Entirely around the bend...

Why do I feel as though the infamous crocoduck is going to make an appearance soon?

In other words, the mountains were however tall they needed to be in order for your argument to work.

The Mahabharata is also an historic manuscript many thousands of years old - even older than Christianity. Since ancient Indians believed the story to be real, it must be historically true. That is evidence enough for you. Better convert to Hinduism quick!

I believe you are using a fallacy of putting someone down as if that proves your position.

The main fallacy you've recently been using is Argumentum ad hominem or attacking the person as if that proves your point.

Another fallacy I can think of you are using is: Argumentum ad nauseam where you repeat the same ole thing over and over again.

You have also used: Argumentum ad numerum as if majority on your side proves anything. I'll throw in Argumentum ad poplulum too.

I am actually intellectual by choice about it.

Some people deserve a Shirina Shellacking (TM). The problem is, since they are not even in the same scholastic zip code as Shirina, they have no idea of just how thoroughly she destroys them. But it sure is entertaining to watch.

Here is a scientific report by Christians on fossils and the problems with evolution:

The Fossil Record

It is in the UK. See, the truth is getting out. You people who believe in evolution just need to study more. You know, keep up to date on these things.

And this is what the UK is forcing teachers to cram down the throats of children:

Teaching Evolution in Primary Schools

The govt. wants it taught that we are just animals. What's next? Extermination of the little rodents?
No wonder people have a hard time believing the historic account of God creating Adam and Eve they way He said He did in the Bible. These children are brainwashed from early on and can't see the truth if it hit them between the eyes. And I no longer wonder why there are so many here fighting creationism.

There's only one cure for deliberate obtuseness.

Unfortunately, it requires honest self-examination and sadly, most sufferers do not possess the strength of character required.
