I just don't want you to be disappointed because you were expecting me to show up.

Children. Children. Calm down. Don't be trolls, and don't feed the trolls.

That said, ignorance is nothing to be proud of. *thumbs nose childishly*

AVET thinks the universe revolves around him... or at least, this forum revolves around him

That way God will know that AV isn't going to be there. In case God was afraid his most ardent follower would accidentally allow his pure and clean mind to be sullied by information.

I mean, just look at the abominations being presented at this upcoming Houston forum:

what evidence exists for evolution
why understanding the nature of science and historical science is necessary for understanding evolution
what we can learn from the fossil record
why fossils are so important to our understanding of both the pattern and process of evolution
the differences between science and intelligent design
how evolution is essential to the health and progress of a modern society

They are going to present evidence and context and information on how science works.

It is far more important to debate scientists when one doesn't know the science. Just like I'm sure AV is more than happy to hear people who've never bothered to crack open the Bible criticize Christianity . I bet AV is the most forebearant person when something like that happens.

ALSO: In case God does decide to go all "Sodom-n-Gomorrah" on Houston because of this, it's a good thing for all Christians of pure virtuous heart to notify God that they won't be there.

Because you felt the need to tell him you were not going to a seminar in Houston Texas, even though you live in Guam.

Your sarcasm aside, I'm sure the good boys in Houston don't spend their time here on the Internet telling us God doesn't exist, the Ark wasn't seaworthy, and four-legged grasshoppers never existed. If the good boys in Houston would like to attend a Missler seminar on Steeling the Mind of America, then maybe, just mabye, I'll think about attending a seminar on evolution - (but don't count on it).
