Forum: Creation/Evolution Miscellany Thread: Author: I Am Not An Atheist! Message #: 303, with honorable mentions for the following messages 304 and 305 I find message 303 as being exceptionally well done, and the other two also being pretty good. Moose Professor, geology, Whatsamatta U Evolution - Changes in the environment, caused by the interactions of the components of the environment. "Do not meddle in the affairs of cats, for they are subtle and will piss on your computer." - Bruce Graham "The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness." - John Kenneth Galbraith "Yesterday on Fox News, commentator Glenn Beck said that he believes President Obama is a racist. To be fair, every time you watch Glenn Beck, it does get a little easier to hate white people." - Conan O'Brien "I know a little about a lot of things, and a lot about a few things, but I'm highly ignorant about everything." - Moose

This is a nomination I might have made; I'd likely have drawn a suspension for so doing. Bravo! Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison.

My nomination is totally sincere - It's not snark. I think there is substantial on-topic material there. Minnemooseus Unfortunately, it has led to discussion of such things as the general merits of the intelligent design concept, rather than such things as the relationship between deism and the intelligent design concept. As I see it, the first is off-topic while the second is on-topic. All messages there should have some explicit connection to deism. Adminnemooseus PLEASE, NO REPLIES TO THIS TOPIC. Go to "The Whine List" if you wish to dispute my position. Members can respond to my message 2, IF they wish to second the nomination.

I nominate this post not for any high-brow reasons - I simply enjoyed reading it.
