Fundamentalist Smarts

Post by Doug »

DOUG
For those who follow these sorts of things, a bottom-of-the-barrel fundamentalist whom I roasted last summer has challenged me to debate again on the Internet Infidels Discussion Board. Some readers may recall that I roasted this fellow last summer on that discussion board. Now he wants to debate on one of the issues we had already covered in that previous debate. He's still smarting from taking his medicine last year.

See here.
"We could have done something important Max. We could have fought child abuse or Republicans!" --Oona Hart (played by Victoria Foyt), in the 1995 movie "Last Summer in the Hamptons."

I think you are wise to be shying away from this somewhat. He has proven himself an absolute joke and an poor excuse for a debator.
Unfortunately, he will probably publicly proclaim that you have refused to debate him on this topic.

why would he want to debate you on the same subject that you roasted him before? Doesn't make sense...

Since when does being a fundamentalist make sense? Obviously, Gastrich doesn't put any stock in sense.

He probably thinks he has some absolutely show-stopper new evidence (or 20-20 hindsight about what he "shoulda said") - take him down on a day when you'd like to bite something but can't get to it.

He already tried that with a 20-minute "concluding remarks" addition to the phone debate he lost to Doug. He doesn't play by the rules, so we won't pretend that he will.

That's part of the joy of being a fundie - you make up the rules as you go along. Or rather, rule number one is fundies win. Reality has nothing to do with it.
