Mr. Shaw seems to be trying to express an admiration for science.

I share that admiration.

He seems to be expressing a contempt for creationism.

I share that contempt.

He is also ignoring Max's instruction.

"You are free to be anything you want EXCEPT unkind, impolite, argumentative, snooty, or either FOR or AGAINST that of-what-we-do-not-speak."

I have agreed to abide by that instruction.

It irritates me to see such disrespect for Max and the other members of this forum.

It also irritates me to see Mr. Shaw expresses his opinions on science in such an unscientific and illogical way.

I hope that pete forgives me if I can get Mr Shaw to curtail his rants. I believe that would rob pete of many small victories.
