In all my years here, Rocket, I've only ever managed to bring -one- single creationist's head out of their asses, despite the unambiguous, inarguable, and completely public information regarding both Modern Synth and the fraud perpetrated by that organization for no reason other than political gain. Don't get your hopes up. It's the reason I joined the boards, initially - after having been a lurker for a bit. I was naive enough to think that the things these people say actually inform their beliefs about -what- they say. They don't, they're just fucking with you. Even after conceding both the evidence and the fraud......said creationist still didn't "believe" in evolution. Probably still doesn't.
You can't reason someone out of something they didn't reason themselves into..and you can't dissuade someone of something -by- evidence that they didn't persuade themselves of -with- evidence.....in my experience.

In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
