I just seen this message from a poster "I dont think bias is the problem i think PRATTS are a problem so many creo ideas have been refuted a gazzilion times that it is better for their belief if they dont visit such sites. "
So, my question is are the Creationists intruding here or is it an equal place to come to as far as Creationists and Evo's? IS there really a bias? Or is it simply a site for both parties to discuss topics? It seems already to me that Evo's feel they run the place and Creationists are morons who shouldn't be here. Am I wrong?
This website is the most objective, the least biased in its moderation and rules of any web forum I have ever participated in.
Posts are not deleted or edited by the moderation staff, except in the case of spam.
Posters with just about any viewpoint are welcome to post their views and their reasons for them.
The only real rule is that you do need to be able to support your claims with evidence. Depending on which section of the site you're posting in, sometimes that includes the Bible, and other times it does not. This is where most posters run into trouble - Creationist and otherwise alike. There are Creationists who post to science threads where the only evidence accepted is actual scientifically acceptable study, and they post Biblical quotes and interpretations. This tends to get them in trouble.
The EvC debate seems to have quieted down in general since the Dover decision - it's just not as popular a topic of discussion, except in a few specific circles. At least that's my impression.
The closest thing we have to a bias at this site is, as mentioned, we simply have a numerical disparity among posters that strongly favors the evolution0-supporting points of view. That's not to say this is just an echo chamber - even among the evolution supporters, we have a wide variety of beliefs represented, from Christians to Deists to Agnostics to Atheists and so on, with posters occupying just about every location on the political spectrum from a variety of nations.
EvCforum.net is an excellent place to be exposed to different points of view in a carefully moderated environment, where your experience will be decided more by your ability to
support your views than by what those views specifically are. It's a [i]great[/]i place to learn, about various different theologies, debating in general, how to react to opposing viewpoints, and just about any field of science (right here on the forum we have actual physicists, mathematicians, biologists, archeologists, paleontologists, geologists, and more),
Hope you decide to stick around!
