This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.

    That is about par for the course. Jorge the great must see abject humility in those that approach him or he shall unleash his 'wrath'.

    I also would have listened to him.
    Until the first time he questioned your assumptions or conclusions. At which point he would have felt your 'wrath'.

    But I do have the advantage over Warfield - over 100 years of accumulated knowledge that Warfield did not have. Methinks that handicap is why Warfield held some of the beliefs that he did. We will never know, of course, but it would be great to know what his position would be if he knew what we know today. Of course, TEs/OECs like yourself do not have Warfield's excuse. You, O-Mudd, et al. are WILLINGLY ignorant and promoters of false/anti-Scriptural doctrine a.k.a. Evolutionism. How do you like them apples?

    Jorge
    Indeed you do Jorge. Thus you have no excuse whatsoever for your position. Warfield was convinced by far less evidence that you have available to you.

    The truth is Jorge, you'd have treated Warfield no differently that you do myself, Rogue or Kirk.

    My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

    If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

    This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

      And it generally gets unleashed after a couple of posts any way if the person still has the temerity not to bow before Jorge and the enlightenment he deigns to bestow on us lesser people.

Since then the cross correlating, corroborating, consilient positive evidence from dozens of independent and different scientific disciplines in support of evolution continuously pours in on literally a daily basis.

        IOW, Warfield lived back when one would have been far more justified in rejecting the scientific evidence in support of evolutionary theory than does someone today.

        The only response to the above that is deserved:

              For the sarcastically impaired the following is said in jest


              Yep - what Jorge doesn't understand is that from the very first day I arrived at TWEB I was absolutely bent on vilifying Jorge. And for no reason at all of course - I've just always had it in for him. And the fact he literally ignores 99.9% of all scientific evidence, refuses most of the time to discuss it, has determined that all Christians that are not YEC are at best marginal but probably not real Christians at all, sought a fake PH.D to augment his credentials on a book he co-wrote, wrote a paper offering a YEC 'solution' to asteroid impacts on the Earth that he's been shown a thousand ways from Sunday isn't worth the cost of the paper it would take to print it has NOTHING to do with it of course.

              No, and it would have nothing to do with a demonstrated lack of character, continuous boorish behavior, or anything like that as well.

              None of that plays into it - I assure you! I just have it in for Jorge. No other reason.

                No, I do not believe that you "just have it in for Jorge". I believe that you have it in for ALL Biblical Creationists.
                Jorge just happens to be the one accessible AND that does not cower AND that boldly calls a spade a spade.
                The combination of those three factors makes Jorge your personal "Public Enemy # 1" here on TWeb.
                The rest is just tactics and a ruse to distract whomever you (and your accomplices) can from the true issues and agendas.

                That is what I believe.

                None of that bothers me too much. Christ said it clearly (paraphrasing), 'They hate you because they hated Me first.'

                Yup, TEs/OECs don't much like the biblical Christ because the biblical Christ does not foot their bill and so they fashioned their own "Christ" to satisfy their ideological agenda. It irks the living snot out of TEs/OECs to hear that truth expressed so in-your-face. Oh well, they can take two Extra-Strength Excedrin and call their doctor in the morning.

                  This is just rich. So why do I have so many friends that are YEC?

                  You are not Public Enemy #1. But you are paranoid and misguided and very hostile. Our interactions are as volatile as they are primarily because of who you are. You're an abrasive person with visions of megalomania that also happens to be YEC. You don't get along with almost everyone who posts here, including fellow YEC's. You are such a hostile soul that I don't think I've seen you get three posts without an insult to any normal person that ever posted in this area.

                  The rest is just tactics and a ruse to distract whomever you (and your accomplices) can from the true issues and agendas.
                  Ah - yes - my 'hidden agenda!' - so hidden I don't even know what it is! Your paranoia seems to grow each day.

                  That is what I believe.
                  We know.

                  Believe me - you are not Christ. And your problems here are NOT because you 'speak the truth'. Your problems here are because you are obnoxious, rude, arrogant and ignorant. And the more you get called on your ignorance of science and the Bible, the more obnoxious, rude, and arrogant you become.

                  Jorge - anyone can produce a negative response by being rude, obnoxious, and arrogant. Your poor standing here is not a measure of your holiness. Quite the opposite.

                  But it is an interesting formula - be rude, obnoxious and arrogant. Get a lot of negative responses. Then claim the negative is because of your mighty faith and pure presentation of the Gospel.

                  It's a real riot. But it's also a horrible example of Christian behavior.

                        You are spending so much time here, not producing any information about information, that I seriously doubt you will be able to publish anything of sense on the topic, let alone any ground breaking idea.

                          As if you'd be able to tell one way or the other.

                          In any event, no, I don't spend "so much time here". I monitor my time carefully. Most of the nonsense posted on TWeb (such as yours above) can be dispensed in just a few minutes. I wish I got something of substance here that required serious time, reflection and debate. Alas, it's like trying to get blood out of a bag of dried turnips.

                          Lastly - and I've stated this before - I regard this place mostly as amusement. I come here, rattle the cages, and then stand back to listen to the shrieking and howling. It's quite funny, actually.

                          Okay, you may now resume your howling.

                            You never did answer my question on information, did you Jorge. You didn't even address my definition of it.

                              It's not my fault that you have a comprehension handicap.
                              Or maybe you will try to also pin that on me (?).

                                Point out where Jorge.

                                (You say you will address questions on information. So I ask about information in the context of DNA, and you "respond" by asking what I mean by information in the context of DNA.

                                That is a response, but it's not sensible.)

                                And I did define information in the context of DNA and you offered nothing by way of any response.
