FACT: NOBEL PRIZES AWARDED TO JEWS WORKING FROM THE BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW



http://worldview3.50webs.com/nobelprizesjewish.html

Ahem... do I need to point out that some of the people on the list didn't win one of the SCIENCE prizes?

FACT: NOTABLE INVENTIONS AND DISCOVERIES FROM THE PAST 800 YEARS BY THOSE WORKING FROM THE BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW OF NATURE





http://worldview3.50webs.com/inventions.html

Taking a second look at this latest ahem fact, I am becoming less intrigued by the shall we say bizarre inclusing in the list, and more by what is missing.

No evolution (big surprise there). No relativity (even though, appatantly, Einstein worked from a Biblical worldview ). No Big Bang. None of the scientific discoveries regarding the early origins of Man.

Not even the periodic table of elements, or von Linné's taxinomy. I could understand the fear of the second (well...., he classified us as primates ), but one would have to explain to me how a classification of chemical element is a dangerous thing to acknowledge as being science.

Canadien, I moved our discussion about being a Christian in a separate topic.

Canadien, I moved our discussion about being a Christian in a separate topic.

Let's be clear. The fact that I am a Christian is a topic for discussion between me and my Lord and Saviour (and my priest). Not you. Nor am I interested in your attempt at distorting what I say and mistepresentating m'y beliefs so that you push that non-sense insult at science and faith otherwise known as the"Intelligent Design Theory". I said all I need to say about what my faith is, and it is clear enough that there is no need for (mis)interpretation, so it is closed. No matter how many new threads you create so that you can say "Look how right I am, I have all those threads".

Period.

Betsy, I posted my comments here, and I will post my follow-ups here. Unless you are one of the moderators, you do not decide what i post and where. I do.

As for Canadien, here's a response from him posted in The Bible. I moved it here since this is the appropriate thread for it.

Does that mean you won't answer if you believe that God is the Creator, or the Intelligent Designer?

If my posting and the previous one are not clear enough, if the APOSTLES'S CREED is not clear enough, then both the Creed and the English language are joining the growing list of things you do not understand.

Unless you are either:

God
one of His Angels
one of the Saints
the Pope (yes, I am Catholic)
my Bishop, or
my priest

You are not the judge of what I believe, how I live what I believe, how I express what I believe. Any comment, any questioning you write about my faith will get no more response, whether you write it here, on another thread or in the Heavens. I would even take the comments of atheists on this site about what my faith is or should be before yours because, as wrong as they may be, they manage not be arrogant ignoramuses.

This is a topic that I created for discussion about the Bible. We both stumbled onto another issue - being a Christian - which opens up a great opportunity for more in depth discussion.

Our discussion as to the meaning of being a christian does not belong here. Should you wish to continue the discussion, kindly go to the topic "What is a Christian." After all, it is this very discussion that we've stumbled onto that's been the inspiration for that topic.

I ask that out of courtesy and respect - not only to the BIBLE to which this topic is reserved for - but to Mapleleaf Forum and all its members, to please help keep our discussions organized. The board has its rules. Surely, as you are not an ignorant person, you don't think a moderator is needed to settle this.

Thank you for your cooperation.

And what part of I AM DONE DSICUSSING THE FACT I AM A CHRISTIAN WITH YOU is too hard for you to grasp?

As for curtsery and respect.. How about you start showing some towards the Bbie and stop treating it as something it is not, a science textbook and a tool to be used to fight science you do not like or understand (such as evolution).

And show some curtesy and respect to the other posters by, among other things, stopping your riduclous attempt at resurecting a conversation which I will not have with you.

How about out of courtesy and respect you stop acting like a 12 year old that just started using the internet and stop using giant font and an army of smileys in all of your posts?

That was my initial thought after reading betsy's post, as well.

[betsy]

There are rules to off-topic discussions. But there are no rules against font sizes.

There are just those who'd like to dictate how we should do things - from what we should and shouldn't drink to what we shouldn't eat to how we should write in a forum.

It's not the font sizes that really bothers some of these whiners, but rather the fact that they have nothing else to rebutt.

And if the font sizes indeed bother you guys....well boo-hoo-hoo.

Stop whining like a 4-year old and learn that not everybody are lemmings like you....or peas that cuddle in the security of your same cozy pod. Some want to do things differently. Some want to have their own style. A lot of 12 year olds actually do.

So, wipe those teary eyes and snotty noses. I'm used to toddlers and pre-schoolers, so your tantrums don't work on me.

There was no diktat; there was a request that you stop using what is, in internet etiquette, tantamount to shouting and blowing rasberries; i.e. schoolyard behaviour.

Of course, all you can offer in response is:

It's evident you're used to toddlers and pre-schoolers.

Well, your polite request had been politely turned down.

And the reasons were explained. The most important of which is....certain posters here seem to have poor eyesight.They seem to skip some important points being made in the discussion(s).
So in a way, I'm also trying to do them a favor.

That you still harp about it though, moves it beyond just mere "request."

And fyi, using all capitals is shouting in internet etiquette. And speaking of etiquette and schoolyard behaviour coming from mostly all new atheists actively barking on this forum.....need I say more?

No surprise there.

No surprise there.

That goes for the smileys too!
With regrets.

Boy, you do whine about a lot of things....
