Straggler already nomited this in a thread of his own (see here)
But I agree with him so here is his original post again:
Straggler writes:
I would like to nominate Bluejay's post Message 17
I really like Bluejay's rational and considered approach to theistic evolution despite the fact I do not totally agree with his position.
His chaperoning of an overly forthright new member (many of us were just such as this once upon a time) is also to be commended.
I also suggest closing his version of the thread.

I hunt for the truth

dwise1 --- wise indeed
Message 93
An excellent post warning us to be careful. It should warn some to avoid the "SDI" (Satan did it) argument.
But it will as usual fall on ears that are either deaf or not backed up by any processing.
ABE thanks to kjsimons for pointing out my oops

Modulus...
...for Message 124 in the Percy is a Deist - Now what's the difference between a deist and an atheist? thread.
Mod effectively and accurately dismantles RAZD's strawman of atheism.

Re: Modulus...
Yes seconded.
From a completely subjective point of view. There are some posts that I just agree with to such an extent that I wish I could have thought clearly enough and expressed myself well enough to have written myself.
This is one of those.
In truth I don't think it is one of Mod's most eloquent posts (that says more about the consistently high quality of his contributions than it does about this particular entry mind) but from the point of view of one taking the atheistic stance in this particular debate he has succinctly said exactly what needs to be said.
Any debate that involves two posters of the quality of Modulus and RAZD (both regular POTM nominees) in complete disagreement and going head to head has got to be worth seeing...........
Could I suck any more arse if I tried.................? Probably not
