Oh, the Crevo threads were amazing donnybrooks, hundreds of FReepers just whaling away for thousands of replies. Creationists arguing with evolutionists, hence the name. To make it even more piquant, an evolutionist site called Darwin Central had a number of ringers signed up, if you kept two tabs open you could watch them strategizing, high fiving if they felt they’d “scored” a point, hooting in derision if they had no other reply, on and on. A lot of gruntles were dissed.
Where do you shake out on the matter btw, lol?
For that matter, where do you shake out on the eligibility clause? I refuse to use the pejorative “birther,” myself. I see no other choice but to believe that Obama actually is not eligible under Original Intent. I have no interest in playing Where’s Waldo over a piece of paper, it’s pointless imho.
Whether anything can let alone will be done about it, outside of his losing this election, is another matter entirely, though.
(By the way, there used to be a lot more of these comparative images on the net, but they've been quietly disappearing, one by one.)
Two great questions!
Thanks to SunkenCiv; I have a term now for my beliefs as to CREVO; Old-Earth Creationist. The earth is very old. Satan, upon banishment after the rebellion was sent here. The earth was destroyed by water at least twice. Many different life forms have existed here; they were all “created” by a Creator, but strong evidence exists to support natural selection has occurred and does occur. At the point of the Garden, a new dispensation was delineated, and “man” became a being with an eternal spirit, different from the beasts of the earth.
With regards to eligibility- I am convinced that something seriously fraudulent and disqualifying lies in the past of our current chief executive; that such a hoax was foisted upon us with nearly the whole country shining it on was a huge wake-up as to how far we have slipped while I was busy working and raising a family and expecting the US to stay solidly on track.
The rapid devolution from the good old days when patriot/adults watched over the globe in our interest has been the greatest shock in my lifetime.
