Honestly, this place has the best Mods on any message board I post on.
I think it is because this place is run by liberals.
It reminds me of the internet of 5-10 years ago (when it was all liberals).
The reason is because I rarely agree with anyone on any site, I am the heel, the devils advocate (seen as a troll by morons, but there is a difference if you have a brain).
On a conservative run site, they just ignore logic, and censor you and ban you, they don't care.
On a liberal site, they just call you names, and tell you how stupid you are, and suspend you. You have to be a total ass to get banned, and most of the time they will let you come back even if they banned you last week.
So yeah, no complaints here, keep up the good work you cat loving liberal commies.

Well, yes, liberals run things best. If only everything was run by liberals. That would be awesome.

Cats are good, m'kay?

The above ontological example models the zero premise to BB theory. It does so by applying the relative uniformity assumption that the alleged zero event eventually ontologically progressed from the compressed alleged sub-microscopic chaos to bloom/expand into all of the present observable order, more than it models the Biblical record evidence for the existence of Jehovah, the maximal Biblical god designer.
-Attributed to Buzsaw Message 53
Moreover that view is a blatantly anti-relativistic one. I'm rather inclined to think that space being relative to time and time relative to location should make such a naive hankering to pin-point an ultimate origin of anything, an aspiration that is not even wrong.
Well, Larni, let's say I much better know what I don't want to say than how exactly say what I do.

How the FUCK is my Message 7 off topic, PD? Last I checked, the topic at hand was about literal interpretations and I directly addressed that. You just really don't like when atheists call the bible or christians on bullshit, do you?

And again in Message 9. An explanation would be grand, PD.

Forum Rule#10
Its rule 10, Hooah. We expect civility out of intelligent people.

Re: Forum Rule#10
I fail to see how I violated ANY rule, let alone rule #10.

personally, I thought this topic more appropriate for Faith/Belief.

Re: Forum Rule#10
Would you (or any other mod/admin/member) care to tell me HOW I violated any rule? Or should we just have faith/belief that PD has acted appropriately?

Address the Topic Presented
The OP of a topic presents the argument and sets the tone for the debate, not the title.
GDR made a very specific argument about inconsistencies in the Bible. Just because the thread is on the science side doesn't mean it has to be devoid of religious reasoning. It just means that evidence needs to be provided to support the reasoning. Opponents can't just say, because I believe it or because I don't believe it.
The Accuracy and Inerrancy thread allows a more critical look at the Bible and who wrote it.
GDR makes the argument that the Bible is written by men.
His thread is aimed at literalists/fundamentalists. Keep that in mind.
You didn't present and support a position concerning what he presented. You just did your standard rant and ridiculous questions.
So far all you're doing is attacking GDR. Argue the position, not the person.
If you don't feel his position supports the idea that the Bible is written by men, then provide your own argument and support.
If you don't feel the scripture he shared is inconsistent, then make your position known with support. If you feel they are inconsistent but for a different reason, then make your position known with support.
Pay attention to his argument.
When it comes to Bible discussions, your "arguments" tend to be devoid of support and evidence.
quote:
You just really don't like when atheists call the bible or christians on bullshit, do you?
Not when it doesn't have anything to do with the argument or position presented and it's pretty much just additional bullshit. It pulls the thread off track. On the science side, you don't just get to call bullshit either. You have to provide support and evidence.
Pay attention to the arguments presented.

Hooah banned
Message 146
Considering the extensive (but unsuccessful) efforts that BFT has made to explain the fucking obvious! - it is not much of a surprise that some members have started showing their frustration at the la-la-la-I-can't-hear-you attitude shown by PD.
And then to give Hooah a week-long ban for a post that is actually correct is bullshit.
Edited by Panda, : No reason given.

Yep - unbelievable. I was pissed off when I saw it was a ban, before I even noticed it was for an effin week!!!! I might ask what the hell is going on, but looking at the source of the ban, I guess it's just business as usual

Occupy EVC!! Free Hooah!!
It is amazing to me that he got suspended for a week. Artie does worse every time he posts and it takes weeks for him to get suspended and I think his longest suspension was 96 hours. Compare a post by Dawn with Hooah's post and you will find a them similar. RE: Butterfly referred to as Mallethead and countless more.
PD needs to grow a thicker skin and Moose needs to use reason in his moderation.
A suspension well may have been called for(I don't see it, but I am not a mod), but a week is extremely excessive for what he posted.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Hooah Unbanned
Adminnemooseus is usually responsive to requests for clemency or commutation, and as he hasn't responded I assume he's tied up or is busy with real life. I've restored Hooah's permissions.
