But you never establish that it's illogic. You just argue that it is for a couple posts, then after that everyone who still disagrees is subjected to accusations of intellectual dishonesty, of being indoctrinated, etc.
Just a bare assertion on your part. Read the thread and respond with factual discourse. Stating as admin on an unmoderated thread that I am wrong when you do not actually address the facts on the thread strikes me as a bit desperate.
Read the TO stuff I posted here. Mick makes a good point that there is no way a creationist or IDer would get away with posting such bunk here, and yet TO is often touted and defended here.
Read Jar's website he recommends. It makes the same error. Evos here on EvC continually make the same error as well, and this basic fallacy underlies the oft repeated claim that "evolution" is demonstrated when in reality evolution as common descent (ToE) is not demonstrated by peppered moths, finches, etc, etc,....
The simple fact is the claim you say I have not demonstrated has been amply demonstrated on this thread and remains unrefuted, and you have offered nothing but a bare assertion devoid of facts or heck, even argument.
If you wish to make a claim, please back it up.
Additionally, Showcase is an unmoderated forum, and so complaints even from an admin such as yourself about how I choose to make my points or that my language is overly provocative, insulting or whatever in your eyes really have no place here, according to your own rules.
It's inappropiate for you to say the forum is to be self-moderated and then come on here and complain about something, and moreover, to do it in a false manner since the illogic claim is the OP and all the discussions on the thread to date have led to a general consensus that indeed this is fallacious. The only real question is to what extent this is indicative of the majority of evos or the underlying logic of ToE in general.
If you have an on-topic comment, please contribute, preferably as percy and not admin.
If you are changing the rules of Showcase to shut out debate, then don't grandstand about how somehow posts of mine here are outside of the rules. They are within the rules of Showcase you laid out, my friend.
