I just read in Message 97 that Buzsaw has been readmitted.
Allow me to be the first one to welcome you back in our midst, Buz!

Allow me to be the first one to welcome you back in our midst, Buz!
Many thanks, my friend. You and other debate counterparts have shown yourselves to be genuinely gracious debate counterparts as shown in your very kind words expressed on my behalf in the suspension thread. May God bless you all for your kindness to me.

SFN (Science Forums And Debate)
I've been posting on SFN science forums. I very much like it's formant and setup. It's about twice the size of EvC and has some features which I've suggested to Percy via email which he might find helpful here at EvC, such as one click quote setup for replies and a Pseudoscience forum for alternative science views from mainstream establishment stuff which a lot of us consider as being oppressively domineering in the science arena, so powerfully enrenched that alternative views are being censored out as, imo, is being perpetrated here at EvC by admin.
I've emailed Percy, thanking him for reinstating some of my priviledges and asked him to show specifically what forum guidelines were broken by me to warrant having me suddenly permanently banned after having been here for two years without even one suspension in all that time. Imo, unless the arguments I've presented on science debate can be imperically falsified it is certainly unfair and counterproductive to lively and fair science debate to keep my ID arguments banned from science forum debate. Until Percy and Co. can understand that, anyone who wishes to debate ID creationist science vs evolutionist BB science with buzsaw, you all will need to do so over at SFN, where I'm allowed to debate my ID science views freely and unsensored. I'm presently engaged in Space Ends thread at SFN, and my main counterpart, Blackhole needs some help supporting his pro arguments on that topic.

I'm glad you're back buz, but I'm none too happy that your posting privileges are limited to certain non-science forums. Don't get me wrong; I think that when it comes to science you're downright cuckoo. Still, your crazy ideas serve a purpose, if nothing more than to force the scientists among us to explain scientific theories and concepts from every conceivable angle in layman's terms. Very often I myself learn something from the scientific responses to you.
In other words, you may be somewhat crazy, but your craziness can sometimes serve - if in a roundabout way - to educate. I do think that sometimes you go too far in that you're either incapable or unwilling to understand the responses put to you. But it's still true that before you get to the point of being disruptive you often make good points that force the evo side to explain themselves better.
Perhaps Percy might explore the possibility of banning members from specific threads rather than forums. That way no specific forum would need to be off-limits to you, but once you (or any other member, for that matter) become disruptive within a thread then that specific thread could be made off-limits to you.

I for one would not be opposed to that. I think it might be interesting.

Hi Berberry. Thanks much. You make good sense, even if you think I have some crazy and cookoo thinking. Hey, I think of the BB idea that every existing thing in the entire universe allegedly once expanded out from a submicroscopic singularity area billions of times smaller than the proton of an atom (as Rich Gore of Nat'l Geographic once put it) as an outlandishly crazy tale, so we both have some suspicions about one another as believing crazy and cookoo stuff.

Speaking of which, since you are one of our older members, I'd appreciate your input in the job and age thread I started. Thanks.

Re: SFN (Science Forums And Debate)
Hey...glad to see you back, Buzsaw! Just chill and relax! It may be true that EvC does not tackle the BIG issues the way that you are given freedom at that other site, but life here does not always have to be so serious.
The blessing that EvC has given me has come from some of your posts in which you prayed for us and were humble.
The blessing at EvC comes from the synthesis of divergent points of view expressed by humans with heart.
Perhaps this is evidence of not only an intelligent designer but a very compassionate one.
As I communicate with people whom I disagree with, I find an odd sense of agreement anyway. Love must cover a multitude of sins!
Anywho....glad that you are back!

Re: SFN (Science Forums And Debate)
I think the pseudoscience forum could be an excellent idea.
(welcome back).

Re: SFN (Science Forums And Debate)
You fundies do thrive on persecution dont you!
All this mocking is a great self-fulfilling prophecy.
Welcome back Buz, you should stick to the theology forums anyway, this science stuff is way too boring.
Good to have you back.
Brian.
