If you’ve haven’t been reading along in the original post, you won’t know that the name of the book “_” is verbatim from his text of part 16. One would hope the poster would correct that but it is unintentionally funny and demonstrative on how much real evidence bible literalists and young earth creationists have. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 7 – more geology and creationist “credentials”

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 6 – Geology and the burden of proof
In 14 (of the original post here), our Christian reveals that river floods aren’t worldwide. Great shock to all of you, I know. After finding this bit of the glaringly obvious, he then declares that while ancient people knew this kind of flood, they certainly wouldn’t mistake it for a global flood “even after the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 6 – Geology and the burden of proof
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 5 – Not so much geology but dueling myths
We are now at section 13. One can see the desperation rise noticeably. I’ve posted the typed text of his post at the end of this paragraph, rather than put it into the body of the blog post. It’s a pdf of sections 13-18 (so I’ll be referring to it in subsequent posts). Be warned, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 5 – Not so much geology but dueling myths
From the Bar and Kitchen – Pizza break
A pizza break to get away from the stultifying theist nonsense and give my poor eyes a rest. This weekend’s meal and a movie is homemade pizza and “The Spirit”. The movie, “The Spirit” is from 2008. It was a riff on what made Sin City popular, stylized graphics, hyperviolence and a distinctly noir feel. … Continue reading From the Bar and Kitchen – Pizza break
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The Illegible Post, Part 4 – On population bottlenecks and honesty
In this installment of “just how silly can this get”, we have our Christian making some claims about science in some detail and in general. “#11 This population bottleneck is a matter of genuine science and the excuse for it not being true is probably just as valid as any second rate blogger’s posts can … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The Illegible Post, Part 4 – On population bottlenecks and honesty
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The illegible post, part 3 – On fictional characters and the nature of reality
Here’s a quoted section from the Illegible Post. It’s obviously not completely illegible since I can indeed recognize letters of the alphabet in it. However, comprehension is quite an effort when it comes to our current Christian’s writing. I’ve broken it up a bit to try to isolate individual points for the sake of clarity. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The illegible post, part 3 – On fictional characters and the nature of reality
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The illegible post, part 2 – on aliens and things
“You know there are probably no “rocks” on Alpha Centauri since it’s a star, but maybe it has a planetary system. No aliens in the Biblical perspective because God made the earth to be inhabited and the heavens above it for His glory, not for life. Fine the extraterrestrial critter and prove that it’s not … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The illegible post, part 2 – on aliens and things
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The illegible post, part 1
So here we are with the first installment of the review of a Christian’s blog post. The numbers in his post seem to be meaningless since I have used no such numbering in mine. It is anyone’s guess what he might be referring to when, for instance, he claims we agree on something. I believe … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – The illegible post, part 1
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Prepare yourselves folks
Our current guest Christian, Woody, has decided to post his rebuttal to my flood post on his website. It's not up yet but should be soon and he's even promised a video! He has given me a preview which I am sharing here. He has declared that anyone who tries to comment on this on … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Prepare yourselves folks
From the Kitchen – Chicken Fajitas and a bad movie to go
When I was growing up, rather than listening to the rock and roll of the 80s, I was listening to soundtracks. For whatever reason, the rock that I love now just wasn’t interesting then. My brother listened to it, and his dear sister had to allay his fears that listening to rock wasn’t “Satanic”. He … Continue reading From the Kitchen – Chicken Fajitas and a bad movie to go
