We know the answer to that. Creationism was a reaction to Darwin's theory of evolution. The fear of the ignorant only rears its ugly head when it is threatened.

You are responsible for your own actions, the blogger and newspaper did not publish their article on RF, you cited it and it is cowardly to blame others for your own personal actions
They published it to the whole entire world publicly on the internet. So yeah take it to them.
They published it to the whole entire world publicly on the internet. So yeah take it to them.
And you (YOU) cited it in argument. Man up.
So? LoLz
Build a bridge and get over it!
Just as expected from one who hasn't got the courage to accept responsibility for their actions
I am not responsible for what the article says. You really need to grasp that concept.
You are responsible for what you publish on RF, you really need to gasp the responsibility that comes with freedom of speech.
So by your reasoning we should hold anyone that quotes "Mein Kampf" responsible for genocide then?
What about quoting the biography of a serial killer? Does that make someone responsible for the murders?
I think not.
Your being irrational. The Guardian is responsible for what it publishes, not the people who quote what was published.

That all depends on what reality your referring to.
As a Christian, my reality comes by the bible.
So you go to science for your source of information and I go to the bible for my source of information.
Ahh and now we get the silly and irrelevant comparisons by misrepresenting what i am saying
The one who quotes from whatever is responsible for quoting from whatever.
You quote from Mein Kampf then you are responsible for quoting from Mein Kampf.
Example, if i quote "Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord." From Mein Kampf, then i take full responsibility for quoting it, for looking it up, for copying and pasting it. Not for writing it in the first place. That is a basic destination that even my 6 year old daughter understands.
There is nothing irrational about being responsible for ones own actions. That you think it is irrational speaks volumes about why you deny responsibility for the contents of the post you made.
No, we hold them responsible for quoting Mein Kampf. Just like we hold you responsible for quoting the Guardian. YOU are the one who messed up here. The fact that the Guardian messed up too is merely incidental and not in any way supporting what you're now doing.
No, it makes them responsible for quoting the biography of a serial killer.
This is a public forum. Your aversion and comical missing of the point is here for all to see. I implore you to reconsider your position.
The Guardian is responsible for what it publishes, but you are responsible for using it in a quote to make a point. YOU were using it as if it WASN'T mistaken. When this was pointed out, you abandoned all responsibility for your own actions.
You are either delusional or very young. I'm voting both.

But did you know that Charles Darwin daughter wrote, that her father in his personal life, was studying to be minister of the bible and her grandfather was a minister of the bible. You probably didn't know that.
And how later in Charles Darwin life, he started to bring God more into the picture about his Theory of Evolution.
That how nothing happens by chance.

Exactly, so now you can stop with the nonsense.
How can you be so obtuse? You are responsible for using it in a quote. YOU. Only you. You are comically missing the point. This doesn't tell as much of your opponents as it does of you.

And it sure does, when the Theory of Evolution is threatened, it rears up it's ugly head. In opposition to the truth.
It's sure is nice to see you agree on something.
It's not my responsibility to correct it's mistakes. That's what editors are paid for. If you don't like what the article says, then talk to them.
When the Guardian pays me $60,000+ a year. I'll fact check for them.
Sure it does. A newspaper published an article about a sexist atheist to disgrace him. Thats on Dawkins first of all for making the mistake, and the editors for publishing the story disgracing him. Deal with it.
Using it in a quote to make a point on this forum is entirely your doing, and your responsibility.
That's what editors are paid for. If you don't like what the article says, then talk to them.
Again, how can you be so obtuse? You have multiple people telling you that we don't like what YOU are saying. How can you not understand this?
When the Guardian pays me $60,000+ a year. I'll fact check for them.
It is YOUR responsibility to fact check your sources if you try to use it in a discussion like this. No way around this. Furthermore, this is the debate forum. You quoting Guardian, and making a point, is your debate. Not the Guardian's.
I think you're the one who has to deal with something. Particularly, reality. I'm what, the fourth person telling you the exact same thing and you are not understanding what we're telling you. Is the problem ALL OF US, or just you? Occam's razor.
And now you are quote mining. How pathetic
Let me requote from my post so that perhaps you can understand it after reading a second time
i take full responsibility for quoting it, for looking it up, for copying and pasting it. Not for writing it in the first place.
actio
But perhaps you are inadvertently supplying the answer to this thread
One Fact to Refute Creationism
Creationist wont take responsibility for their own actions. Is that a fact?
