From what I've read here, the level of debate is well above that kind of silliness.

You haven't been paying attention. FR has a number of geocentrists, and they are never challenged by their fellow evolution critics.

We also have folks who deny that HIV causes AIDS, that Einstein is wrong (not just incomplete), that the speed of light and the force of gravity can vary dramatically, and that the rates of radioactive decay can vary dramatically.

I'd be surprised if some of those ideas aren't ostracized here, but with that said, I see nothing wrong with speculation about most anything. That is how new laws and principles are discovered. By guessing and speculating. I'm just someone who would never point to some ideas and say that it is cemented, and never to be examined again. I just don't feel the need for such a line. I guess the only real difference between us, is that I don't see science as everything.

If I wanted to bang my head against every crazy idea someone had, it would probably be most fun in the UFO threads. :)
