This is what I have thought, too. Something JJ obviously craves is being recognized as an innovative thinker, which is why he hangs onto ideas no one else would at this stage, ideas that are manifestly silly. He tries to make it look like something else with all the noise about atheist ideology, which is blocking him from being acknowledged as an innovative thinker, who sees beyond the obvious, the evidence.


Yup, and that's where it becomes perverse. Perhaps if he floated this idea in a kooky creationist community, he might garner some accolades. Yet he opts to try these ideas out here, with the people he accuses of being blinded by ideology to reject his contentions, then explains away the failings of his arguments on that factor.

Even at face value and ignoring how nonsensical this is, it would still represent something equivalent to masochism.
