Thanks to Percy for the welcome back to my old cyberbud and faithful encourager, MikeTheWhiz and me. Greetings to all of you, my old friends, as well as new folks who've come on since my departure, some months ago.
I am presently posting some on TWeb and my activity here may be limited. Nevertheless I am grateful that when I do wish to participate, that it is again allowed.
Sincerely, buzsaw

Hey buz!
Welcome back! Your post is interesting, but ... it spreads across lots of issues across lots of forums. It would be really helpful if you put your comments in the "appropriate" places.
Here's my suggestions:
Lastly, I'd like to suggest the introduction of a pseudoscience forum on this board for alternative science views which is not considered by admins bonafide science. I know there's the ID forum, but it seems that often when literal Biblical ID was argued, creationists were suspended from that forum. I've done little reading on this website, so am not aware of much going on, though I did read the Faith/moderator thread and some of a couple of others.
Open a new topic in "Suggestions and Questions" if you're serious about this. You can title it "Pseudoscience Forum?" or something like that.
I'd like to encourage Faith to remain as moderator and the great asset to the fundamentalist Biblical creationist viewpoint that she has been on this board.
This would be great in the "Welcome, AdminFaith" thread in the "Announcements" forum.
I only ask that if problems arise that I would be aforded the same treatment everyone else gets here of temporary suspension rather than sudden permanent banning to try and work things out. In over three years that I posted actively I've yet to be suspended and will try hard to conduct myself in such a manner by adherance to forum guidelines in order that this clean record will hold. I know that I frustrate Percy and others at times with some stuff considered off the wall, but hey, isn't diversity what makes things lively and interesting? Yah, sure, says Percy.
This would be a great comment for the "General comments..." thread that you can link via my signature below.
If we take those administrative-type comments out and put them in the "right" spots, then you can feel free to open up a new thread in the Coffee House to say "Hi I'm Back!!" at your own leisure.
Thanks Buz, and welcome back...

    OP Edit
    Thanks Ben. I've edited my op and will deal with the other when I have time. I've got to get use to the structured procedures here again. My apologies, and will be careful in this regard hereafter.

    Hi Phat. Thanks. We've Biblical understandings and other stuff that doesn't jell, but that doesn't mean we can't be friends and get along discussing things.

    No need to apologize. The best way to get your points addressed is to put them where discussion is already happening on similar things. I'm just trying to point you in those directions
