That is correct, but we are chugging this rolling train wreck toward the magic 100 mark so that we can par-TEEEEEH!

There had better be some good music. I like the oldies, you know, Bach Beethoven, Debussy. Listz is good too.

No, of course not. I'd be as willfully oblivious to reality as she is if I still believed that it was possible to provide any sort of evidence that she'd be willing to accept.

Re: A revolution in thought
I think I get it. It's like alphabetical sudoku. 7 sets of the first 15 letters of the alphabet. Not sure how they're supposed to be arranged, since "so that each of the 15 different letters on a line and in all 35 groups would never be twice with any other letter" sounds like something someone put through google translate a few times.
Perhaps you could describe how these 105 blocks are to be arranged more clearly, peacegirl?

Re: A revolution in thought
This is pretty much an exemplar of any discussion of a crackpot theory with a True Believer. I see it with creatards who want to believe in a Global Flood, or deny evolution. They make a statement like, "there's no evidence for evolution," you bury them in the evidence, and they make the same statement again.
The True Believer [Tm.--Ed.] never evaluates the evidence. He will try to twist it to fit the crackpot theory. The attempts to manipulate extend to semantic massage: "evolution is a theory " which means it is just a "guess" or the crackpot theory must be seen as equal to it.
We have seen such weak rhetoric from peacegirl.

Are you telling me it took you 96 pages to notice this? I saw this on another forum, I thought it would be obvious from the first couple of pages. 96 pages is ridiculous.

Naw, we've been referring to her as a True Believer pretty-much from the beginning. It didn't take very long for her to establish her True Believer credentials.

I've seen this before with evolution and it only demonstrates the ignorance of what a scientific theory really is.

I don't think I can agree with this, I would rather think that we shouldn't pretend to be something we are not. I don't care who said it, it could still be wrong.

That's kind of the point. We shouldn't pretend to be what we aren't.
More to the point, perhaps, is that we generally like to pretend that we're better than we truly are in our interactions with others. Wouldn't it be better to work to make oneself into a truly better person, rather than just pretending to be a better person?
Also, that wasn't me that you quoted above. ...
