In all the threads started by Calypsis4, he has performed a world class Gish Gallop. This has been extremely frustrating for a number of regulars.
Everything Calypsis4 posts is either false, extremely dubious or christian apologetics. Also a vast part of his posts are off-topic.
I feel there is a need for a thread for people to address these issues without destroying the original threads. The original threads can be controlled to stay on topic, but this thread can be used to debunk his wide ranging assertions.
Calypsis4 is not here to debate. I try to remove myself totally from his threads, but a lot of his assertions demand a response.
If approved I would like the thread to be moderated for ad hominems and the such, but would need to be fairly free flowing in order to address all the assertions already presented on other threads.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

No topic theme present - Rejected
We (the various admins) have come to realize that Calpsis4 "Proposed New Topics" need to be screened better such that there is a much more specific topic theme. A topic titled and themed along the lines of "The Flood, fossils, & the geologic evidence" might as well been titled "Let's talk about anything related to geology and/or fossils". Which probably is what happened.
You're welcome to propose a new topic with the desired restricted topic theme. But what you put in message one amounts to "Let's talk anything Calypsis4"
Rejected, but I'll leave open for a little further discussion.
