jack the sailor-you are quite right in surmising that the terms i use are not derogatory but descriptive .i did once use "evos" for shorthand until penny suggested that was disrepectful, so i ceased that even though it was only shorthand.meanwhile certain atheists-or should that be antitheists- continue to bemoan debating ignoramouses such as i but still exhibit argument from ridicule-or should that be verbal gutrot!.
a couple other comments made me smile
"pete et al "hardly a large opposition to the darwinist side.
"someone else prompting him" wrong,unless you include my reading.
all this reminds me of dawkins who likes to debate creationists;-as long as they are not scientists!.supposedly he does'nt want to give credance to creationism.
thats not to say that some of you would not debate a scientist,but merely that all you got at present is me.i have never pretended to be more than i am and to those who dispise my honesty all i can say is-
get over it.
best wishes   pete.
