Evolution experts needed...

This seems to be a very long thread. Is there any specific point that caught your attention or are you going to make me read the whole thing?
 
Ooops. Heavy editing. So... you can cut and paste, but you can't post links?

If they start bibbling on about the second law of thermodynamics, cut and paste this guy . So nice to hear a Christian denouncing Creationist nonsense as morally wrong.

It is quite a long thread. Is there anything in particular you want to shoot down?

OK, just look at the last couple of pages, or the last one. I reply as much as I can but there are certain, presumably pseudoscientific, arguments that I don't even understand - perhaps that is their intention?
Look at what kbombbilly says after he was given the link with a theory for the evolution of the flagellum. Or what this other guy says about systems uncapable of naturally produce more information.
It would be great if more pro-evolution folks register and start replying. There is still a debate going on irreducible complexity (it seems to be the last resort of ID, everything ends there).
 
I see in the terms of service that they don't permit links to sites that teach against Christianity, but neither the theory of evolution nor the talkorigins archive is anti-Christian, and the talkorigins archive specifically discusses Christians who consider evolution compatible with their faith. True there are some Christians that dispute compatibilism (AiG), but that amounts to judging another Christian's faith.

Have they actually ruled on talkorigins as a banned site specifically?

Yes! They have mentioned that in the last page of the thread or so. They claim that it has anti-Christian content (!)
Their moderation is awfully arbitrary and the TOS suck. If they are so sure about what they believe in, why don't they let all voices be heard? I wish they'd be more willing to debate things in a more neutral place.
I still managed to criticize the Bible and Christianity.
For arguing ID / evolution there shouldn't be much trouble.

Every mutation and sexual recombination preduces new genetic information to be winnowed by natural selection.

Agreed. I used to hang out there, until they decided to close down the whole science forum, because they deemed it to have become anti-christian. They're a bunch of fanatical cowards.
 
Anything that goes against the belief system is anti-christian. I think the earth being round was seen as anti-christian at one time.

Yes, much better to not learn anything and just stick to age old made up stuff instead. Makes one want to deny them any advances, like electricity, computers, etc. They reject education, but not the advances it brings.

Perhaps, instead of trying to work around their TOS and arbitrary moderation, you should just tell them that their TOS is too restrictive to allow for a proper debate of the issue and invite them over to JREF to discuss the matter in a forum where the rules are more conducive to free and open intellectual debate.
