Warb, as someone who constantly reminds us of his Christianity you really should be careful about calling people with beliefs different than you own nuts.

Yes, the evidence available points in the opposite direction but if that makes lunar landing conspiracy ladies and gentlemen nuts it makes most people on the planet nuts to some degree, including the atheists.

Now, I agree Warbler gets over-eager in his descriptors. He also sometimes shuts down the possibility of debate by insisting something is obvious, thus making those who disagree nuts or blind or what-have-you....but I think it unfair to make any connection to his religious belief in this case.

1) In a colloquial sense "nuts" isn't that bad a descriptor. For instance, a jurisdiction in Ireland is now seeking to permit people to drink and drive. I wouldn't blame a person for calling those pushing for the law "nuts." As an emotional reaction it's not that bad.

2) Seriously, any time Warbler doesn't give due deference to an opposing viewpoint, it is fair game to invoke his religion?

3) Comparing religious belief to conspiracy theories is nuts :P Conspiracy theories are based on physical phenomena - usually involving making things up and assuming things that are demonstrably wrong. Religion is based on faith and on operations outside of the physical world. We can debate the real-world effects: evidence for a worldwide flood, why Kangaroos are only in Australia, etc but all of that is of a different quality.
