The lack of responses and negative scores on my comment show me that (1) it is easier to vote down a post than post a reasoned response, and (2) it is easier to scoff at opponents and think them fools than confront one's own self-deceptive behaviors, the very purpose of Luke's post.

No, it is simply that LW has covered these issues and considers them solved* and so downvotes/ignores people asserting otherwise.

*the weight of evidence points towards evolution, and every point proposed by proponents of creationism and ID has been refuted (do you have a distinctly novel and original argument for creationism/ID? If you don't, then you are wasting your time).
