Natural Science 301 Guidelines

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.

As usual, Tweb rules apply. If you haven't read them now would be a good time.

    That's cuz JF is the only YEC with the cojones to dive into these scientific issues for which they have no ammunition. JF has no ammo either, but he makes enough racket that he hopes to scare us away like raccoons under the porch.

    The YEC/Deep Time and Deep History is so anachronistic, sort of like debating the value of bloodletting to treat inflammatory quinsy.

    It IS interesting to see if the YEC can come up with SOMETHING.

    Since their theological view of creation is based on an inerrant, infallible reading of the Genesis stories ueber Alles, I would at least like to see one try to give an unambiguous, direct, plain, simple, straightforward, literal reading of the Genesis stories.

    But so far no one has come forward. I mean if that Genesis reading trumps all of the science, shouldn't it at least by expounded someplace?

    I'd still love for this to be an insult free actual science forum. I'm willing to try again but it can't be just me making the effort.

    We both know there's one individual whose behavior is the catalyst for 99% of the poo that gets flung around here and his initials are JF.
    So don't play!

    I kept my part of the bargain until I saw zero response from your side. What did you guys do for your part?

    Deal?
    Report him if you see it. Rogue and I will be glad to deal with it.
