Now I understand why emotional, ad hominem tirades are tolerated on SAGG.

Shame! It could be a good science discuss forum.

I thought one of the essentials was respecting other people, and their views.

If Paul believes in 7 days of creation, he has every right to that belief, and to defend it.

If he does so in a way that is personally offensive to other members he should be taken to task for that. So should anyone else who demeans the forum by using similar tactics.

Anyone who has read Paul's posts must know that he is not going to "disappear with his tail between his legs". If causing any member of the forum to do that is anyone's objective, then I suggest that person is on the wrong forum.

There never was nothing.
