Holy crap people, I think I'd getter better conversation standing in the middle of the local primary school yard!
Seriously though, GingerGirl, you know I love and value you as a friend, but knock it off, ok? You forget Parfait and I hold the same views on evolution. I have no problem with your faith and your belief in God, and although I absolutely disagree with you on your beliefs in creationism, I keep my mouth shut about it when I talk to you, and if I engage in discussion about it on these boards, I try to remember "hey, Ginger's reading this too, keep it polite." Give Parfait shit for being an arrogant twat if you must, but if you're going to give him shit because he prefers scientific evidence, ongoing rational argument, and development and reappraisal of ideas based on new information and investigation to pure faith based on a 5,000 year old story, then try to remember, I'm standing in your range of fire too. Every time you lay into Parfait for his thoughts on evolution, I have to start biting my tongue; it's a conversation I *don't* want to have with you, simply because neither of us will get anything out of it but a disagreement. We're friends, we don't need it.
And Parfait - just shut the fuck up already, will you? You can't argue faith vs science and expect any kind of progress or positive outcome, and arguing the point again and again on a web forum is stupid. Definition of insanity - repeating the same action and expecting a different outcome. You may be smart, but by god are you a cocky, irritating twat. 'By their words they shall be known' is the only rule on-line. You've earned your reputation as an argumentative, agressive, thoughtless bully - kinda sad, because there's a lot you have to say on other subjects that's worth listening to. Try taking off the rubber troll mask for once - you might find it easier to be heard.
Why treat life as a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in an attractive & well-preserved body? Get there by skidding in sideways, a glass of wine in one hand, chocolate in the other, body totally worn out, screaming WOOHOO! What a ride!
