Where's Hovind from? I suggest we poison the water supply, no more must be allowed to get out.

I don't know what you're accusing me of, but the water canopy thing is straight from Hovind's arsehole. As is almost everything Huggy is regurgitating. I'm not poisoning anything.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

how am I grasping at straws? I just show an example of a planet surrounded by water in it's upper atmosphere...

So you can't say it's not possible.

Quote:When astronomers looked toward the planet WASP-121b, they were searching for evidence of an atmosphere. What they didn't expect to see was a stratosphere made up of water so hot, it was glowing.

You were saying?

Um, you do realize that you were arguing for the conditions on Earth prior to "The Flood" when some of those characters in your favorite book were supposedly wandering around, right?

I'm not sure why you think that invoking a planet, "WASP-121b, which is 880 light-years away from us . . . a hot Jupiter-like planet. . . [but with] a greater mass and radius than Jupiter . . .  [and an] atmosphere [that] is heated to 2,500 degrees Celsius -- so hot that iron can exist only as a gas, instead of a solid" in any way helps your case. If you want to overturn the results of earth science as we know it, you'll need to do a hell of a lot better than that.

I don't get it.  Not even the authors of the story were stupid enough to believe what the Hugster's suggesting.  They simply conceptualized space as a great celestial ocean, and our sky as the seperation between that ocean and our oceans.......as we continue to do today.  

There's no requirement, in biblical christianity, to be -that- dumb.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

It may not be required, but I suspect Huggy thinks there are extra credit points if one debases oneself just a little more than the next guy.

Where did I say the Earth existed under the same conditions? I was simply showing an example of a planet surrounded by water.

I'd imagine that a hot stratosphere made of water wouldn't necessarily equate to the earth being hot on the surface seeing how the radiation from the sun is being completely blocked.

Is it not true that at one point the whole earth was a tropical climate?

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Not anytime after the Agricultural Revolution, which is the period in question.

Or are you one of those Christians who "interpret" the OT genealogies to fit into whatever pigeon hole you require at any moment?

So your answer didn't really answer the question.
