Reps: 1,955,410,478 (power: 1,955,418) | | | Is the moderation on this board fair? I am kinda wondering why this thread was closed for "review" days ago and never reopened: http://www.christianforums.com/t2997...so-stupid.html
It started out as a flame war and just when the participants started discussing CvsE it gets locked.
At the same time, a Creationist troll has been flagrantly violating the rules and he continues to do so.
I don't know if the moderators are busy and that is why the decisions seem ineffective.
I am not griping either. I am curious what is up and would like better discussions here

In some respects, science has far surpassed religion in delivering awe. How is it that hardly any major religion has looked at science and concluded, "This is better than we thought! The universe is much bigger than out prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant. God must be even greater than we dreamed"? Instead they say, "No, no, no!

They do not spend all of their time reading though all of the posts here. I think they tend just to respond to the complaints they get. If someone hits the "report" button, then they will look into it and make a decision as to what they should do. |

You could be a creationist and still think the board is in favor of the creationists. Unlikely, but possible. |

You can't edit the options once you click submit. So you are pretty much stuck. Originally Posted by Mocca By the way, I don't like your poll.

Reps: 6,295 (power: 15) | | | The reason it is not reopened is becuase I'm afraid to say it is an "unwritten" policy to stop debate on CF is to close a thread and then instead of doing what they say they will - they just let it sink hoping people forget about it.
I have been told by an ex CF Mod this is something that has been told to the Mods as a way of dealing with things. |

I followed it closely, and it started off with somebody quoting Hovindisms, and the author of the OP eventually discovering that Hovind is far less accurate than...
well...anyone... and agreeing. (Yeah, I know that is a simplification)
It was far more stimulating than some of the threads I have seen on this Board, and, as far as I can see, everybody lived happily ever after.

Then why is this particular Board headed "Creation & Evolution"? I would have thought that Evolution could be discussed on a Board that says "Evolution"
