"Whatever one thinks about the validity or otherwise of his arguments, Kent Davis has achieved one very important result.

He has given us an object lesson in presenting a generally unpopular viewpoint calmly, politely and with unwavering good humour."

I'd have to disagree with you there, Don. It's true that Mr Kent has been polite, but the 'argument'/explanation that he presented at the top of this thread was really designed to shut down debate (God created the Universe recently; mere mortals can't understand the mind of God; anyone who says different is deluded; the end). To my mind that is mere 'mindless' dogmatism - no matter how calmly, politely or humourously it may be presented.
