Natural Science 301 Guidelines

This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.

As usual, Tweb rules apply. If you haven't read them now would be a good time.

    Can you link where you presented your qualification?

      Given that he's using Glen Morton as a reference, it's undoubtedly on the old Tweb somewhere.

        Well he can just tell us his qualification then...

          what kind of scientist is Kbersche that would give him special qualification for being an authority and ex-spurt in this thread!?!?!?!?!?
          Shuny, if you know how to use Google, you should be able to find all of this (my degrees, publications, patents, etc.) yourself. I don't try to hide my identity.

          But I'm not sure why my scientific credentials matter so much to you. This thread has focused more on religion than on science. The main disagreements here have centered mainly on Christian doctrines.

            . . . because others have referred to you as a superior authority, because your a scientist. I also question your methods of equating scientific methods with your logic methods concerning theological questions we discussed.

              He can, but doing so would be most un-Shunya-like.

                This has been bugging me way too long. Shunya, if you come to a point in a sentence where what you mean is "you are" you want to use the contraction "you're", not "your".

                  I am sloppy to a minor point that I do bug anal grammarians. When I write important stuff on word I use 'spell check.'

                    Seer, if you ever had a genuine sincere interest in, and respect for science I would make the effort, but unfortunately you do not, and you have made negative view of science clear in the past.

                    At your best you prostitute science. You selfishly select what you want to meet your carnal needs and then walk away.

                      I believe this was raised by others who questioned Jichard's scientific credentials when he and I disagreed. (I have no clue what Jichard's scientific credentials are, if any.)

                      But scientists don't resolve questions by appealing to authority; we appeal to data, observation, logic, and reason. And when the questions are theological rather than scientific, scientific credentials are completely unimportant.

                      This sentence reads as gibberish to me. Can you reword or explain what you are trying to say?

                            You just selectively abuse and prostitute science to justify your own agenda.

                            Since you ridicule science and describe it as a false God what purpose would it serve to provide my qualifications as a scientist? Would any qualifications presented by by anyone be meaningful to you based on your view of science?

                            Based on your history these posts only serve as abusive ridicule to further your agenda, and that of your cheerleader gallery.
