Even handed?
Was searching for a discussion on 2LoT, found this.
EvC Forum: Second Law of Thermodynamics
Note Admin's message 16, If that's not a prime example of even handedness I don't know what is, I would be astounded if a creo site afforded the same equality to the evolutionist argument...

"Might be annoyed" is pregnant with implications that it takes willful obtuseness to miss.
Faith, that's a mighty big chip you got on your shoulder...
It could be said that Hitler might have been annoyed with churchill, does that imply he was right?
It could be said that some football hooligans might be annoyed with their opposition, does that imply they are right?
It could be said that The IRA mioght be annoyed with the UVF or bice versa... it does not imply that either side are justified or correct.
dig your self out of your firmly entrenched position for a moment, take part in the debate, argue your points. Calling people crazy, or questioning their common sense does not contribute to the discussion.
You do your message a great disservice.

Re: Even handed?
Indeed, and admin's call for a halt to evo responses, to ensure fair representation of the ID/creo side is a prime example of the even handedness, and even bias in FAVOUR of creationists to ensure both sides of the argument get an airing...

"goddidit" is not evidence
iano writes:
And if someone wants to say "Godidit" then that is as good an evidence as any.
I don't see how this can be true... this is anassertion, not evidence. you then need to provide evidence to back up this assertion, or show how the evidence led you to this conclusion.
dictionary.com writes:
1. A thing or things helpful in forming a conclusion or judgment: The broken window was evidence that a burglary had taken place. Scientists weigh the evidence for and against a hypothesis.
2. Something indicative; an outward sign: evidence of grief on a mourner's face.
'goddidit' is not evidence.
