CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
How many creationist here think that atheism and evolution go together?

If the Bible says it is true then it is true. The Bible is 100% dependable.

If it breaks when it is 2 meter (6 feet) it will definitely break if it is 200 meters - simple physics says so.
Real science you know, not bilical science that make things work by magic, you know, talking snake and dead sticks that turn into snake, and other kind of magic stuff.

It sure looks like Moses was a better boat builder then your crew.
Better fire them and hire someone that knows what they are doing.

Very wrong.
Because of its extreme length and wood construction, Wyoming tended to flex in heavy seas, which would cause the long planks to twist and buckle, thereby allowing sea water to intrude into the hold. Wyoming had to use pumps to keep its hold relatively free of water. In March 1924, it foundered in heavy seas and sank with the loss of all hands.

Circular reasoning is a logical fallacy.

Frankly, I don't care if joshua believe Noah's boat can float or not. Even if it can survive the worse storm ever imaginable it still does not give more credit to the story about the Flood since multiple independent lines of evidence show it did not even happen, or it happen like thousands of times - like once every 2-3 year for the past 5-6 thousand years - that is between all the thousands of volcano eruptions that also took place..
Strangle enough it has not been a single world wide flood during my life time, or modern known history for the past thousands years for that sake. Therefore the flood must had been even more frequently in the past, maybe once every month or so... Who knows? Ask the bible experts, they know everything...
Next thing these people gonna tell me is the fact that the Flood is real (Superman exists), because if the boat can float (Superman dresses exists) it implies the Flood (Superman) is real. Why else would the boat (Superman dresses) exist it wasn't for the fact that the Flood (Superman) is real?
It is all logical (no magic here just science!) and it so much more makes sense to me now when God have filled me with His divine wisdom...

But I don't agree, the evidence doesn't tell us anything about why joshua respond as he do. He may just act like that to trip people off, i.e. doing it for fun, because obviously it will do. Or it can be that he just want to see how people react to it - why would he not enjoy also to study how people react to things - it is quite telling about a persons intellectual maturity how you react. So maybe he just test people, to decide who he wants to spend time to discuss more serious with. I can make up a lot of other reasons as well, but that is not the point. The point is, one can speculate (like you indicated that you did) but what is the point in such speculations else than telling yourself that you are right and he is wrong, i.e. you are only ventilating a frustration.
All we know is that he plays with the net down when he serves...

Sure he is wrong when he says that, but I pointed out that you cannot known why he is wrong. Still you insist you know. But how does being wrong prove intention? It is not obvious to me why joshua writes what he does. In other words, you claim to posses some kind of knowledge of him which I don't have. Well, then, show it to me. Or wait, you said "it is obvious" - did you perhaps meant to say "it was revealed" to you?
Do you see where I am getting with this? You are making your self guilty to the same erroneous reasoning you accuse joshua of.
