Re: Theodoric
Thank you for my first Post of the Month Nomination. Only took me 10 years and over 5100 posts. Then again my style of argumentation does not lend itself to nominations like this. I am humbled and honored.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Rrhain provides a clear and detailed response
Author: Rrhain
Forum: Coffee House
Thread: After Palmyra ISIS Targets Monuments on U.S. Soil
Message #: 53********************************************************** Our thespian and wordsmith Rrhain did what I thought was a bangup job on this post. The thread contained many points of view regarding symbolism, authoritarianism, fascism and free expression. The author of the thread, Jon, started with this observation:
quote:
From petitioning university presidents to silence political speech to the destruction of historical sites thought heretical, the Fascist Left has been pulling pages right out of the books of some of history's greatest turds in their effort to shelter themselves and others from a world they find distasteful and - oh no! - offensive; to erase everything that does not align with their worldview.
In my opinion, Rrhain made a strong case for what the Confederate Flag represents. The Comic he posted was the best part! Two thumbs up! Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Made message link message specific.
Chance as a real force is a myth. It has no basis in reality and no place in scientific inquiry. For science and philosophy to continue to advance in knowledge, chance must be demythologized once and for all. —RC Sproul

Another great post, this from dwise1
Message 86 in the flood thread Edited by Coyote, : No reason given.
Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge. Belief gets in the way of learning--Robert A. Heinlein In the name of diversity, college student demands to be kept in ignorance of the culture that made diversity a value--StultisTheFool It's not what we don't know that hurts, it's what we know that ain't so--Will Rogers If I am entitled to something, someone else is obliged to pay--Jerry Pournelle If a religion's teachings are true, then it should have nothing to fear from science...--dwise1 "Multiculturalism" demands that the US be tolerant of everything except its own past, culture, traditions, and identity.

Edge makes it simple, obvious and irrefutable.
Message 58 of the thread The Story in the Rocks - Southwestern U.S. may be one of the most significant posts I've seen here at EvC. Wish I had done it.
Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

I agree. We are lucky to have him here at EvC.

Re: Edge makes it deceitful, dishonest and very refutable
You've fallen for a trick. Edge has never said an honest word in debate with me and that excuse for an experiment is just the usual deceit designed to shut me up and preserve his pride. It's a STU-PID experiment. {Non-POTM type message hidden - Adminnemooseus} Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Hide.

Re: Edge makes it deceitful, dishonest and very refutable
I'm sad, that's for sure, I'm sad, I'm depressed, I'm angry at all you self-serving creeps, you lying deceivers. I CARE about my arguments for the Flood but you are willing to make any old straw man and declare yourselves the winner just because SCIENCE IS GOD to you -- not true science, your lying science. Obviously a lying god. You have no respect for anything but your own standing in your own eyes. Sure does annoy you when a creationist thinks she's right and you're wrong, annoys you enough to make up a whole lot of lies to make yourself feel good. Bullies and babies. {Non-POTM type message hidden. - Adminnemooseus} Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.
