Teddy Roosevelt would be thrown out of the modern (there's an oxymoron) republicunt party. So would Eisenhower. So would Reagan.
Reagan for the sin of reaching across the isle and working with Tip O'Neal.

I think there is something about continuing to ignore questions, but I don't think it's banworthy. Just give it time, he/she will get tired and eventually fly back to her coop to strut around and claim victory. And that's all it is, they're not here for debate, they're here to get a smug sense of satisfaction that they argued with godless atheists who were unable to prove them wrong.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

It was either crockoduck or retarded fish-frog time.
Crockoduck won out.

Said one, "I can't believe there are people this stupid in the world."
I consider it an ongoing teachable moment for my kids on the dangers of Christian belief. Grace is one of the best "recruiting tools" atheists could wish for. Please let the idiocy continue.
Come on now guys, Grace's stupidity is not caused by her christianity, she is just naturally stupid and so was drawn towards it. Its a result of stupidity, not a cause

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

I posted that same picture a while back in this thread, so I wish you'd done the retarded fish frog. Well, here goes:

So you have observed abiogenesis in the lab?
Are you saying there are no mutations?
If they are not errors what are they? purposeful new design.
Have you observed one kind having an offspring of another kind?
