Re: Question 6
Mod, I hope you won't hold that against me...if I actually do understand the trajectory of your reply. Bird flu?

Question #7
At any given moment, try clicking on All Topics for a list of current discussions. Take the top 20 topics and determine how many of them have something to do with evolution v. creationism. Quite often you will find that none of the top-20 topics have anything at all to do with EvC. The vast majority of them will be about religious nonsense. But I don't care about religious nonsense. I care about scientific nonsense. So my question #7 is: Why do the Admins promote so much religious nonsense when there is plenty of scientific nonsense to discuss? Maybe this forum should be renamed "GvU": God v. Unbelievers. IMO, the true believers are nothing but sacks of lead shot in our bright ballon of reason”the one still trying to get off the ground.

... if there isn't enough discussion on scientific topics, then start more.
bren, I try to, but meatloafs like AdminWounded keep shooting them down. They're a bunch of bloody pirates who hate intellectuals.

But nonsense knows no bounds, which is why we have members of a supposedly "scientific" bent who think some mystical hand is behind every chemical reaction.
No, not every one. Just the one's that need digital codes to kick-start their molecular engines.

It is rare for people to question my indomitable will without consequence. This time it will be merely a distant cousin:- one of those short-eared specimens that prowl around here at night - that suffers at my wrath.
From AdminModulous' link re: Short-eared owls:
quote:
Short-eared owls are medium sized owls with mottled brown bodies, pale under-wings and yellow eyes. They are commonly seen hunting during the day.
​
Tsk.
Should I take this personally, bird-wise?

Perhaps it has a lot to do with the contention of Admin and others that there is no Biblical ID creation science.
And how could there be? True believership and scientific objectivism are at opposite ends of the intellectual stick. I've never met a true believer who could see over the wall of blind faith.
