Moderator Request
It would really help discussion if participants would take the time and effort to say what they mean and mean what they say, and to make sure that it is on-topic. If necessary I'll issue short suspensions to whoever ties up this thread, and at least one other that I've noticed so far, with off-topic side-discussions of what they really meant.

Please keep discussion focused on the topic. Complaints should be posted at Windsor castle. I'm going to be enforcing this request.
​
No replies, please.

No you asserted that.
​
And your rebuttal to the assertion is?
​
Rebuttals normally address evidence or reasoning or both. Since you've provided neither as yet, there is nothing to rebut.
​
Replies subsequent to DrJones's Message 111 raise a number of objections that you can use to introduce your evidence and reasoning.

Re: We know there is a God because...
Hi Rob,
​
I'm ruling the nature of science off-topic in this thread. If you require more than just a couple posts to introduce some novel approach to the topic, you should probably propose a new thread over at [forum=-25].

Re: Who couldn't see it?
Hi CTD,
​
You were already suspended by the time I noticed this message, so I'll take no further action but just post this note.
​
Please engage the discussion sincerely and seriously. If you can fill a response with no more than bluster ("I already did provide the method.") and reactions to feelings of pique ("Do you know what ratios are?") then please do not post.

Re: Rob Suspended for 24 Hours
You're right. I tried to place that comment in the proper context last night, but I apparently just wasn't able to line things up.
​
Normally I'd prefer there be no replies to moderator notices, unless they're requested, but in this case I badly misinterpreted what he was saying.
​
Sorry, Rob, reversing your suspension now, but please make things easy on the moderation team in the future. There's only three moderators now.
