Solution to the creation/evolution debate...?

I believe we accept Canadian currency as well.

Not around here, we don't. That is a courtesy based on how close to the border you are.

After all, the people of San Francisco happily accepted Joshua Norton's homemade money, and he was a certifiable wackjob.

But don't focus on the money, focus on the slogan.

I did -- I talked about its meaning and origin. You ignored it as inconvenient.

I could have just as easily posted this:

But then you'd be harping on stone, wouldn't you? ;)

But you didn't -- you predictably went straight to the money.

Or this:

But then you'd be harping on metal, wouldn't you? ;) ;)

I'd simply be reminding you that the fear came first, then the slogan on the money, then the rest.

1950s America already had its devil ("godless" Communism), so it recruited a god... and customized him as needed.

In Amerigod We Trust... or will you allow نثق في الله to be said in this country?

Meanwhile, AV, you still have contributed nothing to the"solution to the creation/evolution debate." As the thread was more or less a bust from the get-go, this is hardly surprising or disappointing.

I realize that.

But the context of the conversation should dictate what to focus on.

In which case, you've been a distraction since you got here...

Ya ... from a secular pov. And a negative one at that.

Only a quarter of it: to highlight the slogan.

Ah ... cause and effect? Interesting. Happy Easter!

There you go, equating human lives with the almighty dollar... thanks for the QED.

Ya ... from a secular pov. And a negative one at that.

What did you expect from a secularist in a secular country?

More like I ignored it as academic classroom cliché.

Thanks for another QED. Truth was inconvenient, so you dismissed it.

Only a quarter of it: to highlight the slogan.

Looked more like a nickel of it to me. ;)

But unfortunately, in order to seek truth, one must look at all the facts, it just the ones you want us to focus on...

obviously your interest here is not to seek truth, but you must have realized I'm not going to ignore something just because you insist?

Ah ... cause and effect? Interesting.

Indeed.

Led by Hollywood and Academia. What happened?

Led by the HUAC... Hollywood and Academia being their prime targets... and later their useful tools.

Not everyone shares your desire for pointless martyrdom, AV...
Did God finally put a stop to it?

Not in any meaningful way, but I will admit, when those hearings became televised, and the American people saw what was being done in their name, the Bible became quite prophetic -- John 3:20, to be precise.

Campaigning, are you?

Clearly you're not anymore -- so thanks for yet another QED.

Would you know it if I did?

I would indeed if you ever did.

Fret not, however -- I suspect your streak is in no danger of being broken

The Solution to the creation/evolution debate is on His way. Easy peasy. Thread has been answered.

It's encouraging to see you accept your imminent defeat so blithely.

Density and buoyancy do nothing to explain motion without gravity.
[pedantic] There's no such thing as zero gravity in the technical sense. [/pedantic]

Right. But FullMoon thinks there's no such thing as gravity, and that it can all be explained by density and buoyancy instead. Which is nonsensical.

Maybe these will help:
Moon Landing Hoax Apollo 11 Astronaut Buzz Admits Apollo is Fake (~1min)
https://www.bit(-)chute.com/video/PIJuRIqqdTDD/
NASA Astronaut runs from swearing on The Bible that he walked on the moon (~1min)
https://www.bit(-)chute.com/video/pjvnpB4axCy0/
Buzz Aldrin in an Interview (With His Handler Controlling the Narrative!) Fake Apollo Moon Landing (~3min)
https://www.bit(-)chute.com/video/cTyYNSDmzMY6/
Note: remove "(-)" from links.

There are plenty of videos showing the moon landing is fake.
Plenty of faked and not-very-carefully edited videos. In the first one a little girl asks, "Why nobody has been to the moon in such a long time" and Aldrin says that's his question. He's saying nobody has gone to the moon for a long time and he'd like to know why.

[bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]ute appears to be a video junk heap. If you're taking any of that stuff seriously, you'll be easy meat for scammers - be careful out there.

I have proof Buzz Aldrin is also a fake.

Sometimes it's fun to out-conspiracy the conspiracy theorists...

"The Moon landings were faked!"

"What... You actually believe we really have a Moon?"

Well if it comes from a science classroom, it has to be a possibility, doesn't it?

Only if they're in the habit of waiting until there is at least a logical reason to believe it... which they are.

Your envy is showing; you might want to tuck it back in.
