"Your semantic game is what it is - there's no need to misrepresent it."

I knew you couldn't support your statement, "If you were correct, and the entropy of elevated snow and ice was higher than that of liquid water at a lower elevation, then hydroelectric generation wouldn’t work as it does at the Hoover Dam - where the majority of the water flowing through the dam and turning the turbines in the spring is melted snow and ice."

Pretending you don't need to is a nice try. Not.

"fallible and uninspired men, have assumed dominion over the faith of others, setting up their own opinions and modes of thinking as the only true and infallible, and as such endeavoring to impose them on others, hath established and maintained false religions over the greatest part of the world, and through all time; " ---The Virginia Act For Establishing Religious Freedom ---Thomas Jefferson, 1786 http://religiousfreedom.lib.virginia.edu/sacred/vaact.html

Funny that the implication is that this doesn't apply to you simply because you posted it. Look in the mirror, Mr. Bill. This is exactly what you do.

"Luckily, for American Individual Citizens - the Law says that dogmatic tyrants, folks of your ilk, don't get become the Pharaoh's Inquisitor or burn "heretics" like me for recognizing the self-evident Truth that the dirt beneath our feet is slightly older than 6000 years."

LOL! Now I'm of the 'dogmatic tyrant' ilk, eh Mr. Bill. And, oh my, you used the 'ilk' word. How powerful (not). Even better, you get to say that the law says I don't get to 'burn heretics like you'. Can you say paranoia, Mr. Bill?

What was that you posted about "setting up their own opinions and modes of thinking as the only true and infallible"? Keep taking Mr. Bill. You only get better. LOL!

And you think it's 'self-evident' that the dirt is older than 6,000 years? Really? Does dirt have a date-stamp on it Mr. Bill? If it's so 'self-evident', why do we need scientists to tell us that we should believe that? If it's 'self-evident', shouldn't it really be self-evident? Or is this a new usage for the term 'self-evident'.

"Does your game - that drives a wedge between Faith and Science in the minds of the fleeced, lead individuals into accepting the gift of reconciliation with their Creator? NO, it does not; just the opposite in fact, Mr. Pharisee."

Ooh, more projection and name-calling from Mr. Bill. What a surprise.

"Deal with it."

Deal with name-calling and projection over facts and arguments? Keep talking Mr. Bill. You're doing a fine job.

Yep.  Most reasonable folks do nowadays.
 
We pretty much figured out that whole "The Sun is Apollo and a flaming chariot" thing is Bovine excrement too.
 
No Fleece for YOU!

So now you’re willing to admit that a molecule of Ice atop Mt Everest has lower entropy and higher potential energy than a molecule of water in the Indian Ocean? Yes or No?
