Yes, but the fact that he does it is bothering me.

Is that simply a way of ignoring his words? I think so.

I did not say that. For the record: I dislike those that mindelessly ridicule. Hence why i like it here so much.

People should not be kicked out without a very good reason.

When a discussion gets to that point I feel it needs to be placed in the "agree to disagree" catergory in case it spills elsewhere to the detriment of all.

Still no answers then .
Come on surely you can explain the rainbow .

This is becoming tiring. Why don't you get over the fact that you aren't contributing to the problems at hand? Here's you the rainbow!!!

A rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon that causes a nearly continuous spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the Sun shines onto droplets of moisture in the Earth's atmosphere. It takes the form of a multicoloured arc, with red on the outside and violet on the inside.

The rainbow's appearance is caused by dispersion of sunlight as it is refracted by (approximately spherical) raindrops. The light is first refracted as it enters the surface of the raindrop, reflected off the back of the drop, and again refracted as it leaves the drop. The overall effect is that the incoming light is reflected back over a wide range of angles.

:dancinglock:, wow just at him go! Dancing day and night...

Are we agreeing or disagreeing the fact that he's a menace that mindlessly ridicules?

Everything is right except for the part of "sense" and "rediculing". You're not trying to "knock" some sense, but the opposite, Tribesman is for one a more informed person and older than you, perhaps when you and crossroad read a little more will realize that the debate in itself if for weak minded people or with a weak faith. You need to get some sense of reality and logics, some sense of religion and science, and then perhaps you'll not even have the necessity to fall in the redicule or in pointless discussions as this one. On the other hand what is ridicule here is not you, but creationism in itself, and so everyone who adopts that "theory" and defends it could be treated as an ignorant by its very definition.

Take a chillpill.

Ignore things you find insulting, it will make life so much easier...

and this forum a bit more relaxed. Let the Backroom staff handle possible breaching of the forum rules.

This is meant for all participating patrons.

He certainly hasn't shown his "more informed" side. I'm only hacking on him because he has been mindlessly ridiculing, and in a discussion of mature induviduals, that is looked down upon.

(Yes, yes, unless God magically protected the plants, or magically put them back or whatever.... fanwank )

EDIT: Zain, you know you can put people in an ignore list, don't you ?

Seeds, doc, seeds! Read the flood account and you will see that the tops of mountains could have been exposed for months before the ark came to rest on mount Ararat. Plants would have had time to regrow.

Ah an answer , thankyou .
Now could you explain how light didn't react in that way before the flood ?

Because it didn't rain, it always was mist.

Oh it didn't rain , I see , are you making it up as you go along ?
You must try harder , ever stood by a small cascade , funny little coloured thing appears there in the mist , I think it is called a rainbow:juggle2:
Wrong answer Zain , the only answer for a creationist is that God altered the properties of light .
See its easy .

Again there's no mature discussion here, you're in a debate that little children in kindergarden could have. A debate in wich two basic foundamental concepts are misunderstood by one of the parties all along the four pages. I'll not enter the background debate however because that was many times discussed here and it becomes a tireless bunch of nothingness.
Anyhow, I think that the debate going on in the other Banquo's thread might be interesting... Notice that if you didn't read the entire Bible you might be missing parts just about everything necessary to defend creationism, and even if you read it completely five times and you defend creationism then you (refering to anyone) might want to go back to high school and restart it. And I'm not just talking about believing that God is an actual thing formed of matter that happens to be everywhere, I refer you to the parts when the writers of the Bible show the typical moral values of their time and that applied now could carry another epoch of facism or plain savagery and fanatic slaughtering.

Saying that God doesn't anything does nothing but rattle you Evolutionists up. I said it without mentioning God, the way I'm sure would be more believable to the unbeliever. I have heard that it only misted before the flood, but by reading something on the net, it says that it did in-fact, rain before the flood, and God simply changed the process of light.

if by "staff action" you mean handing out some "oh noes!!!1!", then i'm okay with that.

Just FYI - for all involved in this debate - this thread will remain closed as I do not see that this has developed positively after my last post (just the opposite it seems).

Thanks to those who have tried to keep this debate civil for quite a long time
