Dr. Adequate writes: So now we get to read the new improved version of your post ... no, it's still awful. Dr Adequate, I don't consider you to be a troll, but this here's a classic example of a trollish message; a one liner saying narry a bloomed thing about what in my message was false, poorly articulated or otherwise awful. See, Doc, this is the kind of trollish yada that Admin, PaulK et al blame me for when it's you people and the trolls who drag out and slow down the forward movement of threads. It not only comes from the classic trolls, but from good members like you, Coyote et al. So please tell the www some substantitive things about my awful message. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

Well, for starters it's "primordial", not "pre-mordial." "Yada" isn't a noun that means babble, it's an onomatopoeia that describes the sound of nonsense babbling (as in the phrase "yada yada yada.") It makes no more sense to say that something "is yada" than it does to say that "the rooster is cock-a-doodle-do."
Objective folks know that everything temporal has a before, an outside of and a time in which to have happened. Objective people would know that energy must needs have had no beginning as per 1LoT. You say this, but you offer no evidence to support these positions or any authority by which we should believe them, because I suspect you think they're "self-evident." But they're not. The Laws of Thermodynamics apply to thermodynamic systems which, from the name, even you should be able to glean are systems where heat is moving. It took a hundred years and the invention of the steam engine to elucidate the laws of thermodynamics, but for some reason you think you can understand them based on creationist websites.
Some folks are objective enough to understand that for a tiny nation of Jews could be scattered globally for over 19 centuries to return to their itty bitty land and become a powerful nation of identifiable Jews again precisely as prophesied by ancient prophets. Here's a sentence where the front half doesn't match the back half, you've got this massive subjunctive clause "Some folks... understand that for a tiny nation of Jews..." and then you don't go on to connect anything to that. It's like you forgot halfway through what point you were trying to make.
Some folks are objective enough to read all of the other corroborating fulfilled prophecies that Buz has cited and go figure that the Bible has more credence. than the BB, Singularity and natural origin of life. There's enough criticism of your supposed "prophecy" to which you've never replied - I believe I have a post I wrote about it in 2003 that you've never responded to - that I won't repeat those rebuttals here. This thread is about "posting styles" and I'm trying to highlight the ways in which your efforts at communication are not typically successful. Number one, as I continually tell you, is your constant indulgence of "word-of-the-day calendar"-type verbosity, almost always paired with a failure to actually use those terms correctly. I mean you're not only not understanding the definition of the term, somehow you manage ignorance of what part of speech the word actually is - noun, verb, adjective, none of it seems to matter to you. The result, frequently, is a post that reads like a parody of Jabberwocky.

Do you realize that 9 out of 10 topics you post this stuff in you are off topic? Do you realize what the topic of this discussion is? Did you also realize that this topic is not about floods or exodus's or any of your other conspiracy theories? Do you realize that this is a thread for pointing out and discussing ways to effectively communicate ones position?
If you want to talk about moderator bias, you should talk about the bias in your favor. Mythology is what we call someone else’s religion. Joseph Campbell

Objective people, having read and assembled all of the evidence Buz has cited for the Biblical record would know why they support Buz. If you can find one lurker who agrees with you I will fly to the US and spend the day helping you down tread the various social groups you disapprove of.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 The explain to them any scientific investigation that explains the existence of things qualifies as science and as an explanation-Attributed to Dawn Bertot Message 286 Does a query (thats a question Stile) that uses this physical reality, to look for an answer to its existence and properties become theoretical, considering its deductive conclusions are based against objective verifiable realities.-Attributed to Dawn Bertot Message 134

So I don't think any of us are effective individually. I think if it's anything it's the overall existence of a place like EvC where the collective argument is the most effective. I don't think we can define effective as convincing Buzsaw or Bertot that orange juice is of an orange color. My goal in debating is to get the ridiculous underpinnings of their arguments in writing and straight from the horses hooves in a matter that others can appreciate. Normally those posters are quite obliging. I think posters like Wounded King, Son Goku, cavediver and Dr. Adequate are quite effective using that measure.Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison. The proper place to-day, the only place which Massachusetts has provided for her freer and less desponding spirits, is in her prisons, to be put out and locked out of the State by her own act, as they have already put themselves out by their principles. Thoreau: Civil Disobedience (1846)

Careful there, this is just such a message that would make me give up lurking, just to fuck with you.
Ah hell, I already gave it up... Damn!

Jesus Fucking Christ, Buz.
The words are "site", "expected", and "whose". Can't afford a dictionary on the government dole?

quote: I think that anyone who reads it can see that it's far worse than the post that you are objecting to. The bragging is bad enough (and false enough) even before it turns nasty.
quote: No, it isn't. We can just skim over those posts without much effect at all. And we certainly don't blame you for other people's posts. Indeed, since the lack of progress seems to be your idea of successful debate, shouldn't you be thanking Dr. Adequate for helping you, if he really was slowing the debate to any noticeable degree?

Buz writes: Objective people, having read and assembled all of the evidence Buz has cited for the Biblical record would know why they support Buz. Good point Buz, do you have a link to a message where I can look at ANY evidence Buz has cited for the Biblical record ?
Buz writes: Some folks are objective enough to understand that for a tiny nation of Jews could be scattered globally for over 19 centuries to return to their itty bitty land and become a powerful nation of identifiable Jews again precisely as prophesied by ancient prophets. Good point Buz, can you give us the Chapter and Verse that precisely prophesied the Jewish return?

Just a thought ...
The topic is effective posting styles, and in my mind one of the MOST effective elements of a good posting style is staying on topic, and not letting yourself get drawn off into side issues.
