Quote from: "Sophus"DNA wasn't invented yet!
That reminds me of a quote I once saw on fundies say the darndest things:
DNA means deoxyribonucleic ACID.  If that stuff was real and inside you, you'd be dead.
Sad thing is that most fundamentalists are truly ignorant of science and how the scientific process works - and are encouraged to stay that way by their pastors and other church leadership.  

As I left christianty behind and started reading about what evolution really was and about science in general really was, I was amazed.  Everything I was told was just plain wrong.  godistruth, I hope you open your mind to the possibility that you are wrong and try to learn what science actually is.

When dealing with trolls, I find it's best to speak with them as if they're my mother. I speak with respect while still getting whatever point across in a straightforward way with a minimum of snark.
I want bad people to look forward to and celebrate the day I die, because if they don't, I'm not living up to my potential.

If I came across that way, it was not my intent.  I was only speaking from my own experience as a former fundamentalist christian.

Wouldn't work as a general rule though, now would it..? "Talk like to mother", that is... Too dependent on how different people talk to their mothers

Correct. How would talking to them as if they were dead help  :hmm:

I get Will's point though. Shouting at a troll is exactly what they want and exactly what you don't want.

Which is exactly wht I wouldn't want to talk to them like they were my mother, even though I don't shout - I just know which levers to press for maximum effect.  :D

Will is a nice guy. I'm sure he talks to his mother in a very nice way. :)
QuoteI find it mistifying that in this age of information, some people still deny the scientific history of our existence.

I don't think he was referring to you Velma.  :)

Quote from: "godistruth"Not believing in the Christian god is one thing, but not believing in any god is beyond my mind!

Ok, I believe in Lancor, the god of chocolate brownies.... in fact I think I'll go worship him now... yum

Why would you deny your creator? the one being that brought life and happiness into this world.

I don't deny my Mother and Father, do you?

We did'nt come from monkeys.

Apparently, you have never been to one of my family reunions.

The big bang is just a mythical story that you poor souls tell yourselves to keep denying god.

No, the big bang was an orgy I heard about when I was in college; I didn't go because I was busy worshiping god.  Damn it, now you know why I'm an atheist now.
You must accept god! please...I do not want anyone to go to hell!

Too late, I was married to Satan for 20 years, I did my time in hell.  Your god don't scare me none, you want to see hell, I'll give you her number.

Please, my brothers and sisters, Join Christianity!

Join them for what, are we going on a picnic?  How about a march for equal rights for homosexuals, I'll join you for that.  But you said you didn't care if we believed in the Christian god, you just said A god... How about Zeus, he sounds like a good one, or any of the other tens of thousands of gods.. tell you what, YOU pick one, just not your boring old Christian god, he reeks.
