Creation Museum

[Welsh cake]

It all started AT AGE 8 my first passion was history, geography, biology sports and arts.

I’m honestly really happy for you, truly I am. I wish I was this talented. Your experience really shows in the detail of your work. The sculptures are amazing to look at.

If you have notice most the picture in Castlepaloma hub are about history and culture, plants, animal and there is a branch of science to all of it.

Not really, and that’s putting it politely. You talk about arts and crafts mostly. The rest is a rant about god, the soul and love which is nothing to do with any branch, research or study of science. For example, trying to develop, oh say, a cure-all drug for cancer is outside your expertise, resource and abilities, just as much as running a marathon is outside mine. We all have our limits. You need to humble yourself just a little bit and focus on what you excel at.

I’ve toured every continue on earth to share first or second and rarely third handed down research from scientist, museum, historian, biologist and entertainment businesses worldwide. What has mainly paved the way is Sand sculpting (a dream job) was voted as one of the "Top Ten Careers in the World". For the majority of sculptors. Just because I’m World class in one thing does not mean I cannot be world class in many other things like in sports, travel, film, museum displays, animation Children TV and education and off grid green homes and lifestyles I have worked, taught and coached both commercial successfully worldwide.

Marvellous, and I wish you every success in the future too.

I do not claim to be a scientist, not like teacher (not doer) of science RD.

Neither I am, but we don’t have to be scientists to understand what scientists actually do. We don't have to be experts in the fields of medicine to appreciate the R&D gone into developing new treatments mentioned in medical journals. All we need is open-mindedness and a desire to learn.

Would YOU tell RD to stop being himself

WTF? What are you talking about? What has Richard Dawkins possibly done to you that caused you any real harm or grievance?

The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins is like declaration of war upon mainstream religion. Then he looks at all spirituality as the Enemies of Reason, after all his miscellaneous ramblings of a surgeon/scientist on medicine, so much of it is third and fourth hand me down information. I personal do not find Dawkins objective scientist, he is a cunning agent for the militant atheist arm.

*sigh* So this is where you decided in your post to go "off the rails" is it? No sir, you are talking absolute and complete utter nonsense. Neither Dawkins nor his non-fiction books are declaring war on organised religion. This is not some conspiracy of James Bond villain proportions either. Do you have some sort of persecution complex? If you honestly think that then you seriously need to consider reading ‘The God Delusion’ first before arriving to erroneous biased presuppositions from the critical reception reviews of the bat-shit-crazy creationists who grace this planet with their underwhelming ignorance.

I’m a lover/artist not a fighter and I don’t tell anyone to SHUT THE F**K UP then give them kudos points for it. Yep, that is your right on this Atheist forum so continue, no skin off me because it just words.
...
If many of you think you do not want to share with me, then I can easily leave the forum no question asked. There are plenty of other sites that would be happy to have me, if you think I have nothing to offer here.

Are you simply just pissed off that I discovered you are Castlepaloma? Why? What does it matter? And in any case why on earth would you think that if you assumed an alias-name then cut-and-paste your own blogs from your hubpage here that we wouldn’t eventually catch on? This is the public domain, information is shared. All we have to do is Google your posts. Takes five seconds to search. Not a particularly hard thing to do.

Or are you just embarrassed by your own comments in the Hub for failing to understand that atheism and agnosticism are addressing very separate issues or that Albert Einstein was not a spiritualist, but an atheist? If you have a language barrier preventing you from grasping the subtleties in people's letters or responses on given topic matters that's fair enough, but it doesn't explain your apparently increasing irate tone. You tell me.

I’m not against anyone or any group; it is my human right to question any discrimination or any Religion or atheist and so on and so on. Artists are like the Nervous system of society and I follow other artist view points, since everyone is an artist from low to high degrees everyone one has a right to their own opinion. The number one fear in America (of all places) is fear of public speaking. So you got two choices, join global public opinion or you’re with the other side, super power militarily complex of the greedy rich. I wish for all us to become closer to oneness rather than suffering separating people as we are in the same boat together.

What does any of this have to do with you being an artist/sculptor?

Atheists have lame imaginations
With 3% atheist and not dominating any show accept science, that is already proof in the pudding.

Now you are making a condescending arse of yourself. Do you realise that I am an artist myself? I'm not professional like you nor do I freelance or commission my services to others (I have a full time job preventing me) but there's nothing lacking in the creative side of my brain. I imagine all kinds of shit in my head. Like something out of H.P. Lovecraft, only gay. Do I believe any of what I think up is objectively real in reality? Of course not.

I'm not good enough to give you a kudos point for that?

I give you guys Kudos for that and could not wear those kind of shoes.

Does it take kudos for someone who is different than you, to kick him around on this site?

Chill out. A “kudos” is merely recognition from other members here that they agree with your post’s content and material. Its nice to get praise but its simply an expression of approval and commendation. Nothing to get worked up over. Just because you don't get any doesn't make you "inferior" neither does getting as many as Min does a week make you superior (though he may argue otherwise) XD

For example, my art used to get ignored all the time. Other popular artists (who shall not be named) would borrow one of my ideas and get praise and attention for it. I'd receive no credit at all but I'm not bitter about it. Its about the art. Not the reception. My work, like my posts here, are a testament to my character.

Now, you're making a colossal tit of yourself, but you can improve. Its your call. Are you going to listen and learn? Or bash much-loved and respected people like Richard Dawkins for no good reason and have a shorter stay with us than intended?

I personally hope you stay.
