Interesting, we both are waiting, you for "stupid remarks" and me for someone with the guts to engage in a serious Q & A type of discussion of what can be reasonably proven to be true.
Lemmeseeifigotthisright... a handful of blokes on a scarcely traveled forum complicity accept the IAU's definition of planet, causes you reject everything else out of hand, doubling down on goddidit?At one time, I was almost convinced that these guys were sincere about their scientific method, until I learned that Pluto was no longer considered a planet, and saw these guys automatically ... automatically ... without question or complaint ... accept the IAU ruling, despite the fact that it was and still is contested.
It was then that I lost almost all my respect for them and they became "paper scientists" or "Internet scientists" in my mind.
I then noticed that amateurs shove the scientific method down our throats as well.
People who can't even spell very well or use proper grammar, telling me I need an education in the sciences is highly suspect to me.
Don't try to woo me with big scientific formulas and paradigms, if you can't first tell me the seven dispensations, and the order that they came in, what was expected of mankind during each one, and what judgement of God was initiated when each one failed.
Until then, I don't want to hear E is MC squared, and light travels at a constant, and we're descended from some jungle beast, who descended from a fish, and all that other bologna.
So?
A contested reclassification.
And if it was "only a reclassification," why did they have to rig a vote behind closed doors?
Well what I didn't tell you is that, even if they would contest it, it doesn't change my thinking that scientists today are mainly doing the work of the Devil.Lemmeseeifigotthisright... a handful of blokes on a scarcely traveled forum complicity accept the IAU's definition of planet, causes you reject everything else out of hand, doubling down on goddidit?
They didn't.So?
A contested reclassification.
And if it was "only a reclassification," why did they have to rig a vote behind closed doors?
But I notice that even those who do get saved will defend their craft against the Bible as well.
Suuuure it wasn't.The vote was not rigged,
Beats me.Who is laurele?
Had a Christian organization done that, and you guys would have hooted and hollered like a godless Mardi Gras celebration.
Well, how do you know the Devil's not the good guy, in your myth?Well what I didn't tell you is that, even if they would contest it, it doesn't change my thinking that scientists today are mainly doing the work of the Devil.
Yes, this is a well observed and documented function of our psyche. It helps us to understand how reasonable and educated people can compartmentalize beliefs. It's known as amathia, literally, "intelligent stupidity."That's because there's a powerful Biblical principle in effect:
Luke 12:34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Correct, many people don't think there's anything to get "saved" from.And those who invest their time, treasures, and talents into learning the sciences without first prioritizing (getting saved), are prone to be victimized.
Well, how do you know the Devil's not the good guy, in your myth?
Judas should be celebrated as a hero, for without his wisdom and resolve of action, there's no resurrection...Has any creationist ever answered that question? I would think that perhaps some of the more honest Christians might have given it a shot.
On a related point he did not understand how Judas is a hero of the crucifixion story.
Has any creationist ever answered that question? I would think that perhaps some of the more honest Christians might have given it a shot.
Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!Judas should be celebrated as a hero, for without his wisdom and resolve of action, there's no resurrection...
Can you highlight in red what she said wrong?That's a ringing endorsement of reliability.
Can't put it on the internet if it isn't true.
Absolutely, can you learn to drive a car without having a car? And even if you could learn, how can you prove that you know how without performing the act?
Tell ya what. Get a bunch of Christians together, form an organization and vote to make Pluto a planet.Suuuure it wasn't.
Had a Christian organization done that, and you guys would have hooted and hollered like a godless Mardi Gras celebration.
