"we're all entitled to our delusions, but serially insulting scientists,.."

**IF** it's a delusion, it's not necessarily an insult. An insult, to my way of thinking, is intentional. And if one is entitled to a delusion, he should also be free to defend it as best he can.

"He clearly relishes your exchanges yet he does not alter his position one inch." What a surprise! After all, he "has a delusion"! Maybe if I YELL AT HIM IN CAPITALS he will change!

Let me have MY delusion and just conduct a debate about evolution & such. I state the premises about it pretty strongly, hoping that any drop-ins will see the science prevailing over the religious circular reasoning.

"You and pete are nothing if not fun to behold."

Well.. glad to be of service.... now, 'shhhh' just watch and giggle. (If Pete returns to this next week)
