No creator in the heavens above (I am the lightning)
Rest your weary mind
No demons in the furnace below (I am the frenzy)
I have realized I AM GOD

Well, why don't you tell us why you believe in young earth creationism, and why the arguments against it- which are sprawling, comprehensive and demonstrably true- have done nothing to convince you otherwise?
We've debated creationism in all its stripes many times, so we don't have much interest in rehashing everything about it, but you're here, and you at least seem willing to discuss. You're accessible, we might be able to actually get to you, when we can't to many others. So, why not take advantage of this opportunity?
Quote:Just curious: Have YOU researched challenges to evolution?
Yep: I've looked at intelligent design, the claims of creationism, etc etc... none of them hold up, scientifically speaking. If you've got any specifically you'd like to discuss, then by all means, put them out there. It's one of my favorite topics here on the forum, so I don't discard challenges to it out of hand.

When I need advice on how to do my job, I'll be sure to ask.... Someone.
What are you "breaking up" exactly? A repeated response from one person. To top it off, you want to act like a dick by "exposing" me as a whistle-blower? LOL, you are too simple man, too simple.
You sir, are acting quite hypocritical, but I'm sure you know that. 

Yep, sure am.
You know damn well there's no rule against telling someone to fuck themselves. If we did, we'd have to ban nearly everyone. Worst thing that's going to happen is a reminder in-thread to be reasonably nice - which he got. Happy?
Oh, and I do apologize - I should have told you to stop abusing the reporting system privately.
Now if you'll excuse me while I go deal with all those reports....

Somebody just doesn't know when to quit.

Why, you got more?
BTW, you're forgiven. It's nice to see at least a little honesty.
And go fuck yourself.

What do you really hope to accomplish with this, catfish?
P.S. The apology came before I saw what you did. No, I'm not retracting it.

Does this mean we interpreted the rules the same way? Say it ain't so!

And too address the op. How did plants survive without the sun and how did fish survive Noah's flood?
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
