Do you deny the fact that the moon falls away from the Earth at the rate of 3.8 centimeters per year? and Jesus flies around in the Millenium Falcon again? I'm glad to see you at least have the internet in there.
No wonder you believe in evolution.

I never said electricity was magic (just like most of the people you quote-mine from never meant what you make them out to have said) Do you deny the fact that the moon falls away from the Earth at the rate of 3.8 centimeters per year?
Do you deny centrifugal force? No wonder you believe in evolution.
You're right. It makes much less sense than a spacefaring Vishnu and his pal Enkai, giving cows to the Masai out the window of their flying saucer (quickly flying away to avoid being nuked by Pythagoras) |

Yes you did: http://www.christianforums.com/t7530897-6/#post56638479
You said the electric universe is magic. Do you deny centrifugal force?
You claim centrifugal force is the dominant force in the universe? Why don't we fly off the Earth then?

I didn't claim that. You'd think you'd be better at quoting people after having so much practice.
I think you'll find that the lengthening of the distance between the earth and the moon and the fact that we don't fly off into space are quite adequately explained by a combination of gravitational and centrifugal force.
How would you* explain these phenomena in your fantasy universe?
*you, not a collection of quotes cobbled together, none of which even approach making a coherent argument |

LOL.
In fact it is.
Your dichotomy is absurd and indicates a crank worldview.
Why do you think electricity is a crackpot theory?
Why do you think electrons are magic?
Because the atheist deity called "Gravitation" can't account for them?
Just because gravitation [the atheist god] can't explain electromagnetism doesn't mean electromagnetism is magic.

Dichotomy? Do you know what that word means? Why do you think electricity is a crackpot theory?
I don't Why do you think electrons are magic?

I thought we worshipped the Demon Lord Darwin. Try and keep track of your own lunacy! Just because gravitation [the atheist god] can't explain electromagnetism doesn't mean electromagnetism is magic.
And the zeroth law of thermodynamics can't explain friction. So what? Do you think you're being clever? |

I probably shouldn't ask but what does the recession of the moon due to tidal dissipation have to do with the arguments here?
