Refuting the illogic of "intelligent design" and creationism. An illustrated guide to fallacies of logic.

ad nauseam

Ad nauseam arguments rely upon the tactic of stating and restating a claim until all opponents have tired of refuting it. This is akin to a verbal war of attrition.

It is necessary to resort to ad nauseam arguments when their is little or no logical or empirical support for a position. However, repeating the truth of accurate premises, established facts, or well-supported theories in answer to ad nauseam nonsense does not constitute fallacious ad nauseam.
