That is the way God created and designed this light to work. It is really simple, God created the moon to shine in phases, unlike the sun that shines full all of the time.
It's on a timer with a dimmer switch? :laughing:

The sun sets in the evening.

Now who's mocking ?
That wasn't mocking.
If D Taylor had said, "it is my belief that the moon has a dimmer switch" and I had said, "ha, ha, what a silly idea," that would be mocking.
He didn't say anything of the kind; he said the moon shines in phases. The idea of a dimmer switch was mine, and it was such a ridiculous one that I was laughing at myself.

And it was mocking.
D. Taylor did not mention a dimmer switch, he said the moon shines in phases.
That suggested to me the idea of a dimmer switch, which amused me.
Besides, did you not notice the ? in my post?

If you say so :rolleyes:
It's not a case of me saying so. There is a great difference between making fun of oneself, as Strong in Him did, and making fun of others. The latter is wrong. I cannot see why you feel that Strong in Him is wrong to mock herself. She even explained: "The idea of a dimmer switch was mine, and it was such a ridiculous one that I was laughing at myself." So, no need to roll your eyes.

I said so; that was my explanation.
If D Taylor believes that I was mocking him, or if he read my post that way; of course I would apologise.

Either way, it wasn't addressed to you.

I know it was mocking
You don't know it was mocking.
I gave you my explanation and my motive - you clearly don't accept it, even though I wasn't talking to you.
But you can't possibly know more about my motives/reasoning than I do.

Well either way it was funny.
