Because this is way too funny to stop now.
Faith, you were saying?

Dr Adequate writes: Faith, you were saying? She was providing the obviously doctored video linked below as evidence. While she did additional post her reasoning for considering it non-fake, her reasoning did not include checking out the possible avenues discussed on the you tube page where the video can be found. I fully expect Faith to claim that she should not be expected to read an entire web page when citing it.

In case Faith wonders why I gave a cheer:
Of course that is faked. It's a much higher quality fakery than the video that Faith posted. I'm pretty sure that Dr Adequate posted it as an example of the kind of fakery that is possible. People used to say "a picture is worth a thousand words." But that was before we mastered techniques of digital image manipulation.Fundamentalism - the anti-American, anti-Christian branch of American Christianity

Personally, I don't know how you guys can keep your sanity discussing the various topics with people like faith. I try to avoid getting into such discussion nowadays. I don't want to have another mental breakdown.

I don't know how you guys can keep your sanity Maybe we are lacking in some sanity. Isn't it insanity to expect different results from taking the same actions? In any event, I find the latest debacle both hilarious and illuminating. Je Suis Charlie Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison.

Personally, I look at people's positions, see how they counter hers, and then if I am undecided about something, go the exact opposite because I have never seen her right about something.

It certainly was odd to find her & Percy agreeing in the diet thread.

Personally, I don't know how you guys can keep your sanity discussing the various topics with people like faith. I try to avoid getting into such discussion nowadays. I don't want to have another mental breakdown. Because it is a way to expose common and uncommon creationist concept to scientific review, to expose the shortfalls and invalid logic. Because the purpose is not to convert Faith and the like, but to educate the lurkers reading the threads, people who may not have the scientific education but want to learn. Because it is a way to learn from others in different fields. Because it is entertainment -- as long as you don't take it too seriously. by our ability to understand Rebel☮American☆Zen☯Deist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share.

You're sacrificing your sanity to educate others LOL.
I really don't have the patience that you guys display, especially dealing with someone that lies right through her teeth all the while claiming moral superiority.

If you have been here long enough, you come to think of Faith as a friend. Maybe a weird friend, but still a friend.Fundamentalism - the anti-American, anti-Christian branch of American Christianity

welcome to the fray coffee_addict

It's all about perspective and intellectual detachment: the facts support the argument or they invalidate the argument, irregardless of who is making which argument. Is the argument impossible, implausible, improbable, possible, plausible or probable based on what we know from evidence.
