For August, 2005 (as per previous months):
quote: A link to the message, and perhap a SHORT comment would also be nice. But, this is NOT a place to debate the referenced topic - so be nice. I think that a fairly liberal use of this topic would be a good thing for indexing some nice messages that are otherwise doomed to be lost in the clutter. So, if you encounter a message that seems to say something of special substance, please give it a plug/reference in this topic. New month, new moderator, same old message and routine,

The only flaw here is that the subtitle is some left over junk from a jillion posts ago. The rest is clear and thoughtful.

You're very kind.

RM is attempting to package up some of the input facts to the discussion. He also shows an understanding of the need for quantification. This is a POTM partly because of it's content but as much because it seems to show a progression and learning on RM's part.

Forum: Social and Religious Issues Thread: Should intellectually honest fundamentalists live like the Amish? Post #: 215 Faith finally just comes out and says it. Age must not be a factor in looking for oil because the earth is young because the Bible says so. Even though she continues with her bare assertion in ignorance of geology, she has a well written post that finally get to the point. I felt after that post that there was finally some honesty coming from Faith. No smoking signs by gas stations. No religion in the public square. The government should keep us from being engulfed in flames on earth, and that is pretty much it. -- Jon Stewart, The Daily Show |
