  • 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.

Only Hector and John would be left. All of the "evil" evolutionists would be burned up.

The earth will be ignited one day, but it will not be for almost a billion years, when the sun turns into a red giant. By that time, we will probably have the technology to move the earth to a safer location.

Gluons, are they some sort paste

If Im correct, gluons are photon-like, intranuclear exchange particles, by which quarks (the internal constituents of hadrons) are held together, according to the theory of quantum chromodynamics, of which my knowledge is still primal. In this theory, quarks possess fractional (+ or -1/3)charge, manifest in 3 metaphorical "colours" - "red; green; blue" and their corresponding "anticolours". ..time's up, (7:30am)  I have to go to work - be back later to continue

back again now that duty is done....

yes - about our old mate, the gluon - basically, I consider the photonic exchange process to be a sort of quantum 'balancing of the books' type act, that where an exchange takes place, there has to be a reciprocal process in order that the internal equilibrium of symmetry in the hadron structure be conserved (nature abhors a vacuum principle).

That'll do for moment.

Oh, I see; well ok just gimme a bit of time and I'll try and - what- rephrase - no -paraphrase it some more.  Just that I have a somewhat different way of thinking and processing my conceptions and information than the conventional, linear/sequential style (not making excuses - its the way my mind is)  You see, I guess its a bit like the difference between viewing something from ground level and viewing it from high up, so to speak, because from there, one can see all at once - all very well but ugh, trying to condense and simplify such ' panorama ' into a few brief simplified sentences  - but we'll get there ;)
