Talk.Origins is a bot-moderated usenet group dominated by promoters of the theory of evolution.

Talk.Origins is renowned for having its own jargon. Examples include:

"fundy loon" - anyone who believes in God or mentions the Bible. Short for the derogatory "fundamentalist lunatic."

"moving the goalposts" - expecting an evolutionist to progress to step 2 of an argument

"goddidit" or "god of the gaps" - derisive terms for God doing anything

"spaghetti monster" - a peculiar parody of religion
