Wow!, Its roughly 8pm Monday here. So we are a day and 6 hours behind you roughly? It's hard to handle for me, does it bother you?,:)
No - It's actually quite useful.

I get to hear the news well before you do. I'm also trying to figure out how to bet on US horseracing from here since I get the results the day before the race is even run.

My today is your tomorrow
My yesterday is your today

I've thought of that before. They've made movies based on that premise. We used to have horse racing here. I loved going and betting. Low stakes. Dog racing was big here also and it's gone. I wonder what happened? There's an interesting topic going on right now. Lots of input. I'll see if i can find it for you.

That one is in a Christians Only Forum. I've dropped in occasionally to see how it's going. It looks like the Barbarian will sort it out.

I was just having a similar conversation over in the open Evolution Forum. The issue is usually lack of knowledge on the part of the Creationists allied with a stubborn disinclination to learn.

Bidens here in az tonight
Barb doesn't allow for anyone else to have an opinion.

I think he's very tolerant - almost gentle - given the rubbish he's getting. Typically, in these conversations the goal posts get shifted all around the paddock by Creationists trying to avoid justifying the vague statements they tend to make.

The Barb is always willing to provide more explanations if his interlocutors are interested. They are rarely interested.

I've been meaning to ask you - What is your avatar?

It looks like a knitted, badly stuffed puffin in strange colours - but I could be wrong :scratch:

Most of CF is 'Christians Only'. We're restricted to the social type forums along with an open access Debate & Discussion which includes an Evolution/Creation Forum. There is also a Christians Only version of the Evolution/Creation Forum.

Since CF is a forum for Christians, I have no problem with restricting access by non-Christians. Sometimes discrimination is not unreasonable. I have no particular interest or expertise in Christian dogma or theology. I only become interested where Christian beliefs interact with my world in a negative way.

I would like to hear everyone's opinion. Thanks for the explanation. I would have liked to hear opinions in that particular thread.
