Thank you. I admit to all I am the one who hit the abuse button.
(So this is where folks are hiding)
Welcome back my friend. :-)
You are welcome...I had hoped that someone would hit the abuse button on that one...I myself have never hit the abuse button, and have no idea what happens when you do...
I have never seen you go over the line. I am glad you are here. :-)
I've heard the argument that earth is in such a unique position that life would be impossible if things were just slightly different.
That makes sense.
Life is only possible from preceding life.
Not if silicon and AI takes off. :-)
Now why did I say 'You are welcome'...You were not thanking me...guess my reading comprehension this evening, is poor, to say the least...
You weren't the only one, RadioAstronomer.
zeeba neighba, go play on another thread until you cool off. Friendly advice meant very sincerely.
Well, sometimes I feel like I am going over the line...I guess I just dont know where the line is, and I always fear getting banned...
Your friends can call Christians here the most vile names, but let one of us respond in kind, and it's crybaby time.
Please provide examples of equivalent posts to back up your assertion.
This thread certainly has legs....
It seems we agree that people will die for beliefs even if the belief is a lie...assuming they do not know it to be a lie.
I just did not understand how what you said related to my statement. The 'knowledge' part of it is unclear.
For your assertion to have meaning, the resurrection of Jesus needs to be assumed. The assumption that Jesus did rise from the dead can not be used as proof that he did rise from the dead. This begging the question is the problem.
I'm going. It would be nice though, sometime, to see them called for the thuggery they commit.
Thank you so much.
I oppose abortion from conception onward, I am in agreement with Jefferson on the value of public education though I am convinced that public funding via voucher is a much better mechanism than what we now have and I oppose isolationist Foreign Policy as a general rule.
And yes we have had spirited debates, you, I and ole OWK.
And I am a Catholic but more than that I am a Christian which is why I reject out of hand any argument that God simply planted the seeds and then sat back and observed.
I hear ya. I try to be polite. Sometimes I think I get out of line as well (hope not). But I try to treat people here like I was talking to them face to face. :-)
The real world has been intruding on my FR time. Its that way sometimes.
Looks like I arrived at just the right/wrong time.
So, who's on first?
Thats really the best policy, and perhaps one that we should all remember...I think being that we are not face to face, but more or less anonymous at our keyboards, some folk tend to forget that there are real live people at the other end, and real live people watching everything we post...
But if we consider what we say on FR, and then imagine if we would or could possibly say that face to face with someone, we might actually change what we say, the way we say it, and with what tone we say it...
"So, who's on first?"
Yes.
At least we have established that you are dishonest. Sherman and his group are highly respected, and all the content of the book is completely statistically validated. Your fear of reality is to be expected of any person hiding behind evolution philosophy.
