I have to put my appreciation here after all. It is esp. gratifying to see a thread started with the sophisticated rigor we expect of science rather than a more casual approach. If we had a vote for the Post of the Year, mick, you'd have mine.

Faith Articulates Argument Artfully
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Perceptions of Reality Member: Faith Forum: Faith & Belief Topic: YEC vs EVO Presuppositions/Methodology Message: 252 Faith is responding to RAZD's statement pertaining to respective arguments:
Faith writes: Of course, but my objective IS to frame it as narrowly and precisely as posssible in order to demonstrate the defining conflict between Biblical creationism and scientific evolutionism, and that CAN fairly be called the "classical argument here. Reducing it to individual differences will simply obscure the whole point. You have some other objective and I'm not sure what it is, but mine is to show this central conflict and really, it does seem to me it gets at the root of it. It's very simple and it IS symmetrical: The scientific evolutionist side says science must judge the Bible; the Biblical creationist side says the Bible must judge science. {Made the "252" a clickable link. - Adminnemooseus} This message has been edited by Adminnemooseus, 11-26-2005 12:26 PM

Mike the Wiz, at the "The Clergy Project" topic
Name: Mike the Wiz Forum: In The News Thread: The Clergy Project Post #: 30 Includes:
I'm happy to say at least, that a literal interpretation of scripture that specifically excludes evolutionary science, is infact something which cannot be supported by any reasonable person, IMHO. Such an exclusive ideology on what God says, is heavily biased, and infact no man can claim to understand scripture this thoroughly, IMHO. God would be asking us to observe something in nature, which appears to happen, according to the evidence, as false. He would be asking me to dismiss the causality of honest atheists/theists etc, which led them to such brilliantly clever findings. I support the previous nomination of a Faith message. The (IMO misplaced/off-topic) Mike the Wiz message functions as commentary on Faith's position, and I suggested to Mike that it would be better in Faith's topic. Perhaps Mike should offer up a variation of his message, as a new "Proposed New Topic". Regardless, the cited content should not be debated in the POTM forum. Moose

Spirited defense of spiritless world
Name: robinrohan Forum: Social Issues and Creation/Evolution Thread: In defense of nihilism Post #: 1 Thoughtful, eloquent, and hysterically funny. Thank goodness (or blank indifference) that robin never chose to start a cult. He pens a wicked bible.

Re: Spirited defense of spiritless world
Seconded. Although I might argue with the proper definition of nihilism, Robin states at the outset that it is a personal definition being used within the post. I thought it was an extremely creative way to explore the perspective of those without a belief in an objective meaning to the world. Is it my imagination or are the quality of posts escalating since the Poster of the Year thread came out?
