T o p i c !
Sorry, Rusty, Crash, Behe and ID are not the subject of this thread. Crash started leading this astray but there is not need to follow him off into the bush.
ID is under another forum. If you wish to propose a topic for that or add to one that is currently there please do Rusty.

Rusty, Crash! Behave!
I suggest that you two (Rusty and Crash) are haveing a small problem getting things clear with each other.
You conversation hasn't really gotten started. I suggest that you both go slowly and avoid phrases like "don't believe you" and commenting on the others ability to understand counter arguments.
Ok? Thanks.
Just slow down and give each other a chance to clarify what you mean.

We don't delete messages
Thanks Kelly, putting a message like yours is the correct thing to do.
We all make the mistake of double posting now and then. But leaving the message makes it clear that the whole thread is still intact with no missing mystery messages.
{Added note from Adminnemooseus - We did have one instance where about 8 messages in a row were all duplicates. That was the rare case where I actually did entirely delete the extras. In that instance, commentary from both myself and the message originator made it clear that a bunch of duplicates had indeed been posted. Also, I think the string of "replies to" messages might have been preserved at the replied to message.}

One point (ok it turned into several)
Well, I'm not, and I don't. I don't believe that "beasts of the field" is an antonym of "cattle". You've given me no reason to believe it, so why should I?
However, it was also pointed out that "all animals" being included in "beasts of the field" was an overstatment.
Perhaps you should both try to establish just what "beasts of the field means". In addition, reference to the original Hebrew was made.
If there are arguments over the quality of the translation being used it may be necessary to back up to the details of translation or why one uses a particular translation.
It seems that Kelly and you may not be as far apart as some people here are. After all Kelly is already saying that the Bible that we have, since it is not the original writings and has, perhaps, had translation mistakes it can't be taken as totally inerrhant. With that agreement in hand perhaps you can discuss the details without so much fuss.

Re: Shorten the signature, third warning
And that, among others was changed when it was suggested. Without all the histrionics of the childish.

That too was not really necessary.
A bit of patience please. Especially with someone who doesn't really deserve it.

Some support
Since, Crash, you already acknowledge not being an expert you should supply the evidence that you were asked for. Should anyway actually.

I misunderstood
dpardo has agreed that the breaks were inserted then?
So I think it is dpardo's turn to explain why something not in the "original" can't be disregarded.
