What’s a straw man argument?
Just kidding.
Huhn. I think it’s interesting that so far no die-hard creationist has posted and, playfully or otherwise, put on the “evolutionary hat.”
That says something, I guess.
It occurs to me that this result proves a sneaky point of some kind. To wit, that Scylla’s post is a satiric one, ultimately (and sneakily) designed to show that creationists lack the ability to empathize with anyone else’s position and that they lack – how to say this? – mental flexibility.
Then again, I consider myself a pretty creative guy, and I really can’t think of posting anything new or compelling under the “creationist hat,” so I guess I can empathize with their problem.
By the way, that guy who got into the mind of serial killers? John Douglas. Book called Mindhunter. Douglas was the guy Scott Glenn’s character (Crawford) in Silence of the Lambs is sort of based on.
I can’t believe I used the phrase “To wit.”
Yuck. Sorry.
[Creationist Hat]
If we subscribe to the Big Bang Theory, we must deny Newton’s Law that an object at rest tends to stay at rest.
See, if all of the everything in the universe was in a tiny little blob, something outside that blob had to cause it to go BANG (that was as big as I could make it 
).
If you want to deny Truth, you can call that “outside force” something other than God, but why bother?

How’s that?
Note to self:
Don’t climb into the ring with sdimbert. He’s one of those guys that checks the facts.

A straw man argument goes something like:
“I scare away more crows than you do!”
“Do not, ya stinking pile of dried vegetation!”
Etc., etc…
[evolutionist hat]
Since we observe changes in species now, they must have happened ad nauseum in the past, all from a common ancestor.

I don’t know, I think the tag on inside of the hat is poking me.
I would not discuss CvsE as I would not discuss the world being round with a “Flat-Earther”,nor UFO’s W/ alien believers.
