This is why I don't like debating religion

I think Runa is right, best to just step aside and allow you to live in blissful ignorance, unfortunately I've been sucked in too many times. 

I'd lie if I said I didn't learn something from you throughout the thread, but your insults have, overall, made my chat with you feel like one of the biggest wastes of time I've ever experienced.

That's because you made me feel insulted and kept trying to put me down. Is there something you need to boost in yourself such that you need to put others down and laugh at them and shit?

I thought so.

 

 I was very calm at first, simply told the mods to deal with you and they did. Then, I stooped to your level and I regret it. It's a shame I don't have more self-control. But you, dsgrue, you are the reason why Christians remain ignorant. Because people like you alienate them from their right to learn, even things that MAY not be true. Tap yourself on the back and enjoy your thumping on the believers, I'm sure you'll feel very accomplished by the end of your life.

have absolutely no reason to offer respect to someone

This is a recipe for disaster. If you cannot manage to have some respect in a DEBATE, then don't debate at all. The number one rule in a debate is to respect eachother even if you have completely different opinions. Sure, happydolphin has proven to be a bit unknowledgeble when it comes to evolutionary sciences but if you refuse to respect him you lose by default.

Respect is earned, not given.  If what you're saying is complete nonsense, I'm not going to give you the benefit of the doubt just because you're my peer. if you were making claims that were respectful and intelligent, you'd never, ever see me so aggressive.  Grew up with plenty of intelligent people that were able to have civil, intelligent debates about hot topics like this without resorting to such silly nonsense;  you are not one of those people (at least in my experience.)  

I have plenty of respect for people who have earned it, or have proven to not be ignorant fools on a topic they clearly know next to nothing about.  

Probably going to get banned for that becuase you're a report happy  user, but nothing I've said has been wrong, and nothing I said was anything more than a well-rationed observation on your ability to debate.  if you can't handle criticism on your ability to debate/discuss sensitive topics, don't bother getting into an argument with people.  Simple as that.  

This is my last post to you.  Don't bother responding becuase I won't read it.  I've said my piece, and I have nothing more to discuss with you, as you have nothing of value to say on the subject.
