Author | Topic: Thread Reopen Requests 2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Admin Director Posts: 13108 From: EvC Forum Joined: |
The last two pages degenerated, which is why Adminnemooseus closed it. There were multiple contributors to the degeneration, for an example of your own see Message 148. I'll reopen the thread, but I leave it to you to keep the thread focused on arguments from evidence rather than from incredulity and ridicule, otherwise the thread will soon be closed again.
For future reference, threads with titles that include words like "idiot" might do well at attracting participants, but not necessarily the serious ones you might like, and like a red car on the highway they tend to attract the attention of moderators, too. You might consider changing the title to something like, "Why is the Intelligent Designer Inept?"

Daniel4140 wasn't addressing the thread's topic. If Daniel4140 doesn't propose a topic to discuss his issues then someone else should do it for him. His marshaling of a number of creationist arguments against dating methods deserves to be addressed.
Your topic proposal has been promoted.

If what I think the topic is about is right, that it's to focus on the correlation between methods rather on the details of the methods themselves, then I'm okay with it. Maybe Mod will chime in.

It's a holiday weekend and I don't know when Adminnemooseus will be on line next, so I'll reopen this for you. When Adminnemooseus is next on line he can decide whether to keep it open.

Just wanted to make sure we opened the right thread. And thanks for your help with finding the source of that bug.

The thread in question is Devolution (from The Fall) and "No New Information".
In the opening post you said:
Coyote writes: Because this would be off topic on that thread, I would like to propose a thread to explore how one could come to the belief in devolution/no new information without a religious, and in particular a biblical, background. In your most recent message you said, Message 32, you said:
I would like to keep the topic to how someone could accept the geocentric belief in spite of the immense scientific evidence to the contrary. The change in focus from "devolution/no new information" to "geocentric belief" is why Adminnemooseus believed the thread to be drifting off-topic. I think I understand that what you actually intended as the thread's central focus was making the case that all beliefs of this sort are religiously motivated rather than scientifically evidenced. I'll reopen the thread, but in your next post please make clear the thread's central focus.

Try [tid=type-thread-ID-here].

Each thread has an ID number, so if you say something like [tid=13101] (where 13101 is the thread ID for this thread) then you'll get Thread Reopen Requests 2. If you hover over any link to the thread or link to a message of that thread then you'll see the thread ID displayed in the little hoverbox. And once I know what thread you're referring to I can check if it makes sense to reopen it.

Hi Buz,
About Buzsaw's perfect world, I think AdminAsgara was right to close it and that it should stay closed. Edited by Admin, : Change author.

Buzsaw writes: Hopefully the floodgate could remain open for some possible responses to my answer to Taq's question which received a five-er from someone who evidently was interested in my response. Thanks. No one has rated any of your messages in the The Impossibility Of The Flood thread, so I'm wondering if you're talking about a different thread.

Taq's rhetorical question was making a point, not requesting information.
