Corollary: Creationists have always been impervious to logic, evidence, and reason.
The natural question, then, is how they can debate Creationism without any of those things. It's surprising how many people consider what boils down to "Because I said so" a valid argument.
I love how AV's so darn proud of his ignorance.
Pride is a sin (Proverbs 11:2). As, incidentally, is ignorance (Proverbs 2).
I found this stuck to my monitor today:

(1) So clearly evolution is true because the not says so.
(2) We know the note is true because it was written by God.
(3) We know it was written by God because the note says so.
(4) And we have already proved the note it true in step (2).
What fundie can fail to be convinced by such an argument?
This guy actually stumbled on to some truth. There is no way you can believe in Creationism if you make deductions using logic or reason based on the evidence.
Creationists by definition don't deduce anything.
I guess without logic, evidence and reason, creationism must rely on "binary emotionalism", ignorance, superstition and gullibility.
In that case, it's a waste of time. If a science branch wannabe wants to be legitimate, it has to be one of those things. Otherwise, that's not legitimate.
I nominate this guy for a "Nut In A Fundamentalism Shell" Award. At least he's honest here in admitting that he's ignorant, illogical, and irrational, and that we're just the opposite. The infuriating thing is that he's still so darned self-righteously smug about it, as if ignorance, illogic, and irrationality were virtues to be proud of. It boggles the mind.

Fine then, since we can't use logical reasoning on you, creationism isn't true because of purple monkey dishwasher.
Have fun disproving that.
You can't hurt this guy, or his beliefs, with logic, evidence and reason. I wouldn't be surprised if he considers them evil.
@Old Viking: if he's not a parody, he's 100% certifiably batshit insane. I want to believe the former, because if he's on the level, there are actually people walking the earth who consciously regard consistent logic, reason and intellect, as well as their accomplishments, as evils to be stamped out.
Wait a minute- you sly godless heathen, you! Getting all the other godless folk around here all worked up- because they fail to see the delicious cleverness of your little joke! I couldn't have said it better myself! Just so everyone else gets it:
"[Delusion has always been impervious to logic, evidence, and reason.]
As it should."
Get it, guys n' gals? Aw, c'mon- let's admit it; we got our chains pulled pretty good there, for a minute.
(Being whispered to)
...What? He MEANS it, as in proudly strutting forth with such a statement? Well, in that case...
(Ahem) -Hey, AV! Did you you know that if you put a plastic crucifix in your right back pocket, and run at full speed back and forth across a busy highway ten times in a row with your eyes closed, not only will you emerge unscathed, but Jesus will give you ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS for every successful dash of faith across that highway! It's absolutely true! The code buried in Martin Luther's writings is proof! You know, that warm, loving, peace-filled tract entitled, "The Jews And Their Lies"? Yeah, that good ol' Luther... a fine, sparkling example of Christian love. Maybe he learned it from the Old Testament. Nothing like getting back to basics!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
