  1. The "Theory of Evolution" fails the test of being scientific. With the passing years, proponents of this failed theory are behaving more and more like religious dogmatists in their unwillingness to submit the foundations of their theory to open inquiry and discussion. Instead, they heap scorn and ridicule on their critics, insisting that anyone who has the audacity to question the truth of their sacred theory must be either stupid, insane or evil. This is the tactic, for example, of Richard Dawkins, who was reported by the New York Times as saying:

     

    ... It is absolutely safe to say that, if you meet somebody who claims not to believe in evolution, that person is ignorant, stupid, or insane (or wicked, but I'd rather not consider that). ...

     

    When the Evolutionist says that life originated without the intervention of a supernatural Being, he is making a religious assertion, not a scientific one. The fact that he may be a scientist by profession, or that he conducts his science in light of this presuppostion does not change the fact that it is a religious claim. It is no more "scientific" than the Creationist's assertion of an intervening Creator.


  2. america is one of the few places that turn down big offers of help, like lotsa cash,

     

    America accepted cash help from any nation for help unless that offer was at an extreem cost, (ie don't look next time we abuse human rites, get your nose out of the country we want to invade, etc) so to those we said no.

     

     

    sending people over (emergency service type people, I mean), etc. that's where the arrogance is, "I'll help all these people, and I don't need help from anywhere else"

     

    The people in the middle the problem were afraid of others getting hurt and causing a bigger incident than saying no would. With the people freaking out and shooting rescuers I can understand why.

     

    I am not saying it was handled perfect by any means. I just wish people could be nice. Tomorow it could be your brother dead and then read all this.


  3. I have been on for 3weeks now and find the game enjoyable. I would not have made it this long without channel 1. Now I have gotten help there and that was nice but far more than that #1 gave me a feeling of community. I was involved in more than a single player game but in a community setting. I have seen old rivalries, old friendships, and new of both form. And when people get out of hand I have been grateful for the intervention by those in charge or those that help. I thought that if #1 had this how much more then on the other named channels. I was wrong the channels I went to #4,#5 were dead I would spend 12 hours at a time with both open and get nothing. That is when I relised if that was what I had to look forward to this would get boring and lifeless fast for me. So I stick to #1. But I have to wonder since the rules state:

     

    11. Stay On Topic In Named Channels.

    Conversations may stray a little from the general purpose of the channel, but should not do so to the extent that such conversations derail the purpose of the channel. Such limitations and extents are at the discretion of the moderator in the channel.

     

    how do I continue to enjoy the EL community I have come to like so much when I fear breaking the rules by having a short RP bout with other players on #1, joking, laughing, and in general bonding to a community.

     

    I hope this was were to post this.

    Thanks for listening.

    A guy who likes EL.


  4. If this was made into a rule there would be riots (in game, on forum and beyond) from frustration. Followed by a sudden loss of players. It is a suggestion, granted. It is not popular, granted. Your outburst (vulgar and name calling) just puts you in the catagory that you try to put others in.
