Allow me to translate - "if the court agrees that ID is unscientific junk, we'll never be able to get funded, especially with government money."

Government money is peanuts compared to what religious organizations would contribute to any research that showed the promise of revealing a creator/designer. But the Discovery Institute has tipped its hand by revealing there is no such research, and no prospects for such research.

My life aint devoted to outing every new person that decides to join the thread.

Unlike you I'm not paranoid about running background checks on everyone.

If you want a closed discussion go open your own chat room on yahooo (its free) and yap, yap, yap away all day.

Until then...


Hello...I'm right here!!

I guess I need to translate my "sheesh" for the benefit of others.


Sheesh = some people work hard at trying to get back on these Fr threads after they've already had some history here in the past.

You evo fella's (& occasional ladies) need to realize how much love others have for you.

Oh my! We are testy aren't we. Why don't you read my post and then read your response and try to find a connection. I can't.

Tee Hee Hee, a bug in his ear? or a burr under his saddle? or maybe need some Preparation H?

Yeah, but that's no good - they want the imprimatur of science, such that their theological meanderings are defined as "science", with the legitimacy attendant to that. IOW, they want to join the club, and they'd really like it if the courts made it so they could join without paying any dues or otherwise meeting the membership requirements.

Ret_medic has left the building ...

As soon as they start to build up a ping list, the thing starts to disintegrate. Just like the case for creationism. Gotta admire their determination.

Pretty good, but I really hate Tom Tomorrow, even in the rare cases where I agree with him. Like Doonesbury without the rapier wit.

I've experienced the blistering and scathing "love" creationists supposedly have for us over the past seven years. The only "love" many seem to exhibit is the love of seeing us burning forever in the Lake of Fire.

In other words, like Doonesbury.

Exactly. Note the "How about I just smite thee" cartoon in the post before yours, and how the creationist's clothing and briefcase implies that he's a lawyer, forcing his way in by court action.

7 years huh? Thats quite a commitment.
Soooo...youre kinda bitter about all that fire talk then...



Btw, thats another blanket accusation. I feel {insert daschole saddened pic} for others that dont make it to heaven...a true Christian would not get joy in seeing anyone go to hell.

I will not apologize for others. I can only say thats too bad it happened. I was not a part of that old stuff yet I receive the heat because of it.

You are assuming that with your (man's) limited understanding you can discern "typo's" in the first place.

If we can't understand "typos" how can we possibly tell design?
