When I was a kid, I remember arguing with religious adults by asking them questions that I thought would stump them or at least frustrate them, but most of the time they responded calmly and politely albeit with some gibberish about their imaginary god. I’ve noticed that now when I argue with creationists, they are the ones who ask me questions that they think will stump me or frustrate me and I’m the one responding in a calm and polite manner. Do you find this role reversal as interesting as I do?

No. Not particularly. This role reversal is only one of many up-side-down observances. All are in keeping with the times in which we live. I think that perhaps we should spend more time understanding the reference book and less time making up our own stories regarding our origin.

It's interesting that you've noticed this... but it doesn't surprise me at all. The fact is, the ones with true knowledge and authority are the ones that end up having to tolerate the childish questions of those who are less aware of the truth.

Take a trip down to your local insane asylum, many of the patients there are actually pretty calm and relaxed (possibly due to drugs though).

They will stick to their beliefs regardless of what you tell them, but it's really no point arguing with them and you feel too much pity to laugh at them.

It's still gibberish whether they rant and rave or maintain their cool.

Yes, and also be prepared to lose. Creationists are the only ones who have it right.

Adrift says 'cowgirl~up'

You? Calm, polite and rational when arguing? That I gotta see!

Nothing further needs to be said, really.
