Re: Adminnemooseus given POTM for message 2
I agree that the Admins persecute non-evos actively........if you, as so many admins have stated, think that being a scientific creationist makes you logically invalid (and I agree, BTW), then you shouldn't call this the "evolution vs. creation" forum. You should call it the "here's why creationism is wrong, and we'll restrict your participation level if you disagree too much" forum.
Now, if you want to keep hardcore creationists out of strictly scientific debate, that's fine. But, in those cases, the evo admins should be allowed to both participat in AND moderate a thread. I've seen many an admin on here participate in a debate and, when things get heated, pull the admin card to give themselves an unfair advantage. And there's no reason there shouldn't be intelligent design admins, as intelligent design advocates are 100% scientific in their approach, regardless of whether or not you regard them as 100% scientific in the conclusions they reach.
Also, not every subject on here IS strictly scientific.......many are philosophical, and those forums SHOULD HAVE CREATIONIST ADMINS.

Re: Using the admin card
However, I think it will be necessary for you to show where someone has been chastised (and more, moved to boot camp or suspended) for disagreeing too much instead of violating forum guidelines such as supporting assertions with evidence, making the case yourself and respecting others.
I've seen everyone on these boards violate the rules, in some small way. But the punishment isn't dealt out even-handedly.

Re: Admin duties
We do have a strong disagreement with those who claim to be creation "scientists" and want to meddle with the eductional system.
Why? Atheists have been meddling with said system for years. You teach evolution (which is fine), and then insert abiogenesis........to make it look like materialistic abiogenesis is as supported and universally accepted as evolution. You've made Big Bang theory synonymous with evolution to the layman's mind, so that many regretably ignorant people don't realize that the Big Bang actually had THEISTIC suggestion to it. his is intentional misleading. Creationism shouldn't be taught in science classes, but neither should atheism.........

Re: Adminnemooseus given POTM for message 2
You've been a member less than a full month and you've seen many an admin do this?
But I can read posts from years ago, if I wish......

Re: Admin duties
Ned brought up some really good questions that you could answer. Please do so. If you want to debate what should be in the educational curriculum, there is a forum for that.
Hey, Ned brought up the topic........

Re: Adminnemooseus given POTM for message 2
Of course, and if you want to cite specific complaints, go ahead, but making broad generalizations that the admins are unfair to 'non-evos' is itself unfair without evidence.
Ok, how about, to start with, the Admins usually suspend and band theists? Correct?

Re: Adminnemooseus given POTM for message 2
Excuse. Take a peek over at the more current posts in the Abiogenesis by the Numbers thread to get a look at some of that bad behavior........if those were theists, they'd have been in boot camp by now.
