If you visit some of our more vociferous opponents’ websites that is the question being asked. The answer, of course, is that I am not stifling rational argument on this site. In fact, just the opposite is true; my purpose has been to weed out those who refuse to engage in rational argument so that rational argument can be pursued by those who remain.My moderation policy is very different. I allow comments from creationists in spite of the fact that they are incapable of engaging in rational argument.
Creationists, by definition, are incapable of being rational in this debate. Isn't it ironic that they set themselves up as the arbitrators of rational argument?
There's a good reason why we refer to this controversy as a contest between rationalism and superstition.
