there so that the rest of us could just copy and paste it into these threads when needed.

Sometimes I wonder if the problem is not that people haven't tried to learn what the ToE actually says, but that it's gotten all garbled because many people are unable to imagine very long periods of time. A year is quite meaningful, a million years - what is that? Three or four generations, OK, no problem, ten or a hundred thousand generations? Really big numbers seem to have a tendency to stretch certain human minds beyond their limits.
