As in the last thread, he is provided with an avalanche of cited material and explanations and will completely ignore it. Meanwhile he will search for any minuscule exception or oddity and point it out without looking any further. It really is just a more "intelligent" god of the gaps argument. (pun intended) I know I am supposed to soldier on because others might benefit to see his arguments ripped to shreds but it becomes ridiculous at some point.
It really does highlight the uneven field that theists and ID proponents want to play on. They've set themselves up as interrogators, where we have to provide all this evidence for them, but all they have to do is poke single holes in it. In order to win, we need to have a perfect, comprehensive overview of absolutely everything concerning the specific topic, and for them to win, all they've got to do is find one flaw?
Meanwhile, they get to sit back, content to never provide evidence for their beliefs. It's ridiculous.
