Tesla Suspended 3 Days
Hi Tesla,
First, this isn't the right thread for exploring the nature of the fabric of the universe. More appropriate would be What is "the fabric" of space-time?.
Second, I'm suspending you for three days for continuing to contribute unintelligible posts. My suggestion remains that you learn some cosmology before attempting to discuss it.
Please, no replies.

Summation Time
Even though this thread is way past 300 messages, I was inclined to leave it open because it was stimulating the presentation of a lot of useful information. What seemed especially useful was that the same information was presented repeatedly, but by different people at different levels of sophistication and using different analogies.
But this thread is beginning to increasingly focus on the difficulty some participants are having in grasping the concepts, and so this is probably a good time to bring this thread to a close.
So please begin posting your summations, and here are the rules:
  1. Do not reply to any post, including other people's summations. Use the general reply button that appears at the top and bottom of the page.
  2. Make the subject something like "My Summation" or "What I thought of this thread" or anything along those lines.
  3. Post only one summation.
  4. In your summation do not refer to or address the contents of any prior summation from someone else. Address only what they've said in the main body of the thread.
  5. No one should post more than one message after this point, and that message should be a summation.
  6. If you do accidentally reply to someone or post more than one summation, just edit your message and delete the contents before I see it.
  7. Please let moderators handle violations of these conditions, do not attempt to deal with them yourself.
  8. Violation of any of these conditions will result in a 24 hours suspension.

To Tesla and Rob,
You're probably reading this because you're wondering why you were suspended for 24 hours. Please read the above two messages and also Message 391. I regret having to suspend you, but I gave you every opportunity to correct your mistakes.
Hopefully this will be a lesson to you both. What we see is that all the evolutionists who posted summations were able to follow instructions and none of the creationists. Whether from sloppiness, stupidity or sheer orneriness I don't know, but you two are certainly consistent, and hopefully you'll both take this as an indication that you could do better, not just in posting summations but in your contributions in all threads.
Science isn't something you can just make up as you go along. It takes a large investment in time and effort before the interconnectedness of many facts and observations begin to take shape within your mind, enabling you to see the reasonable and possible implications.
As always, please, no replies to this message. See you tomorrow night.
