Re: Double Standards - Faith
I must say that I really don't like how violent your avatar is.
I understand the "meaning", but I really don't like watching someone get shot in the back of the head over and over again.

The indulgence of the insults by Admin began at that point in order to keep me here. I guess being a Fundy YEC I'm rare enough for someone to want to keep me around and put up with the insults long enough to set me up to abuse me properly when the time comes.
I really don't think that you got the short end of the insult stick here, faith.
You gave out a lot more in terms of invective and sheer volume of abuse than you ever received.
A lot more.

Re: Double Standards - Faith
obstructionist
I am not familar with this word, I think you have just made it up
No, faith didn't just make up the term.
It's been in use for quite a long time here in the US.
It means to have a general principle of getting in the way with the purpose to obstruct something getting done, usually referring to politics or interpersonal discussion.
"The Democrats' obstructionist tactics prevented the Republicans from passing the bill.
Edited to fix a shameful number of typos.

A LOT Of what is accepted as scientific here is truly stupid, I mean that literally, it is stupid, it is sophomoric, it is almost a parody of science but it is accepted as science while an extremely well reasoned argument from the other side of the fence is dismissed out of hand as not scientific.
Well, Faith, I started a thread for you to discuss this very issue regarding specific scientific claims that you made, but you never responded.
I am still more than willing:
Are the ToE and GTT imposed upon or products of science?

Added by edit: I would be more than happy to not participate at all in the above thread if my presence is keeping you from answering the question.

Schraf indulges in abusive interrogation tactics worthy of the KGB perhaps, or the Grand Inquisitor, or a demented adolescent version thereof, but not science, useless nitpicking with no creditable objective. She's possibly but not necessarily the worst of the lot here. The pretense that any of that has anything to do with science is the most abusive thing done here.
So, what does everyone else think?
Do I have "Vays ov makink you talk?"
