[That's the problem. You need evidence to support ideas.]
Fine --- give it to me then.
That's what I'm asking you guys to produce.
Impress me --- tickle me pink --- do something.
Just don't give me that old worn-out cliche: It didn't happen.
(And don't contradict the Scriptures, either.) [wink emoticon]

Why don´t you get any evidence, YOU, instead of asking others to do, again the tough job, while enjoying the benefit of typing in this computer?
And don't contradict the Scriptures, either
I gather we aren't allowed to use the bible then?
Jacob, it is actually even worse than that. He isn't asking for evidence that disproves anything in the Bible. What he was actually asking for requires some explanation.
A while ago, the question, "where did all the excess water from the flood go?" was asked. Another poster, "dad" claimed that it was blown off the Earth and ended up on Mars (I think that quote has also been featured here). People were ridiculing this idea and that is when AV1611VET came and said something along the lines of "well why don't YOU tell us where the water went if you're so smart, and don't give me the excuse that there was no global flood so you don't have anything to explain." This quote is from a continuation of that discussion.
So as you can see this is even dumber than what it looks like. He somehow got the idea that in a debate, it is his opponents’ job to argue his position for him.
Where did all the flood waters go from the "great flood"? Gee that's easy, ask the Babylonians whose "Gilgamesh" the Jews stole "Noah's Ark" from , to ask the Sumerians whose "Atrahasis" the Babylonians stole "Gilgamesh" from!
Ah, so you want us to assume the flood did happen, and to come up with bizarre half-baked ideas about where all the water went, eh?
If I thought this were an exercise in hypotheticals, I'd be all for it. However, I know you're in denial of reality, so I won't bother with my sci-fi short story.
"I don't want those old facts, give me some new facts. Those old facts are so cliche. I mean seriously.
And don't you dare base your new facts in reality. Here, use this box of Cheez-it crackers and this book of toilet jokes to prove this 'I-came-from-a-monkey' crap."
'give me evidence. but only if it's never been used before and only if it doesn't contradict my interpretation of the bible.'
tell you what. you give us some evidence for creationism without relying on "but the bible saayyyss..." if you can do it we'll argue with you. until then, keep you mouth shut.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
